Flexible insulated busbars consist of several layers of uncoated or tinned copper strips and are insulated with highly flexible PVC compound with extrusion technology. They are excellently suitable for high current connections inside switchgears, switchboards or other electro technical installations.
Ø Easy assembly: it could be easily bended and fixed with hands or easy tools.
Ø Possibility of reducing sizes of the equipment:
Due to favorable thermal radiation properties, the flexible insulated busbars can handle heavier current loads than solid busbars of the same cross-section.
Due to good insulating performance of the PVC, it could be possible to reduce the distances between different flexible insulated busbars and between the flexible insulated busbars and earth.
The bending-radius could be smaller than that of normal cable or solid copper bars, so that the connections could be more simple and short.
Ø Lower temperature rise on the flexible insulated busbars than on normal copper bars.
Ø High flexibility: no problem with vibrations or thermal expansions.
The flexibility of the bars makes it possible to install into difficult equipment or small places very easily. They can be particularly well used as connectors in switchgears and between transformers, switching devices and prefabricated power networks.
