Bus bar Rittal SV 9686.580 Copper 2 pcs, length 900 mm, type E-Cu 80×10 mm

Rittal SV 9686.580 is a set of two copper bus bars manufactured from electrolytic copper (E‑Cu) with a cross section of 80×10 mm and a length of 900 mm. Designed for electrical distribution and protective conductor (PE/PEN) applications in switchgear and control cabinets, these bus bars conform to DIN EN 13601 and include integral punchings for convenient mounting and connection. The solid copper profile provides low-resistance conductive paths suitable for industrial and commercial electrical panels.

Advantages

The Rittal SV 9686.580 bus bars offer high electrical conductivity and stable mechanical strength due to their E‑Cu composition and large cross section. Their 900 mm length and integral punchings simplify installation and allow flexible positioning inside enclosures. Conformance to the DIN EN standard ensures consistent material quality and safety properties for earthing and distribution use.

Suitable for

• Earthing (PE) and combined PE/PEN bus systems in switchgear and distribution cabinets
• Industrial control panels and power distribution enclosures
• Commercial electrical installations requiring robust conductive bus bars
• Retrofit or new-build cabinet assemblies where 900 mm bus length fits layout

When it may not be suitable

This product may not be suitable for applications requiring insulating or composite busbars, or where a non-ferrous alloy other than electrolytic copper is specified. It is not intended for use as a live-phase insulated busbar unless additional insulation or segregation measures are applied. Projects with length or mounting-hole patterns differing from the included dimensions may require custom cutting or drilling.

Key specifications

• Material: Electrolytic copper (E‑Cu)
• Cross section: 80 × 10 mm
• Length: 900 mm (two pieces per set)
• Standard: Conforms to DIN EN 13601
• Features: Integral punchings for mounting and connections

How to use

Position the copper bus bars inside the switchgear or cabinet according to the electrical layout, ensuring proper clearance and segregation from live parts as required by applicable standards. Use the integral punchings to fix the bars securely with appropriate hardware and torque values for clamp or bolt connections. Connect protective conductors (PE/PEN) using suitably sized connectors or lugs and verify continuity and tightness. If trimming or machining is necessary, follow safe practices for cutting and deburring copper to maintain conductive integrity.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that the 80×10 mm cross section and 900 mm length fit the available space and current-carrying requirements
• Verify compatibility of the integral punching pattern with your cabinet mounting or connector types
• Check whether additional insulation, segregation, or supports are needed for live-phase applications
• Ensure installation personnel follow local electrical codes and torque specifications for busbar connections

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, install the Rittal SV 9686.580 bus bars in dry, ventilated enclosures, secure connections with correctly sized lugs and torque settings, and perform continuity and resistance checks after installation. Where required, apply suitable insulation barriers or phase segregation to meet safety and assembly regulations.
