Introduction
Eaton supply all busbar sections
tested in accordance with type test
requirements as detailed in IEC61439-
6 and are subject to a full Quality Check
before packaging.
In order to ensure that the Busbar remains
in this condition during transport,
unpacking and installation on site, it is
important to study this document.
If the guidelines outlined within this
document are not adhered to, this could
give rise to the damage of the product,
electrical failure of the Busbar, personal
injury, or even death.
Manual Lifting
In accordance with Manual Lifting
Regulations the guidelines below are
provided to reduce risk of injury to
personnel and damage to equipment
during transport and installation of
busbar section.
PPE (Personal Protection Equipment)
should be worn at all times in accordance
with Health and Safety Regulations and
specifi c site requirements. When lifting
Busbar sections, care must be taken to
lift each section along its centre and not
by the end sections or conductors.
Mechanical Lifting
Some sections of Busbar may require
mechanical lifting due to their weight.
Options for mechanical lifting includes
Genie® Lift™, forklift, scissor lift,
platform lift and block and tackle. A full
assessment of the risks should be carried
out by the installer before commencing
work.
The Busbar must be safely secured to
the lifting apparatus before lifting.
Always check that the load does not
exceed the safe working load of the
lifting apparatus. Ensure that equipment
is used as per manufacturer’s guidelines.
Storage
The Busbar will be delivered to the
customer neatly stacked on a wooden
pallet for ease of removal. The maximum
weight of the pallet will not exceed
2500kg.
The Busbar is protected from minor
water ingress by means of an overall
outer polythene wrap and individual
polythene stretch wrap around the
ends of each busbar. The stretch wrap
should be left in position until the bar is
mounted and Joint Pack fi tted.
If the Busbar is not to be installed
immediately upon delivery it should be
stored in a heated, clean, dry area not
exposed to wind, rain, frost, or physical
damage.
Busbar should never be stored outdoors.
