FBS Range

The FBS busbar supports offer an adaptable solution for flat conductors.

The FBS supports are capable of achieving Icw ratings of up to 50 kA/1 s. The innovative design accommodates a range of conductor sizes from 3 mm to 10 mm in one support. The supports are sold as bottoms and tops, giving the ability to stack a number of tops to give a wide range of configurations.

  • Up to 50 kA/1 s fault rating
  • Stackable units to give a range of configurations
