General
The busbar trunking system shall be of low impedance and air insulated typed technology. It shall be totally enclosed
hot galvanised steel sheet painted with aluminium conductors; suitable for a 3 phase 4 wire 400 volts system with full
neutral, similar to the Schneider Electric Canalis range.
The system shall be complete with all necessary fittings, tap-off unit brackets, etc. and tap-off point on one side of the
busbar trunking system. All busbar trunking fittings (elbow, tees, end Cable Tap Box, etc.) shall be IP55 in accordance
to IEC 60 529 and from the same manufacturer as the busbar trunking system.
The busbar trunking system shall be capable of being mounted in any position without derating. The complete
installation shall be coordinated throughout and where possible, shall consist of standard 3m and 2m sections.
Horizontal runs of busbar trunking system shall be supported by hangers at every 2 meters.
Busbar trunking system shall be terminated by ‘end closure’.
2.
Conformity To Standard
It shall be constructed in accordance with the applicable requirements of the latest IEC 60 439 Part 1 and Part 2.
Resistance to flame propagation conforming IEC 60332 Part 3.
Resistance of the materials to abnormal heat conforming IEC 60695 Part 2.
3.
Environment
The busbar trunking system shall be suitable for continuous operation without derating at an average ambient
temperature of 35o C for 24h (40°C maximum). All the system must be in compliance with ROHS directive.
4.
Conductors
Conductors shall be of hard drawn 99% purity Aluminium EAlMgSi according EN 573-3 and ENAW-6101 standards.
Live conductors shall be air insulated and supported on Noryl insulated rail.
Conductors shall be fitted with bimetal silver-plated copper/aluminium laminate riders, electrically welded to junctions
and tap off positions.
Full size neutral of the same cross-sectional area as the phase conductor shall be provided for all ratings of the busbar
trunking system.
The busbar trunking system shall have the following characteristics:
Rated Insulation Voltage (A/C)
Rated Operating Voltage (A/C)
Frequency

Protective Conductor
Enclosure of the busbar shall be used as earth. Equivalent cross section of enclosure shall be at least 100% of the
phase.

Short Circuit Capacity
The whole busbar trunking system shall be capable of withstanding the short circuit capacity of the electrical
installation without damaging the electrical, mechanical and thermal stress under fault condition at a service voltage of
400V 50Hz.
7.
Temperature Rise
The maximum hot-spot temperature rise at any point of the busbar enclosure at continuous rated load shall not exceed
30o C above the maximum ambient temperature of 35o C in any position, as according IEC 60439 standard.
8.
Joints
All busbar joints shall be of silver plated copper.
Electrical jointing between two straight elements shall be ensured by spring-loaded contacts designed to absorb
differential expansion between the conductors and the casing.
Mechanical jointing between two straight elements shall be ensured by four captive screws which also guarantee
continuity of protective conductor.
The joint shall automatically and simultaneously connect all the live conductors.
The joint will be IP55 by construction without supplementary accessories
9.
Enclosure
The metal enclosure of the busbar trunking system shall be of hot galvanised crimped steel to provide high protection
and mechanical resistance for the phase conductors along the entire length.
In order to limit magnetic field around the busbar system, aluminium enclosures are not acceptable.
10.
Tap-Off Outlets
Tap-off outlets on one side of the trunking shall be at no more than 0.5m interval.
Tap off outlets shall be equipped with automatic shutters to prevent any accidental contact with live parts.
11.
Tap-off unit
Tap-off units shall be from the same manufacturer as the busbar trunking system and shall be provided with off-load
isolator suitable for fuses or modular circuit breakers according to ratings as indicated in the drawings.
All circuit breakers used shall be able to operate normally when mounted upside down or at any angles. The tap-off
units shall also have the provision to mount the earth fault relay together with the breaker. Tap-off units shall be IP55
as a standard.
Tap off unit jaws shall be of silver plated copper contacts suitable for all ratings of busbar and shall be suitably
earthed.
The earthing contact of the tap-off unit shall always be made before that of the live conductors and the last to break
during removal.
Both the trunking and the tap off unit shall have the capability to be equipped with colour-coded foolproofing device
to ensure safety interlocking.

Voltage drop along the busbar trunking system
The line-to-line voltage drop of the 3 phase 400V 50H, under evenly distributed load at power factor of 0.8 lagging,
shall not be over the following values :
Busbar rating
40A
60A
100A
13.
Voltage Drop (V/100m/A)
0.389
0.163
0.075
Test Reports/Certificates
Test Reports/Certfiicates by recognised independent test laboratories (such as ASTA Certificate Services, ASEFA,
KEMA) on the proposed equivalent type of busbar trunking system must be submitted to prove compliance with the
specifications.
