Why a busbar system?
Technical changes reserved 7
Flexible
We comply with the customer’s specifications when creating the routing plan for
the busbar system. The route is adapted to local circumstances and can be
modified at any time. Modifications and expansions with unibar components are
possible at any time after the installation of the busbar trunking system. In this
way, all the requirements for the strand course can be met. Tap-off units up to
630 A can be plugged into the plug-in of straight busbar elements, even when
there is current on the busbar run.
Cost-effective
When considering costs, attention must be paid not only to the purchase price of
the material, but also to the assembly costs. An expansion will also contribute
considerably to the overall costs. The following graphics illustrate potential cost
savings from using busbars in contrast to laying cables. Incidentally, the graphics
do not take account of the additional savings due to the lower space
requirements of busbars:
Example of cost comparison for initial installation: due
to the lower assembly costs, savings are possible
when busbars are used Example of cost comparison including 1st Expansion:
with the expansion, busbars offer the possibility of
significantly lower overall costs
