This power distribution bus is machined from a single piece of solid brass, providing a reliable way to distribute power across multiple wires in a project. Seven screw-terminal holes accept wires of 20 AWG or larger (up to 6 mm diameter), making it well suited for robotics, LED pixel grids, and other builds with multiple power feeds.
A plastic cover provides insulation from accidental contact, and mounting flanges allow the bus to be secured inside an enclosure or onto a chassis.
Key Features
- Solid Brass Construction – Machined from a single piece for excellent conductivity
- 7 Screw Terminals – Each with a 6 mm diameter bore for thick wires
- Plastic Insulating Cover – Protects against accidental shorts and contact
- Mounting Flanges – Secure the bus inside enclosures or onto frames
Specifications
- Material – Solid brass
- Terminals – 7 screw-down connections
- Hole Diameter – 6 mm
- Minimum Wire Size – 20 AWG (thinner wires may not grip securely)
Ideal For
- LED pixel matrix and strip power distribution
- Robot power wiring
- Projects requiring a central power bus for multiple branches
Package Contents
- 1× Power distribution bus (7-terminal, solid brass with plastic cover)
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- AWG
- American Wire Gauge is a numbering system for wire thickness, where a lower number means a thicker wire. The AWG rating matters because thicker wire can usually carry more current with less voltage drop and heating.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
