Bus ducts are important components in electrical power distribution systems. They are used to efficiently and safely transfer large amounts of electrical power between various electrical equipment.

Here are some key points about bus ducts:

  1. Definition: A bus duct, also known as a busway, is a prefabricated electrical distribution system that consists of metal enclosures and conductors designed to carry and distribute electrical power in industrial, commercial, and high-rise buildings.
  2. Construction: Bus ducts are constructed using heavy-duty metal enclosures, typically made of aluminum or copper, to provide mechanical strength, protection, and efficient heat dissipation.
  3. Types: There are various types of bus ducts available, including air-insulated bus ducts, sandwich bus ducts (enclosed with insulation), and segregated-phase bus ducts (isolated conductors for higher voltages).
