The Kussmaul BB-8 Bus Bar provides a heavy-duty 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-8 provides a centralized connection point for large-gauge wiring while helping installers create secure, organized, and professional electrical systems.
Constructed from a 1/4-inch thick nickel-plated copper bus bar, the BB-8 features eight 5/16-inch studs positioned on 1-inch centers to accommodate 5/16-inch ring terminals and high-current electrical connections. The bus bar is rated for 500 amps and includes a clear insulating protective cover that helps prevent accidental short circuits while maintaining visibility of wiring connections. Keyed mounting bases allow multiple bus bars to interlock and connect with compatible terminal strips for expandable electrical distribution systems.
