Design calculation for Bus bar
1) Fault Level for 3sec - 80 KA
2) Bus bar per phase - 4 Runs of 200 mm X 10 mm
3) Bus bar material - Copper
4) Distance between
Phase to Phase - 175 mm5) Bus bar Support - 14-P-171( R,B & Y Ph.) & 10 P 131( Neutral )
6) Material - SMC
DESIGN CALCULATION
10 -P - 131 Support Used in Neutral ( 2 Run of 200mm X 10 mm )

a) SHORT CIRCUIT
14 -P - 171 Support Used in R,Y & B Phase(4 Run of 200mm X10 mm)
Minimum cross sectional area of Copper Bus bar required during 80 KA for 3 sec. Short circuit test.
The formula to calculate this is given in the J & P Switchgear Hand Book .
( I/A ) t = 0.122
or A = ( I/0.122) t
or A = ( 80 /0.122 ) 3
or A= 1135mm2
The cross section of Bus bar being used (4 10 200) mm2 equals to 8000 mm2 ( much higher than
required section ) .

The value of Space Factor (K) is determined from the graph firstly by determiningthe ratio (s-a)/(a + b) and then from the value on the base scale projecting upwards to the pt. Of
intersection with the curve appropriate to the ratio a/b.( a=total thickness of Bus bar per phase &
b= width of Bus bar ) . The value for the K can be calculated from the Graph given in J&P Handbookby taking the ratio of the following
s-a------- and comparing it with the value of a/b.
a + b
Here value of a = 70 mm & b = 200 mm
Distance between Phase to Phase ( s) = 175 mm
so ( S -a ) / ( a + b ) = 0.4 and ( a/b) = 0.35
From Graph Value of K ( approx. ) = 0.86

Breaking Force of the Bus bar support
Section side - 42 mm 35.4 mm
Area of Cross Section( which is likely to break during short circuit ) support
= Surface area of the support
= ( 4.2 cm 3.54 cm )
= 14.87 cm2Breaking force of the bus bar support = Area of Cross Section ( which is likely to break,during Short
Circuit ) of the support Tensile Force of the material ( 700 Kg f )
= 14.87 cm2 700 Kg f/cm2
= 10407 Kg f
Breaking force of the Bus bar Supports > cal. Value (1797 kg f ) which is quite suitable to
withstand force.

1797
= 5.8
Calculated value of the Dynamic Force from the data given is lesser than the Breaking Strength
of the Support used. So Bus bar Support can easily withstand on the Fault Level of 80 KA for
3 sec.
