Eaton 283130 Busbar Connection Terminal 3-Pole 230 A Screw Terminal for 5-Pole Busbar

Connecting large conductors to busbar systems in distribution boards can be a challenge when space is tight and current demands are high. The Eaton 283130 busbar connection terminal solves this by providing a compact, 3-pole connection point rated for 230 A, designed to mount directly onto a 5-pole busbar. It accepts rigid or flexible conductors up to 70 mm², making it suitable for demanding electrical installations.

Who is it for

This terminal is intended for electricians and panel builders who need a reliable, high-current connection to an Eaton xPole busbar system. It is particularly useful in commercial and industrial distribution boards where space is limited but performance cannot be compromised.
