ELEKTROPLAST 3-Phase Fork Busbar 80A 16mm2 18-Module S18 3F-10

The ELEKTROPLAST 3-phase fork busbar is a professional-grade electrical component engineered for efficient and reliable power distribution within electrical switchboards. Designed to facilitate the connection of modular devices, this fork-type busbar provides a robust solution for bridging multiple circuit breakers or residual current devices in three-phase electrical systems, ensuring a clean and organized installation.

Advantages

This busbar offers significant benefits for electrical panel assembly by reducing the need for complex wiring and individual jumpers. Its fork-type design allows for quick and secure installation, minimizing the risk of loose connections and improving overall electrical safety. The high current rating and optimized cross-section ensure stable power delivery, while the 18-module length provides sufficient coverage for standard distribution board configurations, leading to a more professional and maintainable setup.

Suitable for

• Three-phase electrical distribution boards
• Connecting multiple modular circuit breakers
• Installation of residual current devices (RCDs)
• Professional electrical panel wiring

This busbar may not be suitable for single-phase systems or applications where the modular spacing does not align with the standard fork pitch. It is also not intended for use in high-vibration environments where specialized terminal connections might be required instead of standard fork-type busbars.

Key specifications

• Phase configuration: 3-phase
• Current rating: 80A
• Cross-section: 16mm2
• Module capacity: 18 modules
• Connection type: Fork

To use the busbar, first ensure that the power supply to the switchboard is completely disconnected. Measure and cut the busbar to the required length if necessary, ensuring that the ends are properly insulated. Align the fork terminals with the connection points of the modular devices and insert them securely. Tighten the terminal screws on the circuit breakers or RCDs to ensure a firm mechanical and electrical connection, verifying that no copper is exposed beyond the terminal area.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the compatibility of the fork pitch with your specific modular devices
• Ensure the 18-module length is sufficient for your switchboard layout
• Check that the 80A current rating meets the requirements of your electrical circuit
• Confirm that the 16mm2 cross-section is appropriate for your system load

For optimal safety and performance, always ensure that all terminal screws are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications and that the busbar is installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical regulations.
