After years of using odd ball bus bars for various connections such as ground and power, we came up with these as a solution. Small sized for handy applications!
While not intended to be ground systems for towers and such, these handy bus bars are excellent for tying your coax shields, rig and tuner, mics and processors, etc ground wires together. Small and thin profile makes these easy to hide and put out of sight behind the gear if needed. These make the task a bit easier.
Want to use these for power applications? They work fine for that as well, just remember you need to either make sure you don't short it out or tape it up well so it won't short if using it for the hot lead in your power wiring. Or enclose it and you wires leads in a nice heat shrink. And don't bolt it down with the mounting screws to something that is at ground potential.
Use these for temporary rigging of grounds for such things as POTA, emergency ops and other portable activities.
