Busbar is an important component used in transmission of power from a point of supply to various other output circuits. Its applications range from transmitting current to every floor of a high rise to being used within a distribution panel or substation or any industrial process. Large loads of current can be easily carried or distributed to several devices through the busbar and therefore selecting an appropriate kind is of paramount importance.
Several methods exist for joining PILC cables such as heat shrink tubing, vacuum cast or cold shrink tubingor silica sand contained thermal setting resin transition units. There are advantages and drawbacks to each of these jointing methods. It is necessary to understand each of them before using a particular method.
Today’s age is said to be the age of polymeric cable installations. However, about 50% of the underground network of a power distribution system comprises installations of old paper-insulated cables. Though emphasis is greatly placed on ‘pushing out the lead’ the old cable installations still hold sway. In spite of these systems being many years old they still continue to function effectively as long as they are not disturbed.
Have you anytime encountered an accident while any electrical work was under progress? Chances of such incidents are not rare if adequate precautions are not taken. An apprentice electrician getting fatally injured due to touching live bus bars that have remained exposed in any industrial setting is a very simple example of such an occurrence.
