  • Patent number: 9882366
    Abstract: A busway system is provided. The busway system includes a first electrical busway section, a second electrical busway section, and a busway joint. The first and second electrical busway sections are disposed longitudinally offset from each other. The busway joint couples the first and second busway sections. The busway joint includes a first assembly coupled to the first busway section, a second assembly coupled to the second busway section, a plurality of conductors coupled to the first and second assemblies, a first movable brace coupled to the conductors, and a first brace locator coupled to the movable brace. The first and second assemblies move relative to each other between a collapsed position and an extended position. The first movable brace moves longitudinally along a length of the conductors. The first brace locator locates the first movable brace at a first position when the first assembly is in the extended position.

  • Patent number: 9590405
    Abstract: A busway system is provided. The busway system includes a first electrical busway section, a second electrical busway section, and a busway joint. The first and second electrical busway sections are disposed longitudinally offset from each other. The busway joint couples the first and second busway sections. The busway joint includes a plurality of busbars, a plurality of splice plates electrically coupled to the busbars, a first assembly coupled to the first electrical busway section, a second assembly coupled to the second electrical busway section, and an adjustment assembly coupled to the first and second assemblies. The splice plates and the busbars electrically couple the first and second electrical busway sections together. The adjustment assembly selectively moves the first and the second assemblies between a contracted position and an expanded position relative to each other.
