• A set of 3-phase busbars and risers of electrolytic high-grade copper rectangular bars shall be provided in the adapter

• The busbars of original panels shall be extended vertically upward by using risers to have the common standard horizontal

• The original busbar shall also be retained in its position so that the same make panel can be connected without

need of adapter cubicle.

• The busbar shall be at the height of 2074mm from the bottom of the panel and the first phase busbar shall be at the depth of

972mm from front of panel (excluding front door width). The B- Phase shall be considered as the first phase the sequence shall

be B -Y -R from the front of the panel. The center to center distance between phases shall be

200mm.The clearance between phase and earth shall be 90mm.

• The busbars and risers size shall be minimum 2 (Runs) x 75 (Width) x 10mm (Thickness) = 1500 mm2 . The length of

busbar shall be as per requirement depending upon the panels to be connected.

• The busbars and risers shall be suitably insulated by heat shrinkable sleeves having minimum dielectric strength

22kV/mm whereas busbar joints shall be covered with heat shrinkable shrouds having minimum dielectric strength

22kV/mm. Minimum thickness of sleeve shall be 1.2 mm. HT insulating tape shall not be used.

• Earthing bus of electrolytic high-grade copper having min. cross section of 240 Sq. mm shall be provided and connected

to panel earthing bus.

4. Bus Support Insulators

• Required numbers of bus support insulators shall be provided in the adapter cubicle.

5. Drawings to be submitted by the Bidder

• GA of panel with adapter cubicle (Front view, Internal view, Side view, Top view showing busbars, risers and

support insulators arrangement, all the clearances, etc.).Please refer the attached typical drawing._ Gasket
