Grounding busbar/Equipotential bars
I searched one of the article nos. from your Swe reference and got these two references -- SEB-06 Art.nr. 545012 and got these two references, from the same Irish company it seems. They might lead you further along... Michael's answer seems in the ballpark.
Discussion
Swedish seems to treat 'jordning' as synonymous to both earthing and grounding, but which are slightly different technically. So looking up earthing busbar and comparing it to the details in the context should help.
I got an email from Proz with the link to the picture and so found the answer without going onto the site, which I then did to enter it. I should have stopped to look at not just other entries but your reference. Shall I take off my answer so that you can put it up?
