BUSBAR SYTSEM

A busbar system includes a plurality of bar modules arranged one behind the other and connected to each other via clamping brackets. Each bar module has a plurality of busbars. The bar module end including the recesses running in a longitudinal extension is inserted into the clamping bracket and the bar module end with the recesses running transversely to the longitudinal extension is suspended on the opposite side in the clamping bracket. Each of the busbars of the one bar module rests laterally against a busbar of the other bar module and the recesses, as viewed from the side, form a through-opening, through which a tensioning element supported on the clamping bracket runs, which presses together the sides of the busbars which rest against each other.
