Field Name

Definition

Nominal Voltage

This field allows you to indicate the system voltage for which the bus bar is rated. Values could include 7.2 kV Grounded Y, 24.9 kV Grounded Y, 2400 Delta, etc.

Operating Voltage

This field allows you to indicate the standard level at which the system is currently being operated. This may be higher or lower than the nominal voltage.

Phase Designation

Use this field to indicate the phases present on the conductor (i.e. A, AB, AC, etc.).

Non Traceable

This field allows you to indicate if the bus bar is not to be included in tracing.

Shape

Use this text field to record the bus bar shape. The shape affects the size of the cross-sectional area as well as heating.

Loading

Use this field to indicate the device capacity delivered to the load area, in MVA.

Spacing

Use this field to indicate the distance between buses following minimum electrical clearance for various BILs.

Trace Weight

This field allows you to determine the bus bar status and other information that affects circuit connectivity.

Feeder ID 1 and 2

Use the first field to include the feeder manager identifier assigned to the feeder and devices that participate in a specific distribution circuit. Use the second ID field if the bus bar is supplied by a second feeder.

Feeder Info

This field allows you to include the feeder manager assigned phase information describing the phase of the circuit.
