Notes: 34
Voltage Drop = E3 I (R cos ø + X sin ø) Volts/100 ft (30.5 m)—concen-
trated load, where cos ø = power factor.
For plug-in distributed loads, divide the voltage drop by 2. See IEEE 35
Standard 141-13-8.3.
Actual voltage drop for loads less than full rated current and different
lengths may be calculated by multiplying the values from 36
Table 24.0-14 by (actual/rated current) x (actual length/100 ft [30.5 m]).

Combination Offsets
22 Combination offsets are used to conform to the building’s CL
structure and change direction, utilizing a small amount
of space. They are two different oriented elbows fabricated
23 into a single fitting. Forward or rearward directions are
determined by the “T” and “F” locations. Please refer
to Page 24.0-16. Minimum leg lengths are listed in

This type of transient is generated within a facility’s own

Quad Receptacle Unit
The quad receptacle plug-in unit, shown in Figure 24.0-71, 31
is configured to order and uses Type CH single-, two- and
three-pole plug-in circuit breakers. Each unit comes with
2–4 NEMA configured receptacles in any combination of 32
straight blade and twist-lock and three-, four- and five-wire,
rated 15–50 A. Each receptacle can be fixed mounted to the
front of the enclosure or cord mounted from the bottom of 33
the enclosure (not as shown). Cord lengths are 1–15 feet in
1-foot increments. Consult NEC Sections 368, 400 and 645
for cord drop applications. 34

elbows, offsets, tees, cable tap boxes, Rearward

24
These fittings, along with standard and
minimum dimensions, are described Forward 12.00
on the following pages. (304.8) 25
When making field measurements and
layouts, it should be remembered that 26

Standard Flanges
22 Flanges provide for a direct connection to low voltage
switchgear, switchboards, panelboards, motor control centers
and other electrical equipment. Cutout dimensions and drilling
23 plans are provided with the customer installation drawings,
and it is the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer to
provide the opening, flange drillings, connecting hardware
24 and bus risers in their electrical equipment. For proper N
coordination between the busway and other equipment,
detailed drawings, including equipment orientation, must
25 accompany the order prior to release and manufacture. C
Figure 24.1-9 shows the standard/minimum flange
26 length and phase-to-phase dimensions for all ratings and
configurations. Nonstandard lengths and phase-to-phase B
dimensions are also available.

Offsets
An offset is used to allow the busway layout, avoid any 22
obstacles and to conform to the building’s structure. It is two 12.00
(304.8)
elbows fabricated into a single fitting for use where space
restrictions prohibit the use of two traditional elbows. 23
There are four types of offsets available: forward, rearward, 12.00
upward and downward, allowing the busway layout to offset (304.8)
in any direction. 24
Figure 24.1-10 shows the standard/minimum leg lengths
for each type of offset for all ratings and configurations. 25
Nonstandard lengths are also available.

There are two designs for end cable tap boxes. One is for a (304.8)
left-hand orientation and one for a right-hand orientation. 29
The two separate designs allow for the bus to be mounted

the Pow-R-Flex low-ampere busway flush against a wall. The
Type L brackets are sold as a two-piece hanger set and come
with the hardware to mount the hanger to the busway. One

hanger should be used every 10 feet (3 m), and the busway
span between hangers should not exceed 10 feet (3 m). 34
