Manufacturer of fuses, and probably a bunch of stuff I'm not aware of.
Also (and I don't know if this comes from the manufacturer, or some
alternate source), a "buss bar" is a power or ground bar in a circuit
breaker panel.

The name has leaked over to become an occasional alternate spelling of
"bus" -- it happens enough I'm not even sure I'd call it a mis-spelling.
