Anderson Intros SB and Power Pole Connectors


New Products May 15, 2003 by Jeff Shepard

Anderson Power Products (Sterling, MA) introduced the latest addition to its SB family and Power Pole family of connectors, the 75A bus bar contact, which is used with the APP PowerPole®75 and SB®50 connector families. The new 75A bus bar contact attaches directly to a copper bus, while offering a quick disconnect design that minimizes the expense of system assembly, replacement or repair.

The bus bar contact further reduces assembly costs by facilitating the use of plug-in, sub-systems and sub-system testing for field site service and repair. The contact’s efficient transmission of power makes it suitable for use in electronic cabinets. To ensure high conductivity and minimal electrical loss, The bus bar contact is manufactured from solid copper and is silver plated. The contact is threaded to provide simple attachment to a bus without the need for special tooling. The bus bar’s knurled shoulder ensures a snug fit, and the "D" shape prevents contact rotation.
