Purpose of the equipotential bonding bar
The Equipotential bonding bars are frequently used in medium and low voltage applications. They are used for the interconnection of different earthing circuits or electrical grounds within an electrical installation. The network thus created is then brought to a common potential.
Components nomenclature
The equipotential bonding bars are usually proposed with the following equipment :
- A bare or tinned and perforated bar for connections to ground circuits
- Low voltage insulators
- A connection means to the support on which the equipotential bonding bar will be mounted
- A disconnecting link for separating the grounding circuit during periodic checks of the grounding resistance
Different models available
The different models shown below are manufactured by MALTEP and are representative of the most common products.

The disadvantages of traditional equipotential bonding bars
Although functional, the many designs currently available have some disadvantages:
- Need to dismantle the rail in order to correctly adjust the equipotential bar on its support
- Overall dimensions of the mounting rail and bar assembly
The MALTEP solution
In an effort to continously bring innovative solutions and ease the installation of these products, MALTEP has developed a new generation of equipotential bars integrating both the conductor insulation and its fastening.
With the new MALTEP insulators, Patent N°EP 20305105.7, the new generation of equipotential bars offer you:
- DIRECT MOUNTING without dismantling the copper bar
- BETTER STABILITY thanks to built-in fastening insulators with a total of 4 points of fixation
- BETTER RESISTANCE to tearing
- CLUTTER REDUCTION with a smaller product height
- Significant WEIGHT reduction
- POSITIONING facilitated by oblong holes
