Engineered Bus System
Cable Bus by Designed Systems offers a reliable and economical system to transmit large amounts of power between a plant power source and primary load centers, (generator to transformer, transformer to switchgear, switchgear to switchgear, or as a utility service connection). Engineered Reliability Cable Bus Systems are reliable because the cables are completely surrounded and protected by the enclosure. The cables are field installed without any splicing, eliminating potential weak points in the system. The enclosure is ventilated to keep the cable conductors within temperature limits and the system itself can withstand the mechanical forces from a short circuit. Engineered Economy Cable Bus is economical because with the enclosure ventilation and maintained cable spacing the cables are capable of higher ampacities than a random lay of cable or a conduit and wire system. The aluminum enclosure allows less support material than required with other systems and for installing sections of enclosure without special lift equipment. A complete set of installation drawings insures a quick and accurate installation, keeping total costs down. This website deals with voltages of 15,000 volts and less as most Cable Bus Systems operate at these voltages. For voltages over 15,000 volts or any special application, contact your local Designed Systems, Inc. representative or the factory.
