Active telecommunication equipment, frames, cabinets, raceways, and voltage protectors are typically grounded to these busbars with insulated stranded copper cable (minimum 6 AWG) with crimped-on lugs at each end. Proper bonding is essential to create an equipotential plane between service grounds and equipment during fault and transient conditions. The GRDBAR Series comes in vertical, horizontal mounting as well as horizontal rack mounting. The grounding bar is made from heavy-gauge copper that attaches to the inside of an enclosure, cabinet or open frame rack to provide consolidated equipment grounds. Solid copper grounding busbars are installed with insulated standoffs in the equipment room (minimum 1/4x4 inches by variable length), as well as in each telecommunications room or entrance facility (minimum 2 inches high is sufficient here). If you've ever wondered how to achieve a flawless busbar installation, you're in the right place. Whether in industrial, commercial, or residential applications, bus bars in electrical panels enhance power distribution, reduce wiring. In this case, bus bar configuration might be low in profile, thereby changing the orientation of the bus structure and the airflow.
