Hey Kevin
It's made as a boat part, but would work...

Subject: [TN] bus-bar

Technos,

I apologize in advance if this is an overly simplistic request, but I am
not primarily an electrical engineer.  I've been searching for a bus-bar
/ distribution-bar / terminal block (whatever you want to call it) for a
specific test box.   Inside the test box, what I need to do is simply
split 1 wire input  into 6 output.  The current box simply uses a wire
nut.  I'd like to improve this with a bus-bar / dist-bar /
terminal-block.    The input wire is 10ga, the 6 out are 20ga, total
current up to 40A DC..     I am ideally looking for something akin to
the ground bar in  your household electrical panel (ref Square-D p/n
PK23GTA, Grainger P/N 5B716), but a smaller version of it.    I can't
seem to locate such an item.  Does it exist?   I can find many terminal
block variants, but would require use of multiple jumpers to create the
"bus".    I've also found McMaster-Carr P/N 7626K11, but it is a bit too
tall profile (1.52").

I've also considered that I could use grounding ribbon and simply solder
connections, but for serviceability I would really prefer screw
terminals.

Thanks in advance.
