Busbar Selection Chart

This document provides details on the construction and carrying capacity of copper and aluminum bus bars at 350C ambient temperature and 300C temperature rise. Tables list various standard sizes of bars in mm, their cross sectional area and weight per meter. The continuous current carrying capacity in Amps for AC and DC circuits of different bus bar configurations is specified. Notes mention that capacity must be derated for ambient temperatures above 350C and provide minimum insulator distances for 50kA capacity.
