Zusammenfassung:	A terminal assembly for a heater system includes a plurality of resistive heating elements arranged in multiple power phases includes a plurality of power busbars, a neutral busbar, a phase barrier disposed between each of the plurality of power busbars, and a plurality of interchangeable couplers. Each power busbar corresponds to a power phase of the multiple power phases and is configured to connect a power lead from one of the multiple power phases and a first end of a plurality of resistive heating elements. The resistive heating elements are in electrical communication with the power lead. The neutral busbar is offset longitudinally from the power busbars and configured to receive a second end of the resistive heating elements. The interchangeable couplers are configured to connect at least a subset of the resistive heating elements to at least one power busbar or at least one neutral busbar.
