Technical Advantages
Triple-Layer Co-Extrusion Technology: The conductor shielding, insulation layer, and insulation shielding are extruded and formed simultaneously, ensuring tight and gapless interfaces between layers, significantly enhancing the overall product performance.
Optimized Electric Field Design: The terminals employ a prefabricated cold-shrink structure, which redistributes the electric field at voltage concentration points through stress cones, reduces electric field intensity, and minimizes discharge and insulation damage.
Reliable Connection and Current-Carrying Capacity: Terminal adapters enable a smooth transition from the circular copper tube conductor to flexible expansion joints, reducing temperature rise at the ends and ensuring the conductor’s current-carrying capacity. Intermediate joints use stainless steel inner sleeve connections for conductors, secured externally with two semi-circular connecting bus bars, and tightened and welded using four stainless steel C-clamp specialized tools, ensuring conductor current-carrying capacity and preventing deformation.
Compact and Waterproof Structure: Joints are compact and easy to install. Specially waterproofed intermediate joints support the short-term submersion operation of the bus bar.
| Product structure and requirements |
 |
The composite shielded insulated tubular busbar is a combination of a tubular (copper or aluminium) busbar conductor and a conductor shield, insulation, insulation shield, etc., extruded by polymer to realise the conduction current and shielding insulation of the busbar.
Main raw material selection: conductor copper hard tube (specially customised), inner screen, outer screen, an EPDM rubber, a metal shielding layer, a copper foil, an outer sheath, and a polyolefin polymer insulation.
Core technology: three-layer co-extrusion technology -extrusion quality assurance, the interface between the internal and external shielding and insulation is tight without a gap, which greatly improves the performance of the insulated tube bus; Insulated tube busbar joint technology adopts shielded tube joint to make the product complete. |

| Advantages of the extruded insulated tube type busbar |
 |
| The terminal adapter connects the round conductor copper pipe with the soft expansion joint connection end, achieving a smooth transition from round to square, reducing the end temperature rise, and ensuring the conductor current carrying capacity. The stress cone is used to change the electric field distribution at the voltage concentration of the prefabricated cold shrink terminal, reduce the electric field intensity, reduce the product discharge, reduce the insulation damage, improve the performance of the tube bus, ensure the operation life of the tube bus, and reduce the breakdown accident rate. |
| Production technology of insulated tube-type busbar |
| Advantages of the joint: small structure, easy to install, after special treatment can be immersed in water for a short time, by changing the geometric shape of the tube busbar joint voltage concentration to change the electric field distribution, reduce the electric field strength, in order to reduce the possibility of corona generation, reduce insulation damage, improve the performance of the tube busbar, ensure the operating life of the tube busbar, reduce the breakdown accident rate. |

| Typical application solutions for insulated tube busbars |
Method 1: Connect the main transformer to the control room
This is the most common way of tubular busbar application. The busbar is directly connected from the low-voltage terminals of the main transformer to the
switch cabinet terminals in the control room. Main advantages: Suitable for large currents. The wiring is clear and beautiful, and can be fully insulated or semi-insulated. |
 |
Method 2: The busbar is routed through a cable trench or cable mezzanine
The figure below is another common way of applying tubular busbars. The busbars can be connected to switch cabinets through underground cable trenches
or cable mezzanines, and can also be used for connections between switch cabinets. This busbar is fully insulated and is particularly suitable for situations
where wiring is difficult. |
 |
Method 3:Tubular busbars are routed through cable trenches or cable mezzanines
This method is the top cable connection method of the switch cabinet. It can also be connected through the cable mezzanine and the bottom cable connection
method. Users can choose according to the actual situation. The busbar type is fully insulated. |

Method 4:Tubular bus CNC monitoring system
Our company develops it by itself and implements unmanned intelligent monitoring of multiple technical data of the tube bus. |

Advantages of Prefabricated Cold-Shrink Intermediate Joints
Compact structure, easy to install.
Alters the electric field distribution at voltage concentration points of the tubular bus bar joint by modifying its geometric shape, thereby reducing electric field intensity.
Aims to minimize the likelihood of corona discharge, reduce insulation damage, and improve the performance of the tubular bus bar.
Ensures the operational lifespan of the tubular bus bar and reduces the incidence of breakdown accidents.
Direct contact between conductors is achieved through stainless steel inner sleeves, connected externally with two semi-circular bus bars. Four stainless steel C-clamps are tightened and welded using specialized tool molds, ensuring conductor current-carrying capacity and preventing deformation.
After waterproof treatment, intermediate joints allow the bus bar to operate briefly while submerged in water.
