3.4Externally Mounted Battery Return Busbar

The battery return busbar is designed to mount on the overhead racking for 6000 A systems and top cabled 1500, 3000 or 4000 A power systems. It can also be mounted on a wall or on the floor below the raised floor for bottom cabled 1500, 3000 or 4000 A power systems (which are assumed to be installed on a raised, computer type floor).

3.4.1Mechanical Specifications of the External Battery Return Busbar

The external battery return busbar kit consists of a group of single busbar laminations and attachment hardware assembled as shown in Figure 17 (6000 A shown). The kit can grow verti- cally in such a way as to maintain the 3-ft maximum radius grounding requirement. Laminations are added as required to increase the capacity. The mechanical specifications of a single lamina- tion are listed in Table 22.
