There is only a 48V rating for these. want a 110AC busbar with these sizes of studs, it will need to be very large and heavy duty, or it will not be common outside of large switchgear
According to the description there is a 48v max power connection, so I do not know what to expect if I went five times that amount.
but the Amazon system doesn't seem to be able to maintain the product specifications. The current flowing through these is 250 amps per
It can be better served by ANL fuseholders, which are available in a variety of sizes. I wish you the best of luck, *br> *br> - I'm Justin at Bay Marine Supply / Mobile Power Pros

The product looked very good and well made upon initial product inspection, and I will have to echo the comments made by previous buyers. Once I'd mounted the product, I connected the battery cables, which proved to be simple and straightforward. My Can Am X3 SXS was already equipped with an unnecessary component, however, and it had a wire from the Bus Bar that I decided to remove. the course of trying to remove the nut, it suddenly seized up about halfway up the bolt for no Once removed, I attempted to remove the positive cable that connected to the BusBar, but a nut seized up in the process. It is true that the threads were all clean before removal, which meant that neither cross threads nor damage were present in the threads during installation or use. That's a real disappointment.
A first inspection of the product showed that it was very well put together and of high quality. When I mounted the product and began connecting the battery cables and the accessories cables, I noticed that the cable had been attached to the wrong side of the busbar. As I tried to remove the nut, it seized up when it got about half way off of the bolt. After that, I removed the other cable that was attached to the BusBar, and there was the same problem with the nut slipping out. In neither direction could the nuts be turned. Unfortunately, it was not possible to remove the nuts without breaking the studs.
An enclosed trailer of 16 feet length is what I have. Interior lighting, a camera, a 12v battery electrical jack to operate the trailer even if it's not connected to a vehicle, and interior lighting and backup lighting on the trailer were the features I wanted. For the Marine Bus, it was necessary to use the interior to interface the battery, the positive and negative 8 gauge connections to the exterior junction box, and to terminate the interior fuse. The fuse box contains all components, and all above components have an As a result, the interior battery within the trailer can charge when connected to the vehicle's electrical system, while the larger power system in the truck charges the trailer. I wanted an interface to control my power hub, and this fulfills my needs.
I welded a few studs onto it so it could bolt on straight to the battery box. As well as making things look so much better, the cover makes everything so much safer.
Due to the fact that it is a bus bar, I am surprised that the sides aren't linked, but I fixed that by removing the membrane divider along the center of the bar and leaping the four terminals in the middle with two solid copper strips. The system enables me to group all my "House Batteries" into one.
There is a lot of weight on this. You should find a cover that is not likely to In addition, there are smaller screw terminals on each side of the larger bolts. It is intended to be used on one side as a pos and on the other as a neg.
Installed very easily and I like the fact that the DC negative and positive connectors have 4 ports each. Without any heat buildup, it can easily handle loads of 150 amps. The product is of high quality.
This is the battery compartment of the RV (1991 Wilderness Cimarron 26', 250 Watts tilted on the roof, 230 AmpHR 6v batteries, MorningStar Tristar PWM, Trimetric). The neg is 5/16 and the pos is 3/8.
