Apart from breaking up cast iron baths, cable sizing and power factor correction, busbar sizing is one of CR4's most popular topics. Take a look at these for example. Someone there must know, surely?

Why is this question in the Automotive section? Because it is BUSbar?

I think it would look quite nice a bank of highly polished copper bars running the length of a bus.
