Abstract
A bus bar system with an assembly unit having a base plate with side limbs and fixing items which are connected to the assembly unit. The assembly unit forms a receiving element for a bus bar holder and bus bars which are covered with cover elements and/or adapters for peripheral devices. The covers and/or adapters are mechanically connected to the bus bars by plug-in receiving elements and/or locking receiving elements and the adapters are also electrically connected to the bus bars. An assembly unit, which can be produced and mounted at low cost without impeding functional requirements, is provided and the assembly unit forms locking receiving elements together with retaining flanges, which protrude at a distance on the outer sides of the side limbs, and fixing flanges, wherein bar-shaped fixing items can be inserted into and/or locked inside the receiving elements. The plug-in and/or locking receiving elements of the covers and/or adapters receive the retaining flanges and the connected side limbs of the bar-shaped fixing items.
