SystemShield 12-Position Brass Grounding Bar — Insulated Base

12-Position Brass Grounding Bar on Insulated Base

Short Description

Compact 12-position brass grounding bar on insulated base for cabinet, enclosure, rack, panel, and equipment grounding/bonding applications. Current matching market listings for this hardware class consistently show a 12-position brass bar on an insulating base, with representative dimensions around 120 to 122 mm length, 12 to 15 mm bar width, and overall assembled height around 22 to 30 mm, depending on exact supplier variant.

Product Overview

The SystemShield 12-Position Brass Grounding Bar on Insulated Base is a compact grounding / terminal bar intended to provide multiple conductor landing points in one organized location. It is used where several grounding or bonding conductors need to terminate to a common brass bar mounted on a non-conductive base inside cabinets, enclosures, racks, panels, or similar electrical equipment spaces. The technical identity here is a 12-position brass grounding / terminal bar assembly, not a large telecom busbar or a utility-scale grounding busbar.

Current listings for this compact class show a brass conductor bar mounted to an insulating base, commonly with 12 screw termination positions. Representative seller data in this class shows overall size around 120 × 12 × 22 mm, while another current listing shows around 122 × 15 × 30 mm. A separate listing in the same compact insulated busbar class shows M4 screw size and confirms the insulated-base form factor. Those sources support the dimensional class and the compact grounded-terminal-bar identity used here.

This product should be treated as a compact multi-point grounding / terminal bar assembly used for controlled conductor landing and distribution in equipment, not as a building-scale grounding busbar with standoff brackets and long copper bar geometry. Larger grounding busbars from telecom/data-center vendors are a different class of product entirely.

Key Features

• 12-position compact grounding / terminal bar format
• Brass bar construction for conductive grounding / bonding termination service
• Mounted on an insulating base rather than direct bare-bar mounting
• Compact form suitable for cabinet, enclosure, and equipment mounting
• Representative class dimensions around 120 to 122 mm length
• Representative compact-bar width around 12 to 15 mm
• Commonly uses screw-secured termination positions
• Distinct from larger copper telecom/data-center grounding busbars with bracketed standoff mounting

Technical Specifications

The values above reflect the current compact 12-position brass-on-insulated-base hardware class and should be treated as class-based dimensional guidance unless your exact sourced part is permanently locked to one vendor version.

What’s Included

• (1) 12-position brass grounding bar on insulated base
• Integral insulated base
• Screw-secured conductor landing positions as part of the assembled bar class

Typical Applications

• Cabinet grounding conductor landing
• Enclosure grounding / bonding termination
• Rack or rail grounding point organization
• Equipment grounding conductor collection point
• Multi-conductor bonding distribution inside a compact enclosure
• Finished-kit integration into larger SystemShield grounding assemblies

Compatibility

Compatible with:

• #12 AWG Green THHN/THWN-2 Stranded Copper — 9 ft — Pre-Stripped, Pre-Crimped One End as a primary landing-bar destination in the Standard kit context
• #6 AWG Green THHN/THWN-2 Stranded Copper — 20 ft — Pre-Stripped, Pre-Crimped One End where the installed conductor and landing hardware match the actual bar / termination format
• #6 AWG Green THHN/THWN-2 Stranded Copper — 3 ft — Pre-Stripped, Pre-Crimped One End in the HTAP finished-kit context
• SystemShield Standard Mounting Hardware Kit, where the mounting hardware supports grounding-bar installation
• SystemShield Grounding Kit (Standard) and SystemShield HTAP Kit — 3FT, where this bar functions as the primary common landing point

Not intended as:

• A large telecom/data-center copper grounding busbar with stand-off brackets
• A direct substitute for every panelboard-specific OEM grounding-bar kit
• A universal high-amperage power distribution block

Installation Notes

Install only where the mounting surface, spacing, hardware selection, and conductor landing method match the actual compact grounding-bar variant supplied. Because this product class is a compact insulated brass bar with screw termination positions, the installer should verify actual screw size, mounting-hole geometry, and conductor fit before final installation. Current listings in this class show dimensional variation between sellers even though the overall format remains the same.

This product should not be confused with larger bracketed copper telecom grounding busbars. Those larger products are a different class and are mounted with standoff hardware and panel / rack brackets rather than the compact insulated-base format used here.

Installer should verify:

• mounting-hole alignment
• conductor landing fit
• screw size and tool fit
• grounding-bar location inside the enclosure
• application requirements before installation

Compliance & Regulatory Information

This product is described here as a compact 12-position brass grounding / terminal bar on insulated base based on current commercial listings for that hardware class. The reviewed sources support the material class, position count, and insulated-base form factor, but they do not establish a single unified certification claim that should be carried into this listing as a broader compliance statement for every supplier version.

It should be used only as part of a properly designed grounding or bonding system and within the limits of the exact supplied part.

Packaging & Handling

• Protect against brass bar deformation
• Protect against screw damage
• Protect against base cracking
• Protect against contamination of conductor landing surfaces
• Protect against corrosion from improper storage conditions

Store in a clean, dry environment before installation. Do not use damaged bars with bent brass sections, cracked bases, or compromised screw positions.

Notes / Limitations

This product is a compact grounding / terminal bar assembly, not a large telecom busbar or a complete finished kit.

• Final suitability depends on correct mounting format
• Correct conductor landing fit is required
• Correct hardware selection is required
• Proper installation practices are required
• Actual application requirements control final suitability
