20Pages

The Eaton Power Xpert XP2 is a 1000 Volt totally encased, non-ventilated, low impedance busbar. The range is available from 1000A - 6600A with multiple bar configurations to suit project requirements. The busbar is housed in an aluminium casing which acts as an earth. Ingress protection ratings are available from IP55. Features: – Copper conductor, with tin or silver coated finish – Joint pack construction with double headed shear nuts for quick installation – Up to 5 tap off points per 3m length – All tap offs have mechanical/electrical interlocks with an ‘earth first, break last’ safety...

■ Eaton Power Xpert XP2 busbar system is constructed from high density 99.99% conductivity copper ■ The conductors are insulated with a Class B or Class F epoxy insulation applied uniformly using an electrostatic coating process. The epoxy coating is non-hygroscopic and chemical resistant with outstanding heat transfer characteristics ■ The low impedance sandwich design: - Improves heat dissipation - Improves short circuit rating - Reduces voltage drop/ impedance - Removes potential pathways for flame, smoke and gas The patented process of pressed out tabs to connect tap off units protects...

Straight Lengths Straight lengths can be supplied at any length between 600mm - 3000mm. Feeder Lengths Feeder lengths account for the bulk of a busbar run. Distribution Lengths Distribution lengths allow tap off units to be plugged into the busbar run. The tap off slot outlet and cover are made from a durable, high strength, Class B, 130°C insulation material. The tap off slot cover prevents access to the contacts behind the cover and protects it from the entry of dirt, dust or moisture. Tap off units are IP55 as standard but higher levels can be achieved upon request. Distribution lengths...

Edgewise Elbows Flatwise and Edgewise Elbows Flatwise and edgewise elbows are used to make 90° changes in the direction of the busbar system. Eaton can also manufacture specially angled elbows for both flatwise and edgewise products. EATON wb-copper-en

Offset Sections An offset is used to avoid any obstacles eg. pipes or to steel columns and to conform to the structure of the building. EATON wb-copper-en

Combination Elbows Combination elbows are used to conform to the building's structure and to change the direction of the busbar within a confined space. Ratings |(Amps) Flatwise Up Edgewise Right Ratings |(Amps) EATON wb-copper-en

Flange Connections Flange connections provide a direct connection to low voltage switchgear, transformer enclosures and other electrical equipment. Standard flanges can be offset to the left or right of the section as required. Panel Flange EATON wb-copper-en Parallel Flange

Combination Flange A combination flange is used when the minimum leg lengths for either the standard elbow or the standard flange cannot be met. Edgewise Elbow Flange Ratings Flange/Elbows (Edgewise) Ratings EATON wb-copper-en

Flatwise Tee Flatwise tee's are used to split one busbar run into two runs going indifferent directions. Expansion Units Expansion units are used to accommodate the expansion and contraction of a busbar system as well as allow for building movement. They allow for a 40mm movement along the length of the busbar. Expansion units are recommended when a straight busbar run exceeds 60m. EATON wb-copper-en

FEED UNITS & CAPS Cable Feed Units End feed units are used on the ends of busbar risers which are cable fed. Centre feed units are used in the middle of busbar risers which are cable fed. The size of cable feed required depends on a number of factors: End Feed Units use of a protective device or isolator End Caps End caps are used to safely cap off the end of a busbar Centre Feed Units run. The end cap units are factory fitted but can be easily removed to allow for the extension of the system.

INSTALLATION The modular design of Eaton Power Xpert XP2 busbar range allows it to be installed flat or on its edge. The installation is determined by: - Busbar route - Type of installation - Available space - Size of busbar Edge Installation Flat Installation Spring Hanger Edge installation is the preferred Flat installation is the preferred Spring hangers are used to support vertical busbar runs on smaller rated busbar system. higher rated, multistack busbar each floor. They compensate system. When installed on thermal expansion. Edge Installation Flat Installation Spring Hanger Special...
