Bus bar Rittal SV 9684.012, copper, length 1185 mm, 1 pc

Rittal SV 9684.012 is a solid copper bus bar supplied as a single piece with an overall length of 1185 mm. Intended for use in electrical distribution and busbar systems within switchgear and control cabinets, this bus bar features integrated mounting holes for direct installation and provides a low-resistance conductive path for power distribution. The plain copper construction makes it suitable for applications requiring high conductivity and stable electrical connections.

Advantages

The solid copper construction ensures high electrical conductivity and low voltage drop across connections. Integrated mounting holes simplify installation and alignment inside enclosures, reducing the need for separate fastening components. As a single-piece bus bar, it offers mechanical robustness and consistent electrical performance across its length, making it easy to incorporate into standard busbar arrangements and distribution systems.

Suitable for

• Power distribution within switchgear and control cabinets
• Busbar systems requiring a single, continuous copper conductor
• Applications where integrated mounting holes speed up assembly
• Industrial and commercial electrical panels with space for a 1185 mm bar

When it may not be suitable

This bus bar may not be suitable for installations that require insulated or coated conductors, or where a different material (for example, aluminium or tinned copper) is specified for corrosion resistance or weight reduction. It is also not appropriate where shorter or custom-shaped busbars are needed unless trimmed and refinished to meet electrical installation standards.

Key specifications

• Material: copper (electro-conductive)
• Length: 1185 mm
• Supply form: single piece
• Mounting: integrated mounting holes along the bar
• Application: internal busbar and power distribution use in enclosures

How to use

Install the bus bar inside the control cabinet or switchgear using the integrated mounting holes, aligning it with the designated mounting points and secure with suitable hardware rated for electrical enclosures. Ensure proper electrical connections by using compatible connectors, lugs, or clamps and tighten to the torque values recommended by the connector manufacturer. Verify clearances and creepage distances according to applicable electrical standards before energizing the system, and perform continuity and insulation checks after installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that a solid copper conductor of 1185 mm length fits your enclosure layout and mounting scheme
• Ensure the integrated mounting hole pattern and hole diameters match your fastening hardware
• Check required current-carrying capacity and whether plain copper meets corrosion and thermal requirements
• Verify compatibility with connectors, lugs, and protective insulation or insulating covers if needed

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow local electrical codes when handling and installing the bus bar. Consider adding insulation or busbar covers in exposed areas and perform torque-checked connections and routine inspections to maintain reliable electrical performance.
