The link takes you to a 150-amp rated Euroterminal. 12 terminals = 6-pairs

Threads are lightly distorted meaning screws will not back off easily. Since a 75-amp Euroterminal barrier strip accepts six gauge wire, I can only assume this one can accept four gauge wire. In goes 4 gauge out comes several 10 or 8 gauge wires. Easily cut off how many terminals you need with a hacksaw.

They have a variety of smaller sizes this one is the largest.

150 amperes @ 600vac EACH terminal. I've loaded the 65-amp version to 65 amperes overnight. Temp went from around 80 to 105F. I love Euroterminals. But a reasonable amount of care is needed when assembling. Tight as heck on the screws.

So, is this 150 amps per connection or per 12 connections (actually per 6, as amps would be for BOTH positive and negative). BIG difference. Assume the latter.

Still, a good alternative for low-amp connections.

You are looking for a buss bar. This is a terminal block. Quicksilver has buss bars 16" X 4" X 1" Silicon bronze 3/8" SAE studs. Silver soldered. The feeder is a 1/2" SAE stud. Otter be good for a thousand amps or so. These critters are meant for one four gauge feeder and 2 or three large branch wires on the other side. Totally different operation.

Have you seen/used this item your self???

I have used what looks the same in the electrical field and there is no common buss bar, so you have to jump one side with small jumpers which means TWO wires per screw hole.
The 125amp rated strips I used have a .250" hole for the wires.
Not so easy to jump with 2 heavy wires or brass u-connectors.

I like the BB2-8 type of these for distribution from heavy wire to lighter gauge.
