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.

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 coupled to the busbars, and a vise brace surrounding the busbars and the splice plates. The splice plates and the busbars electrically couple the first and second electrical busway sections. The vise brace includes a clamp screw to selectively provide a compressive force to the busbars and the splice plates.

Abstract: A busway system is provided. The busway system includes a first electrical busway section and a busway joint. The busway joint includes a plurality of conductors spaced apart in parallel and a first assembly. The conductors and the first assembly are coupled to the first busway section. The first assembly includes a plurality of insulation laminations spaced apart to define a plurality of gaps, a plurality of insulating spacers positioned within the gaps adjacent the conductors, and a plurality of bracing fasteners extending through the insulation laminations and the insulating spacers. Each gap receives at least one conductor. A width of the gap is substantially filled by the conductors and the insulating spacers. The bracing fasteners secure the conductors within the first assembly.
