Bus bars ?

[1 Cup]

I need bus bars for M10 connectors lugs for invertor 70mm wire is copper less than aluminium in resistance ?

What is in your van and would you now upgrade ?

When I worked for British Insulated Callender Cables all the bus bars I had dealings with were copper.

You can buy copper flat bar and make your own that’s what I did

As Neil suggested I'd make my own busbars from some flat strip, 20X4mm will have a CSA of 80mm so will be greater than your cables. Aluminium is about 1/2 as good as copper so if you make your ali busbar twice as thick (8mm) as a copper one then the 2 will perform similarly. Ali may work out cheaper for you.
FWIW Gold is actually worse than copper at conducting electricity, Silver however is slightly better than copper.
The reason why you see gold on connectors is because it doesn't tarnish, not because it's a better conductor.
