Bus duct also known as Busway, is the key part of electrical power distribution system, provides an alternative means of conducting electricity. Bus ducts are used both in commercial and industrial settings to conduct electricity to power cables, which is also known s cable bus.
A Bus duct is simply a sheet metal duct containing busbars which is either Aluminuim or copper, may be metallic strip or bars to conduct the electrical current, in a grounded Metal enclosure.
Bus duct is easy to maintain and flexible, helping to accommodate changing load requirements.
High Voltage (HV) Bus Ducts are critical components in electrical power systems, used to conduct electrical power within industrial plants, substations, and large commercial buildings. They provide a safe and efficient way to transfer high voltage electrical power from one part of a system to another.
