M8 busbar connections

The Lynx Power In with M8 connections is a modular DC busbar from Victron that brings battery feeds into the Lynx DC distribution system. The busbar is tinned copper, 8 mm by 30 mm, and rated for 1,000 A continuous. It works across a DC voltage range of 9 to 60 V and has M8 busbar connections. The enclosure is IP22 and weighs 2.1 kg.

Our take

The 8 mm by 30 mm tinned copper busbar is rated 1,000 A continuous, which makes this Power In the point where battery feeds enter a Lynx distribution system. Its stated working range is 9 to 60 V, so that is the ceiling for the bank.

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.
