Abstract
A touch protected busbar system (TP-BSYS) comprising at least one hybrid busbar (1) having a current-carrying rail profile (2) and a contact-receiving rail profile (3) providing contact openings (4) configured to receive protruding electrical contacts (6) of electrical devices (ED-A) to be connected to said touch protected busbar system (TP-BSYS), wherein the at least one hybrid busbar (1) is at least partially covered by electrical isolating touch protection elements (TPE) of said touch protected busbar system (TP-BSYS) and/or at least partially encapsulated by an electrical isolating layer.
Claims30
A touch protected busbar system comprising:
- at least one hybrid busbar having a current-carrying rail profile;
- and
- a contact-receiving rail profile providing contact openings configured to receive protruding electrical contacts of electrical devices to be connected to said touch protected busbar system,
- wherein the at least one hybrid busbar is at least partially covered by electrical isolating touch protection elements of said touch protected busbar system and/or at least partially encapsulated by an electrical isolating layer, and
- wherein the electrical isolating touch protection elements are mounted by busbar mounting hooks on the at least one hybrid busbar and includes latch openings adapted to receive device mounting latches of electrical devices to be connected to said touch protected busbar system.
A touch protected busbar system comprising:
- at least one hybrid busbar having a current-carrying rail profile;
- and
- a contact-receiving rail profile providing contact openings configured to receive protruding electrical contacts of electrical devices to be connected to said touch protected busbar system,
- wherein the at least one hybrid busbar is at least partially covered by electrical isolating touch protection elements of said touch protected busbar system and/or at least partially encapsulated by an electrical isolating layer,
- wherein the at least one hybrid busbar of said touch protected busbar system, and other hybrid busbars or non-hybrid busbars included in said touch protected busbar system, are mounted on busbar support elements of said touch protected busbar system, and
- wherein the busbar support elements are configured to receive electrical devices covering the busbar support elements.
A touch protected busbar system comprising:
- at least one hybrid busbar having a current-carrying rail profile;
- and
- a contact-receiving rail profile providing contact openings configured to receive protruding electrical contacts of electrical devices to be connected to said touch protected busbar system,
- wherein the at least one hybrid busbar is at least partially covered by electrical isolating touch protection elements of said touch protected busbar system and/or at least partially encapsulated by an electrical isolating layer,
- wherein several of said electrical isolating touch protection elements are integrated forming a front side electrical isolating touch protection panel at a front side of said touch protected busbar system, and
- wherein the front side electrical isolating touch protection panel is mechanically connected with a rear side electrical isolating touch protection panel at a rear side of said touch protected busbar system opposite said front side, to form an electrical isolating housing encapsulating the at least one hybrid busbar of said touch protected busbar system.
