The Kussmaul BB-2/8 Bus Bar provides a heavy-duty, versatile electrical distribution solution for high-amperage DC systems in fire apparatus, ambulances, rescue vehicles, command vehicles, and other specialty vehicles. Designed for use as either a DC ground tie point or positive distribution bus, the BB-2/8 combines high-current stud connections with multiple screw terminals to support both large-gauge cables and smaller electrical circuits within a single organized wiring assembly.
Constructed from a 1/4-inch thick nickel-plated copper bus bar, the BB-2/8 features two 5/16-inch studs for high-current connections and eight #8 screw terminals for additional electrical distribution. Rated for 500 amps, the bus bar provides dependable conductivity for demanding vehicle electrical systems. A clear insulating protective cover helps prevent accidental short circuits while maintaining visibility of wiring connections, and keyed mounting bases allow the unit to interlock with compatible bus bars and terminal strips for expandable electrical installations.
