Phoenix Contact Busbar Connectors

Phoenix Contact Busbar Connectors enable pluggable, reliable, and safe connectivity for Energy Storage Systems (ESS). These storage systems contain interconnected battery modules, often using lithium-ion cells, that contain and maintain electrical energy. Utilities and other users in both residential and commercial sectors scale these modular systems to meet the energy demands of the grids they service. The connectors, designed for these standardized DC storage systems, handle up to 1500V DC and up to 350A. Busbar Connectors simplify the power management connectivity required of the ESS and can be used in tandem or separately as dictated by application needs and preferences.
