Bus bar mounting arrangement

摘要

A polyphase bus bar mounting structure (10) mounted to a support structure (26) is disclosed. The support structure (26) may comprise any of a rack, wall or a segment of a wind turbine tower. The polyphase bus bar mounting structure (26) has a plurality of cylindrical tubular conductors (12) arranged substantially parallel to each other. Each of the tubular conductors (12) has first and second opposing end portions (24, 25) adapted for connection with conductors (12) of other polyphase bus bar mounting structures. Insulation (14) surrounds each of the tubular conductors. The bus bar mounting structure has first and second connectors (22, 60). The first connector (22) fixedly mounts the cylindrical tubular conductors (12) adjacent the first end portions (24) thereof to the support structure (26). The second connector (60) flexibly mounts the cylindrical tubular conductors (12) adjacent the second end portions (25) thereof to the support structure (26).
