High current and low current electrical busway systems having compatible bus plug

摘要

A low-current busway which includes a busbar spacing compatible with a high-current busway is described. A common bus plug connector for use with a high-current busway and a low-current busway is also described. The low-current busway includes busbars defined by first centerline-to-centerline spacing and a first thickness. The high-current busway includes busbars which include plug-in tabs with a second centerline-to-centerline spacing generally equal to the first spacing. The plug-in tabs are of a second thickness generally equal to the first thickness. The common bus plug connector includes a plurality of conducting fingers spaced at a third centerline-to-centerline spacing generally equal to the first and second spacings.
