Bus bar Rittal SV 9686.522 copper 2 pcs 1100 mm

Rittal SV 9686.522 is a set of two solid copper bus bars, each 1100 mm long, designed for electrical distribution and protective conductor (PE/PEN) connections in switchgear and enclosure systems such as the VX series. The bars conform to relevant industry standards and include integral punchings for easy mounting and connection. Supplied as two pieces per pack, these copper conductors provide stable electrical continuity and low resistance for grounding and equipotential bonding tasks.

Advantages

The solid copper construction ensures high conductivity and corrosion resistance for long-term reliable grounding performance. Integral punchings are preformed to simplify installation and reduce on-site processing time. The 1100 mm length and two-piece supply offer flexibility for a range of enclosure sizes and connection requirements. Compatibility with common enclosure systems facilitates organized internal wiring and consistent equipotential bonding.

Suitable for

• Protective earth (PE) and PEN conductor connections in switchgear and distribution enclosures
• Equipotential bonding and grounding bars within VX and similar enclosure systems
• Replacement or retrofit of existing bus bars where solid copper conductors are required

When it may not be suitable

This product is intended specifically as a solid copper bus bar for PE/PEN applications; it is not a multiphase power bus bar with integrated insulation or rated for live conductor segregation. For installations requiring insulated, color-coded bus profiles or bars with integrated phase separation, consider alternative products designed for those purposes. Also verify mechanical space and mounting compatibility in non-standard enclosures before installation.

Key specifications

• Material: solid copper
• Quantity: 2 pieces per pack
• Length: 1100 mm each
• Application: PE/PEN grounding and equipotential bonding
• Features: integral punchings for mounting and connection
• Standards: manufactured to applicable industry standards for bus bars (to DIN/EN where relevant)

How to use

Measure and plan the placement inside the enclosure to ensure proper clearance and alignment with incoming protective conductors. Use the integral punchings to secure the bus bars to mounting points or insulating supports, and make electrical connections with appropriately sized lugs or terminals tightened to manufacturer torque recommendations. Ensure all terminations are checked for good contact and that the entire grounding arrangement is verified for continuity and compliance with applicable regulations before energizing the installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that a 1100 mm length and two-piece configuration meet the enclosure layout and connection requirements
• Verify compatibility with the specific enclosure series and available mounting points
• Ensure copper bus bars meet local grounding and electrical code requirements for PE/PEN installations
• Consider the need for additional insulating supports, end caps, or terminal connectors for safe installation

Usage recommendations

Install and terminate the bus bars only when the power is isolated. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow local electrical codes. For best results, pair the bus bars with matching copper lugs and torque to recommended values; perform continuity and insulation tests after installation to confirm correct grounding.
