Panduit UGB2/0-414-6 Universal Ground Bar, 6-Port, Tin-Plated Copper

Overview

The Panduit UGB2/0-414-6 is a tin-plated copper universal ground bar built for control panels and electrical enclosures where a reliable, code-compliant equipment grounding termination is non-negotiable. Part of Panduit's StructuredGround™ grounding and bonding line, this busbar accepts #14 through #4 AWG in six wire ports and handles a main equipment grounding conductor up to 2/0 AWG via compression or mechanical connector — covering the typical range from branch-circuit tails to feeder-grade conductors without swapping hardware. If you're specifying grounding and bonding components for an industrial control panel or security enclosure, the UGB2/0-414-6 (often searched as UGB2/0 414 6) terminates cleanly in either bonded or isolated configurations and ships individually (Package Qty: 1) with carton quantities of 10.

Key Features

• #14–#4 AWG, Six Wire Ports: Six ports covering fourteen-gauge control wiring down to four-gauge branch conductors — one bar handles the full range of typical panel grounding tails without mixing hardware types or adding supplemental lugs.
• Up to 2/0 AWG Main Grounding Conductor: The main lug accepts conductors through 2/0 AWG via compression or mechanical connector, which keeps the bar viable in feeder-fed panels where the equipment grounding conductor is substantially larger than the branch tails it terminates.
• Tin-Plated Copper Construction: The copper body provides the conductivity a grounding busbar demands; the tin plating resists oxidation at connection points over time — particularly relevant in environments with humidity cycling or chemical exposure where bare copper would develop resistance-increasing corrosion at terminations.
• UL 467 and CSA 22.2 No. 41 Certified: Both certifications are met, so the bar satisfies standard electrical panel inspections in the US and Canada without requiring engineering waivers or additional documentation. For UL-listed panels, this matters at the AHJ review stage.
• Multiple Mounting Options: Bonding stand-offs, isolation stand-offs, and direct panel mounting are all supported. The isolation stand-off path is the right call when the ground bar must be separated from the panel chassis for measurement or testing purposes; the bonding stand-off path bonds the bar directly to the enclosure. Both configurations come from the same part.
• Compact Form Factor — 4.92″ L × 0.62″ W × 0.48″ H: At under five inches long and roughly half an inch in both cross-sectional dimensions, the UGB2/0-414-6 fits inside cramped DIN-rail enclosures and shallow sub-panels where a standard multi-row ground bar simply won't clear the cover. Confirm your available panel depth against the 0.48″ height before specifying.
• Silver Finish, Tin-Plated Surface: The silver color simplifies panel documentation and inspection — grounding bars are visually distinct from phase and neutral buses, which reduces wiring errors during commissioning and makes future maintenance faster.
• Sold Individually, Carton of 10 Available: Single-unit packaging keeps procurement simple for single-panel retrofits; the 10-unit carton makes sense for multi-panel projects or stocking a service truck without over-ordering.

Integration & Compatibility

The UGB2/0-414-6 is designed for control panel and enclosure applications where a grounding busbar must interface with both small-gauge control wiring and a heavier main equipment grounding conductor. The bar's universal port design means it works alongside standard compression lugs and mechanical connectors already in most panel builders' inventories — no proprietary tooling required for the wire ports. For power distribution installations specifying grounding continuity across multiple enclosures, the isolation stand-off option supports selective bonding schemes without modifying the bar itself. When integrating into UL-listed panel assemblies, confirm that the listing engineer's bill of materials references UL 467 for grounding busbars — the UGB2/0-414-6 meets that requirement directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What wire range does the UGB2/0-414-6 accept at the wire ports?

A: The six wire ports accept #14 through #4 AWG conductors. The main equipment grounding conductor connection accommodates up to 2/0 AWG via compression or mechanical connector.

Q: What certifications does the UGB2/0-414-6 carry?

A: The UGB2/0-414-6 meets UL 467 and CSA 22.2 No. 41 standards, covering both US and Canadian electrical panel applications.

Q: Can the UGB2/0-414-6 be mounted in an isolated configuration?

A: Yes. The bar supports bonding stand-offs, isolation stand-offs, and direct panel mounting. Isolation stand-offs keep the bar electrically separated from the panel chassis — useful when testing or when your panel design requires a separately referenced grounding point.

Q: What are the physical dimensions of the UGB2/0-414-6?

A: Overall length is 4.92 inches (approximately 5 inches), width is 0.62 inches (15.7 mm), and height is 0.48 inches (12.2 mm). Verify available panel depth against the 0.48-inch height before specifying in shallow enclosures.

Q: What is the bar's material and finish?

A: The bar is copper with a tin plating and silver color finish. Tin plating resists oxidation at termination points, maintaining connection integrity over time in environments with humidity or chemical exposure.

Q: Is the UGB2/0-414-6 sold individually or in packs?

A: It is sold individually (Package Qty: 1). Carton quantity is 10 units for multi-panel or stocking orders.

The UGB2/0-414-6 addresses a specific gap that comes up repeatedly in control panel builds: you need one bar that handles both the small-gauge grounding tails from control circuits and a substantial main equipment grounding conductor, without stacking two separate busbars or adding supplemental compression lugs outside the bar. The 2/0 AWG main conductor capacity combined with six #14–#4 AWG ports covers that range cleanly in a single 4.92-inch component.

Technical Highlights:

• Wire Port Range (#14–#4 AWG, 6 ports): Covers the control-wiring-to-branch-conductor spread common in security and automation panel builds — no secondary lug block needed for #14 AWG control grounds alongside heavier #8 or #6 AWG branch grounds.
• 2/0 AWG Main Conductor Capacity: Feeder-fed panels pulling equipment grounding conductors sized to the feeder don't need an oversized supplemental lug — the main connection on the UGB2/0-414-6 handles up to 2/0 AWG directly via compression or mechanical connector.
• UL 467 / CSA 22.2 No. 41 Dual Certification: Both marks on a single part simplifies BOM management for panels destined for cross-border installations — one SKU, one datasheet, two code authorities satisfied.

Deployment Considerations:

• The 0.48-inch (12.2 mm) height is the spec to check first in shallow enclosures — it's compact but not zero-profile, and some sub-panel covers won't clear it on direct-mount without a stand-off.
• The bar ships without stand-offs — bonding and isolation stand-offs are separate Panduit accessories. If your design requires an isolated ground bus, spec those stand-offs on the same PO to avoid a hold-up at the panel assembly stage.

For multi-enclosure security or automation panel installations — particularly UL 508A industrial control panels where the AHJ will verify grounding component listings — the UGB2/0-414-6 is the right call: UL 467 listed, copper construction, and flexible enough in mounting options that one SKU works across bonded and isolated bus configurations in the same panel family.
