Electrical Bus

• Buses are used for connecting components of a computer: a common example is the PCI bus in PCs. See computer bus.
• Buses are used for communicating between computers (often microprocessors). See computer bus.
• Buses are used for distribution of electrical power to components of a system. The (usually) thick connectors used are called busbars. In an electrical laboratory, for example, a bare bus-bar will sometimes line the wall, to be used by the engineers and technicians for its high electrical current carrying capacity, which allows a convenient approximation to zero voltage, or ground in the US, and earth in the UK.
