Bustrunking System

General
Busbar Trunking System for electrical distribution is an alternative to cumbersome conventional cable distribution system . Decentralized distribution is the main highlight of this distribution system. This system eliminates separate requirement of distribution & panel boards. Loads can be fed from Plug-in Boxes unlike cables where each floor /machine is to be fed separately from the main switchboard.

BASE CHANEL

Close proximity of busbars doesnt allow mutual inductance between phases yeilding low reactance, low impedance, low voltage drop and low power loss. Specially designed housing tightened at every 250 mm act as a heat sink to yeild improved thermal characteristic, high mechanical and short circuit strength. Due to elimination of air there is no rise of chimney effect, so no fire barriers are required. Due to compactness system can be installed in lesser space. Automatic polarity is maintained during installation.

Installation - Spring Hanger


Fit the Spring Hanger to the U clamp already fitted to both side of the bustrunking (Rising Mains).. Remove nut A from Rigid hanger assembly, and pass the M16 bolt thru the holes in the C channel already grouted on the floor/wall Due to bustrunking weight the spring will compress and creates a gap between nut C and L support. Tighten nut C to eliminate the gap. Adjust nut B on both sides of bustrunking until it reaches desired level for fixing joint with lower bustrunking. Ensure that nut B is adjusted equally on both sides to install bustrunking vertically straight. Lock nut A from lower end of bolt to the C channel. Repeat steps for subsequent bustrunking. Loosen nut C to allow enough gap for spring to expand under thermal conditions after complete installation.

Installation Instructions
General Preparation
First check that the intended route for the bus trunking is clear of all obstructions an that all apertures in walls and floors are of correct size and at correct location. Apertures should generally leave 50mm around the Bustrunking enclosure. Please refer layout and assembly drawings for any special features. Determine fixed points of the installation (feed units, flanged end, elbows, tee etc.) anthen decide support points. Ensure there is sufficient horizontal and vertical clearance from the wall and ceiling to provide easy access to joints, both for original installation and for any future maintenance requirements. The bus trunking should be located away from polluted atmosphere such as corrosive fumes, furnace gases and chemicals etc.

Handling / Hoisting

Unpacking

Care must be taken while unpacking. Cutter, should be used to cut all steel straps securing the package. Nail pullers should be used for unpacking wooden casings. Carefully remove any support blocks or other fittings which may have been used for shipping. When Bustrunking is received, unpack temporarily to inspect its physical condition. Also check and ensure that the consignment is complete and correct as per the order. Restore the materials in original packing condition, if it is required to be stored for longer period prior to installation. It is recommended to remove the polythene sheet (covering the entire Bustrunking) only after completion of installation, in order to protect the Bustrunking from water, slurry & paint etc. during installation. Never keep the Bustrunking in inclined / vertical condition. Stacking should be firmly supported to prevent any slippage. Always store the Bustrunking products in original packing to avoid any damage, deformations and entry of any contaminants like dust, moisture and vermins. Cover trunking with water proof sheets. Bus trunking should be adequately protected from liquids, moisture and other contaminants. Some common source of contaminants are : Moisture / Water dripping Bus trunking must be protected from these contaminants during installation. Bus trunkin is not weather resistant until completely installed with all covers & boxes fitted & secured. Floor level liquids Ideally water bank of min. 125mm height should be installed around all floor openings for riser bus trunking to prevent liquid spillages from entering in the opening and running down the bus trunking. Leaking Roof Protect bus trunking with a temporary protective cover to prevent water from falling on to the Bustrunking directly until the roof is repaired. Pipes Protect bus trunking with a temporary protective cover to prevent water falling onto the busbar until leaking pipes are repaired. Where pipes (especially cold water pipes) pass directly above bus trunking, the busbar should be protected from dripping condensate by insulating the pipe or permanently shielding the bus trunking.

Storage

Protection From Contaminants

These guidelines are provided to reduce the risk of personal injury, equipment damage during handling and also to facilitate movement of the bus trunking sections and accessories at site. Handle bus trunking with care to avoid damage to internal components and the enclosure. While transporting, take care not to drop it or let it hit other object. A fork lift may offer a more convenient method of handling and has the added advantage of permitting it to be hoisted between levels. Ensure the load is stable and safely secured. Platform lifts or elevators, either manually or power operated, can be used advantageously in moving bus trunking equipments between elevations. Check that the weight of personnel plus trunking is within the capacity of the lift / elevator. While lifting vertical lengths, take care to use an adequate sling and slinging method so that the equipment does not slip or fall. If a crane is used to install bus trunking, use nylon straps and distribute the weight on each lift. If cables are used, insert thick pieces of foam or corrugated cardboard between them to prevent the bus trunking from being damaged. Do not place slings, cables or chains around bus trunking ends since damage can easily occur. If a fork lift or similar hoist is used, properly position the bus trunking on the fork to distribute its weight. Careful approach is a must to avoid any damage to the metal housing that would break busbar insulators and result in a failure. Do not drag bus trunking across the floor or across other busbar sections. While installing vertical section, it may be easier to lower the bus trunking from one floor above where it will be installed. Vertical sections are often stored on the floor above their final location to facilitate lowering them into position. Do not damage end of trunking when raising from horizontal to vertical positions. When the work is suspended during the installation, the ends of the connecting sections should be protected against water and dust by keeping the trunking covered with polythene. When the work is suspended during the installation, the ends of the connecting sections should be protected against water and dust by keeping the trunking covered with polythene. Never use busbars / conductors of Bustrunking for lifting sections.

