Using Shorting Bars
Shorting Bars (part number IC200ACC303, quantity 2) can be a cost-effective solution for
providing additional bussed terminals for modules that include only one I/O board. The
shorting bar has a maximum current-carrying capacity of 2 Amps per point. See the
individual module descriptions to determine whether a shorting bar can be used for a
particular module.
The figures below show how a Shorting Bar can be used on a 2-row or 3-row carrier to
provide extra field wiring connections for an I/O module.
