    Protect connections against corrosion. These bars are tin-plated copper and have stainless steel terminals. Also known as bus bars, they serve as connection points between wires with ring or spade terminals. The underside is sealed, so the bars can be safely mounted to conductive surfaces.
    Distribution Bar Covers—Distribution bar covers protect the top of the bar and prevent accidental contact with live circuits.
