High-power busbars

19 November 2014 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

Thanks to its versatility, Legrand’s range of Zucchini busbars provides easy adaptation to layout modifications or expansion of existing installations. These high-power busbars, which are designed for the safe and efficient distribution of electricity in industrial, commercial and service sector applications, are also quick and easy to install.

The Zucchini range is compatible with Legrand’s busbar trunking systems, cast resin transformers and XL³ cabinets, and offer flexibility even in confined spaces. Aluminium or copper busbars and cast resin transformers are equipped with various accessories to cater for any type of power application and in any environment, including areas which are subjected to high thermal stress.

This system is also suitable for environments where equipment is sensitive to electromagnetic interferences and in the presence of a large number of people.

The absence of fuel masses in the cast resin transformers is combined with a low fire load typical of busbars. This feature increases the intrinsic safety of a building against the propagation of a possible fire. This fire retardant range is tested for fire resistance according to DIN 4102-09 and EN 1366-3 standards.

The connections of high-power busbar line elements have reliable mechanical interlocks for easy installation. This design eliminates errors and prevents potential dangers which can occur with conventional systems when starting up.
