Introduction of Busway Trunking Systems

Creating a design concept for a power supply system, not only involves observing applicable standards and regulations, but also examining and clarifying economic and technical requirements. For electrical equipment selection should be based on whether the entire system can achieve the best configuration, but not limited to the integral features of equipments. For example, in choosing of connection between cabinets and transformers for the distribution, it should take into account the connections between devices as a whole rather individual choice.Components should not only be appropriate for rated operation, but should also be suitably dimensioned to withstand faults situations. A power distribution concept should also take the following points into consideration.

● Building type, use and form ( for example, high-rise building, flat buildings and number of floors ).
● Load centers and possible supply paths and location for transformers and main distribution boards
● Regulations and guidelines of building authorities
● Power supply company guidelines

There will always be more than one possible solution which will have to be assessed in terms of its technical and economic advantages and disadvantages. In making this assessment, the following requirements should be a priority.

● Simple and transparent design
● Long service life
● High availability
● Fire protecting performance
● Flexible adaptation to building modifications

These requirements are generally easy to meet with appropriate Busway trunking systems. For this reason, engineers and design company increasingly favor busway trunking systems over cable installations for power transmission and distribution applications.
