Sizing of Risers and Busways: WGB Technical Guide

Safety and Efficiency in Riser Design

Proper sizing of electrical risers is fundamental to the stability of heavy industries. Therefore, the choice between conventional cables and shielded busbars defines the system's performance. Furthermore, errors in calculating the design current lead to unwanted production downtime. Therefore, we rigorously adhere to voltage drop and heating criteria.

The Effectiveness of Busway Systems

O Busway It offers a superior alternative to traditional cable lines. For example, it drastically reduces the space occupied in shafts. Consequently, it facilitates maintenance and increases the modularity of the industrial installation. However, its installation requires absolute technical precision. In this way, we guarantee that thermal dissipation occurs as expected by the project.

Compliance with NBR 5410

The electrical design must comply with the guidelines of... NBR 5410. This standard establishes strict limits for overload protection. On the other hand, NR-10 complements these requirements by addressing safety in electrical work. Thus, every detail of the project is validated to avoid risks of fire or electric arcs. For example, when designing for a plant located near the Itajaí port complex, we considered the salinity and humidity of the air in the specified materials.

Precise Technical Dimensioning

First, we calculate the installed load and the demand factor. Then, we select the ideal conductor to handle the short-circuit current. Additionally, we evaluate the installation method, since grouping conductors alters the current-carrying capacity. However, the use of busbars simplifies this thermal analysis. Therefore, WGB prioritizes busways in high-load-density projects.
