Cable Bus System

A cable bus system is a type of power distribution system used to transmit large amounts of electrical power over short to medium distances within industrial and commercial facilities. It typically consists of a set of insulated power cables supported by a metal enclosure or bus, which serves as both a protective barrier and a structural support for the cables. The cables within the bus system are often arranged in a flat or trefoil configuration.

The cable bus system provides a flexible and efficient means of distributing power, and it is commonly used in applications where high power capacity is required, such as in large manufacturing plants, data centers, and other industrial settings. It offers advantages like ease of installation, scalability, and the ability to accommodate future expansions or modifications to the power distribution system. Additionally, the metal enclosure provides protection against physical damage and helps contain any potential fire hazards associated with electrical faults.
