Abstract
A busbar (10) for an electric battery (20) for electrically connecting a plurality of individual cells (21) of the battery (20) comprises at least two conductor layers (Lu, Lo) stacked one on top of the other. The conductor layers (Lu, Lo) are electrically insulated from each other except at specific contact points (P1. P2). A bottom conductor layer (Lu) comprises, at a first end, a main terminal (T) for connecting a power supply. A top conductor layer (Lo) is electrically connected to the bottom conductor layer (Lu) via at least a first contact point (P1) and a second contact point (P2). The electrical resistance along a first current path between the main terminal (T) and the first contact point (P1) is the same as the electrical resistance along a second current path between the main terminal (T) and the second contact point (P2).
