Calculation of Low-voltage Busbars

Home / Calculation of Low-voltage Busbars

Busbar voltage drop is calculated using Vd = I x Z x L, where I is the current, Z is the impedance per unit length (R + jX), and L is the busbar length. For a rectangular copper busbar, DC resistance per metre is R = rho / (width x thickness) in micro-ohms/m. IEC 61439 is a standard developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that covers design verification for low-voltage electrical products and assemblies. This is the case of low voltage (LV) switchboards and of prefabricated transformer-switchboard connections. This quest for dependability requires studies in order to master, from the design stage, the behaviour of their components in the light of their environment and of possible operating.
