Testing
Cable Bus Systems are used for primary feeders and can be exposed to large short circuit currents. Designed Systems Enterprises, Inc. has had an independent laboratory subject our Cable Bus Systems successfully to the following three phase short circuit currents:
|
Number of Cables within System |
