Abstract: A front-accessible bus-connection mounting frame assembly in a draw out switchgear cabinet is fastened to the back wall of the breaker cabinet. The frame assembly provides for insertion and bayonet mounting of a primary bus connector's cylindrical conductor onto the mounting frame. The primary bus connector is bayonet mounted on the internal ribs of a central cylinder of the mounting frame assembly. The primary bus connector is then fixed in position by bolts front mounted down the central cylinder and out through a bus riser fitted at the back of the mounting frame assembly to establish electrical continuity. The central cylinder further provides a current transformer bushing tube around the primary bus connector and necessary flanges to mount the mounting frame assembly to the back wall and secure the current transformers around the bushing.

Abstract: An electrical system includes an electrical device mounted within an electrical enclosure. A electrical cable is coupled to an electrical junction of the electrical device via a cable lug, the cable lug having at least two lug holes. A lug pad attaches the cable lug to the electrical device and has at least two pad holes. Each of the pad holes is aligned with a respective one of the lug holes, and at least one of the lug holes and the pad holes is a slotted hole for permitting angular adjustable positioning of the cable lug relative to the lug pad.

Abstract: Busbar clamping systems and electric power busway systems for distributing electricity are disclosed herein. An aspect of this disclosure is directed to electrical busway systems with improved means for minimizing or eliminating gaps between the busbars, the surge clamps, and the duct housing. In one embodiment, the busway system includes a plurality of electrically conductive busbars. The busbars are stacked one on top of the other to create a busbar stack. The busway system also includes a first duct side in opposing spaced relation to a second duct side. The stack of busbars is disposed between the first and second duct sides. One or more cam fasteners operatively engage the stack top and/or stack bottom. The cam fasteners are configured to apply a selectively variable compressive force to the stack of busbars.

Abstract: A busway joint pack for joining busway conductor sections has a heat sink assembly with an interstitial heat sink portion sized to fit between its connector plates; an exterior heat sink portion projecting beyond the exterior surface of a side panel of the joint pack; with the interstitial heat sink portion having thermal conduction to the exterior heat sink portion; to attain cooler operation. The heat sink may include thermally conductive dielectric materials or metals, or both, or other thermally conductive materials used with the thermally conductive dielectric materials.
