Low inductance busbar systems and methods

A bus bar configured to electrically connect one or more electrical components, comprising:

• an interior layer;
• a first intermediate layer and a second intermediate layer electrically connected in parallel and disposed on opposite sides of the interior layer;
• a first exterior layer electrically connected in parallel with the interior layer, wherein the first exterior layer and the interior layer are disposed on opposite sides of the first intermediate layer;
• and
• a second exterior layer electrically connected in parallel with the interior layer and the first exterior layer, wherein the second exterior layer and the interior layer are disposed on opposite sides of the second intermediate layer;
• wherein volume of the interior layer is different from volume of the first exterior layer and volume of the second exterior layer.

A method of manufacturing a bus bar used to electrically connect one or more electrical components, comprising:

• coupling a first insulating layer to a first side of an interior layer, wherein the interior layer comprises a first thickness;
• coupling a second insulating layer to a second side of the interior layer;
• coupling a first intermediate layer to the second insulating layer, wherein the first intermediate layer comprises the first thickness;
• coupling a second intermediate layer to the first insulating layer, wherein the second intermediate layer comprises the first thickness;
• coupling a third insulating layer to the first intermediate layer;
• coupling a fourth insulating layer to the second intermediate layer;
• coupling a first external layer to the third insulating layer, wherein the first external layer comprises a second thickness different from the first thickness;
• and
• coupling a second external layer to the fourth insulating layer, wherein the second external layer comprises the second thickness.
