Blue Sea Systems PowerBar 1000 8 x 3/8"-16 Busbar with Cover (1990 / 1990-BSS)
The Blue Sea Systems 1990 (1990-BSS) is a heavy-duty, high-amperage PowerBar 1000 Busbar designed to serve as a central high-current DC distribution or collection point in 12V, 24V, or 48V DC marine, commercial vehicle, and energy storage systems. Rated for continuous electrical currents up to 1,000 A DC, it provides eight 3/8"-16 stainless steel terminal studs capable of receiving heavy-gauge battery cables, inverter connections, and high-output alternator feeds.
Fabricated from pure tin-plated C11000 copper, the busbar delivers low electrical resistance and high corrosion protection in marine engine rooms and battery bays. It includes a snap-on insulating cover molded from polycarbonate that protects against accidental electrical short circuits, satisfies ABYC safety requirements, and features breakout tabs for dual-direction cable entry.
- 1,000 Amp busbar for large complex wiring systems
- Tin plated pure electrical copper for maximum conductivity
- Stepped bus design offers two elevations for conductors which doubles
- the density of the wire loom compared to traditional bus bars
- Busbar and fuse block elevations match common fuse blocks allowing for multiple fuse block attachment, eliminating the need for connecting cables
- One-piece serrated flange nuts ensure correct and secure connections
- Stainless steel 8-32 screws with captive lock washers for securing smaller gauge wires
- Busbar may be cut to a shorter length to accommodate constricted spaces
- Bi-directional busbar end caps allow the ganging of additional busbars
- Snap on insulating cover meets ABYC and USCG requirements and includes label recess
