Voltage Drop Formula
1. Plug-in distributed loads application, divide voltage drop values by 2
2. To determine voltage drop line to neutral, multiply values from table by 0.577.
3. Actual voltage drop for different length and at loading less than full rated current can be calculated by using the formula :

Va = Vo (taore) X Actual load/Rated load x Actual length (m)/'l 00 m


4. For 50H2, multiply reactance (X) by 0.85 and resistance values do not change.
5. For 400H2, Multiply reactance by 3.75 and multiply resistance by1.4
6. Calculate newvoltage drop:Va =Amp loads x./3 x (Rcos o + Xsi n o )per'l 00m, where cos o = Power Factor
Short Circuit Protection and Capacity

Powerduct structure is designed to provide a very good short circuit protection. The short circuit has been
certified by KEMA in accordance with IEC and BSEN Publication 60439-2:2ooo.

Temperature Rise

Powerduct busway is capable of carrying its full rated


current continuously in ambient condition of 95o/o
relative humidity and maximum temperature of 50"C
without exceeding 55"C temperature rise.

Powerduct joint stack features a single bolt with double


headed design. The high strength steel bolts together

electrical contact. Double head bolt will shear off to
ensure the proper torque is applied.

It is very important to get the joint installed properly and


accurately. lmproper tightening of the connection bolts
will cause the joint overheating after certain period of
time during energizing. powerduct bolt is maintenance
