Busbar insulated with ELASTOSIL® R 531/60 (orange). The new silicone rubber ceramifies in the event of a fire. As a result, the rails remain insulated even in the event of an accident or vehicle fire. This provides additional protection to passengers of electric vehicles and rescue workers. (Photo: WACKER)
