Mitsubishi Q series...24VDC power distribution for din rail...

In our PLC, we've got a 24VDC (5 amp) power supply - it's a PULS cp5, which connects to a DIN rail. I need it to supply power to 8 x Druck pressure sensors.
I don't want to connect all 8 of the device wires into the power supply (in fact, it would be almost impossible to stuff all those wires into the power supply). Can anyone recommend a way to neatly distribute this power, so that each device has its own +24VDC and its own 0VDC terminal block? i.e. some sort of "busbars"...one for the +24VDC and another for the 0VDC. I think I have seen some sort of 'row of din connectors' which has a metal strip running from the first to the last terminal block, which might be a solution.
Sorry for the basic question, but I've not done this sort of thing before. Thanks

pick your poison for the most part.

AB - Siemens_- DINnector - etc etc

lots of brands to choose from. all sell the same basic stuff. heres some from automation direct that you could use.

These are basic, so use the terminology 'Terminal Block' 'Din Rail Terminals' and look for the matching busbar/jumpers that work with the type you pick.

I think something like that will do the trick.
Thanks!