Hanging / Supporting

Fix support with ceiling/wall/structure to accommodate bustrunking hangers before proceeding with fixing of bustrunking. Do not leave Bustrunking section unsupported at ends while next section is being fitted as this could cause damage. Use supports/brackets to ensure trunking remains correctly aligned at all times. Level and plumb Bustrunking (align vertically and horizontally) before final tightening of all joint hardware. In case the Insulation Resistance is found abnormal after installation of complete route, much time is spent to detect faulty parts. It is therefore recommended that the insulation resistance checking be partially conducted by 500V megger even during the installation.

Installation Instructions
Horizontal installation
Two types of horizontal supports are available . Choose one depending upon Edgewise installtion as shown in diagram. It is generally preferred to install edgewise. After hangers have been installed with tie rods (Not part of bustrunking supply), bustrunking length may be joined starting from EFU / Flanged End. To connect one length to the other please refer Figure-1 Horizontal support need to be tighten with hanger once the run is completed. Spacing between two brackets It is recommended to support Bustrunking at intervals of around 1.5 meters (1.0mtr minimum & 2 meters maximum) depending upon following points: Shape, strength, rigidness and distance of hangers from ceiling / wall. Rating (Low/high) and numbers of plug-in boxes to be fitted between two brackets. Ensure each element of Bustrunking run is supported by at least one bracket. As far as possible avoid fixing of bracket at Bustrunking joint area and at plug-in point window. Minimum distance between two Bustrunking will increase if plug-in box/end fe ed unit/reducer etc. is fitted in any of the straight run. 100mm clearance need to be considered between two boxes / unit installed on parallel runs. Space required for door opening should also be considered. 100mm min. clearance should be considered in case of trunking running close to beam / columns / pillars

Vertical Installation
For Vertical Installation two types of hangers are provided : Rigid hanger at lowest floor and spring hanger for all balance floors. Floor opening and minimum Clearances Following sizes of opening and clearances are recommended for comfortable installation, operation and maintenance (however actual decision will always depend upon the site condition).

FLOOR CUT - OUT


Never fill floor opening with mortar / cement. Minimum clearances between two trunking running parallel should be 100mm. between plug-in-boxes /end feed units / reducers etc. Space required for door opening should also be considered. Floor opening should be completely covered /sealed.

Installation Instructions

Earthing
Bond the internal / external earthing busbars of bustrunking to main earthing of system with adequate busbars or cable links as per standards and electrical regulations. For bustrunking with internal earth, continuity is maintained through joints. And for bustrunking with external earth continuity is maintained through external links. Plug-in-boxes have integral earth clip which makes automatic contact while plugging the box on to the bustrunking.

Periodic checking
Even though the system is virtually maintenance free following checks are recommended (for guaranteeing safe usage of the bustrunking for a long time) preferably once in a year. (a) Check the external appearances Check to ensure there is no deformation, damage, dust etc. through out the whole length of the bus trunking and there is no dislocation, bending and other abnormality of the connecting covers, hangers an plug-in- boxes. (b) Environmental check Environment where the bus trunking is used sometimes changes after its installation. Check that the environment is not hazardous even partially due to water, moisture, high temperature, corrosive gas, immoderate vibration, dust etc. (c) Check the joint connections Since the spring washers are employed in busbar joints, there shall be no problem of joint loosening. Therefore, periodical check is not necessary if recommended torque is applied to the joint clamp assembly during installation. However it is advisable to re-check the tightening after full loading of bustrunking for 24 hou (d) Check the load condition Check and ensure that total load is not exceeding the capacity of bustrunking. Especially, pay attention when the main line is branched by elbows, tees or crosses. (e) Check the insulation resistance (IR) Highly insulating, non-hygroscopic Insulation material are used for busbars, hence IR value should not reduce at later stage. Still it is advisable to check IR value by megger (500V) periodically. Review all layout drawings and other technical details very carefully. Check description and identification of each piece before installing it. Follow the joint assembly instructions. Check insulation resistance while fixing sections of bustrunking during installation. Check for possible source of contaminants that may fall on the bus trunking during installation and take preventive actions.

Inspection after installation


Before energizing check: (a) Whether the bus trunking is not damaged. (b) Whether the connecting parts are fixed precisely. (c) Whether the bolt connecting the equipment are securely fastened. (d) Whether the hangers are supporting the bus trunking securely. (e) Whether all the joint covers and tap off outlet covers of bus trunking are closed. (f) Whether all busbar joints are tightened to the recommended torque. (g) Whether end covers are fitted to the end of all runs. Thereafter INSULATION RESISTANCE of complete installation (Run wise) shall be checked after disconnecting all equipments either by opening the isolator switch or setting the breakers in OFF position. The insulation resistance value can not be specified due to the difference of the length of run / route and the environmental condition, but if it is a dried atmosphere, normally it shows a value above 100Mega ohms (500V megger). In case it is below 10Mega ohms it has to be checked as it is most likely that there may exist some factors which are reducing the insulation. Megger value of bustrunking section individually can be carried out by isolating joint assembly to locate the fault. Reason for low insulation value can be due to above mentioned (a) to (g) factors, presence of moisture /contaminants or breakage of joint insulators Defective section may be put to hot blowing air for drying the moisture and improving megger value. If the insulation value does not improve, contact the C&S.
