Heavy-Duty 500A Power Distribution for 12V–48V Systems
Create a cleaner, safer and more organised high-current electrical installation with this 500A 6-Post Power Distribution Busbar Pair.
Supplied with separate red positive and black negative busbars, this set provides a central connection point for distributing battery power and consolidating negative return cables. It is ideal for dual-battery systems, lithium battery installations, inverters, DC chargers, solar equipment and other high-current accessories.
Each busbar is fitted with two M10 (3/8-inch) & four M8(5/16-inch) terminal studs, providing secure mounting points for heavy-duty cable lugs. The enclosed modular housing helps protect the connections while keeping the finished installation neat and professional.

Perfect for High-Current Installations
Instead of stacking multiple cable lugs directly onto a battery terminal, the busbars provide dedicated central connection points for your electrical system. This helps simplify maintenance, improve cable organisation and create a more professional installation.
Common applications include:
- 4WD and touring electrical systems
- Dual-battery and lithium battery systems
- Caravans, camper trailers and motorhomes
- Marine and boat electrical installations
- Inverters and high-current DC equipment
- DC-to-DC battery chargers
- Solar and off-grid power systems
- Trucks, machinery and commercial vehicles
