xBusbar 250A 2-Pole with 6 Screws and Cover — VBB125020620
The Victron Busbar 250A 2-Pole is a compact, high-current distribution busbar designed for use in 12V, 24V and 48V DC systems. It provides a clean, organised method of connecting multiple cables to a common positive or negative rail, and is suited to battery banks, inverter installations and off-grid distribution boards. The included protective cover reduces the risk of accidental short circuits in live installations.
Key Features
- Rated at 250A continuous current, suitable for high-load DC distribution applications.
- 2-pole configuration with 6 screw terminals for connecting multiple cables to a single rail.
- Protective cover included, reducing the risk of accidental contact or short circuit in enclosed installations.
- Compact and lightweight at 0.25 kg, making it practical for panel mounting in tight enclosures.
- Compatible with Victron system components including inverters, battery monitors and charge controllers.
- Screw-terminal design provides a secure, low-resistance connection for each cable run.
Product Overview
A busbar simplifies DC wiring by consolidating multiple cable connections onto a single conductive rail rather than daisy-chaining terminals or relying on oversized connectors. In a typical off-grid or marine installation, the positive and negative busbars act as the central distribution point between the battery bank and all loads or charge sources. This 250A rating means it can handle the combined current draw of a substantial inverter installation or multiple parallel loads without thermal stress at the connection points.
The 2-pole format provides two separate rails (positive and negative) in a single unit, keeping wiring tidy and reducing the number of separate components needed. Six screw terminals per pole give enough connection points for most small to medium system layouts. The cover is an important practical detail: in any live DC installation, an exposed busbar at 250A represents a significant short-circuit risk, and the cover mitigates this during and after installation.

Installation Notes
This busbar should be installed by a qualified electrician or experienced installer familiar with high-current DC systems. Ensure all cables are correctly rated for the current they will carry before connecting to the busbar. Torque all screw terminals to the manufacturer's specification to avoid loose connections and heat build-up. The protective cover must be fitted after wiring is complete. For solar PV and battery storage installations in the UK, Voltacon recommends using MCS-accredited installers where applicable.
