Reply to "Bus wire"

According to the "Telecom Dictionary" of terms from "Higgins International" :

Bus - One or more conductors or optical fibers that serve as a common connection for a group of related devices.

And the NEC (National Electric Code) uses the term "bus" throughout their documentation.

There was (or is) a company named "Bussman" that manufactured fuses. But I've seen both "bus" and "buss" used in electrical discussions. It seems to me that either one may be used without causing any real confusion. Just sayin'!
