1. A bus component for forming a transmission path that transmits a signal, the bus component comprising:
a base member; and
an energization path formed to extend from one edge to the other edge of a set of opposing edges of the base member,
wherein
the bus component is configured to be able to be coupled to another bus component such that edges of base members of the bus component and the another bus component are in contact with each other,
the energization path in the bus component and the energization path in the another bus component are configured to form a predetermined transmission path in a state where the bus component is coupled to the another bus component,
the energization path is formed of a metal member so as to be partially exposed on the surface of the base member, and
the energization path is configured to include at least a first energization path and a second energization path configured such that a converter can be attached in contact with both an exposed surface of the first energization path and an exposed surface of the second energization path.
