Read MoreHome / Classification of High Voltage Small Busbars
Tubular Busbars: Supported by column insulators (usually ceramic), these offer high mechanical strength and superior corona resistance. Busbars are constructed from conductive metal bars, typically made of copper or aluminum, with a large cross-sectional area and insulated by specialized materials. These metal bars are connected together using welds or bolts, forming a complete conductive system. This document provides an overview of Intercable's product line of High Voltage extruded Busbars, the applicable geometry, attachment components as well as a summary of tests conducted per customer product validations.
