Abstract
A bus bar holder having at least one bus bar receiver formed in a support element, with a width that can be varied for receiving bus bars of different cross sections by means of an adapter element, which can be plugged or locked in a holding structure with a matched and complementary holding structure in a bottom area. There are a variety of adaptations for adapting the bus bar receiver in the depth direction, because a separate spacer is provided, which can be removably attached on the bottom area of the bus bar receiver and which has a free space in the area of the holding structure, through which the holding structure is accessible for inserting the adapter element.
