What great information from you guys! Anyone who saves these tables
should be able to design bus bars with confidence.<br><br>
Thank you,<br><br>

I found the information available online at the Copper Development
Association website to be valuable for DC applications:<br>

Thank you for that good information. <br>
<br>
Where do you find the specifications relating cross sectional area to
amperage? Section 366.23 of the NEC allows 1000 A / sq. in. of cross
sectional area of the conductor. Is that a good rule of thumb, or is
there something more specific to battery busing?<br>

<dd>I have always bought the appropriately sized for the anticipated
current, copper bar stock from McMaster Carr and cut, drilled and applied
heat shrink myself<br><br>

<dd>Hello Wrenches,<br><br>
<dd>I am wiring a set of 2 V Concorde batteries for 48 V. Each battery
has 2 terminals which will be about 2 1/2 inches away from the terminals
they will be wired to. Standard battery jumpers would be ridiculous in
this situation. Busbars would be clean and efficient. Concorde doesn't
have a solution.<br><br>
<dd>Does anyone know of a source for busbars?<br><br>
<dd>Thank you,<br><br>
