Benefits of a staggered busbar system

HERGO

The Hergo busbar system is our most compelling product: beyond exclusivity as a Cabel System owned European patented design, Hergo is unique in its benefits and capacity for customization.

The system benefits include:

01

VISIBILITY

All copper segments and connections can be visually inspected since busbars are arranged both on a vertical and horizontal axis
02

ACCESSIBILITY

All busbars can be easily accessed and inspected for maintenance since the busbar systems are appropriately placed inside the switchboard
03

RESILIENCE

The system performs at high resilience: at a short circuit of 90kA, the busbar supports remain aligned with the upright mounts
04

STURDINESS

The Hergo system was TYPE tested at CESI after an In=6300 A busbar has undergone a stress of 150 kA - 330 pkA peak, the test was carried out without use of protection relays (unconditional for all equipment / devices)
05

FLEXIBILITY

The Hergo system is provided with flexible supports, capable of absorbing and dissipating the vibrations generated by the current flow and installation environment
06

INSULATION

The system is especially effective in humid and dusty environments, exposed to high dielectric strength and / or surface resistivity (such as foundries, planing mills, cement factories, tanneries, and marine environments)
07

DISSIPATION

The heating effect across the busbars is greatly reduced as these are arranged on different levels, with full exposure between phases if compared to traditional parallel systems
08

EASY ACCESS FOR INSPECTION

Tightening is done using torque wrenches, and red paint indications on fastening elements indicate any loosening - as a result, all connections can be checked while the switchboard is powered
09

COMPACTNESS

Hergo is the only system which can reach 5000-6000A ratings, while measuring a compact 30 cm in height and depth
10

SPEED

Faster site work and modification as well as reduced downtime - all thanks to the Hergo system phase arrangement. Operators can add switches and modify plants all without the need to remove any busbars
