Blue Sea Systems 2701 DualBus Plus Common BusBar, 130A AC / 150A DC, 5-Terminal 8-32 Screw
Blue Sea Systems 2701 DualBus Plus Common BusBar, 130A AC / 150A DC, 5-Terminal 8-32 Screw
The Blue Sea Systems 2701 is a DualBus Plus common busbar that combines negative and positive buses on one block, giving boat owners a compact, organized way to distribute DC power to multiple circuits from a single mounting point. It is built for DC power distribution in boats, RVs, solar systems, and other mobile or off-grid electrical systems where several circuits need to share a common positive or negative connection point.
Each busbar has 5 screw terminals sized for 8-32 screws, giving you five individual connection points on a single copper bus bar. A secure, clear polycarbonate cover snaps on easily over the terminals to meet ABYC insulation requirements, protecting connections from accidental contact and shorts while still allowing the terminals to be seen for inspection. Cover release buttons make it simple to remove the cover for wiring changes or maintenance without tools. One-piece stainless steel flange nuts are used at each terminal to ensure safe, secure, and corrosion-resistant connections over time.
The Blue Sea 2701 is rated for a continuous load of 130A AC / 150A DC, with a maximum operating voltage of 300V AC / 48V DC, making it suitable for higher-current DC distribution runs common in marine and off-grid battery systems.
