6P

The Busbar 150A 6P is a Victron busbar for distributing DC current, supplied with a clear polycarbonate cover. It is rated for 150 A at up to 70 V DC, and the bar is tin plated copper measuring 1.4mm x 18mm. The terminals are stainless steel, 6.35 mm in diameter. The base carries a UL 94 V-0 fire rating. It is the 6P version of the maker's 150 A busbar.

Our take

The 150 A rating on a 1.4mm x 18mm tin plated copper bar is the ceiling for the total current through this 6P busbar, however many circuits share it. The 70 V DC limit and 6.35 mm terminals fix the system voltage and lug size.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.

Check before you buy:

  • On a boat subpart I covers, a continuously energized ungrounded terminal needs a boot, nipple, cap, cover or shield.
  • Ignition protection on a charger or switch is the maker's statement, so read what it says and which standard it names.
