Introduction
Lectro has manufactured and installed hundreds of thousands of meters of busducts for large and small projects since
1975, both for the domestic market and for exports around the globe.
The production takes place in a state of the art facility, using latest generation precision techniques including CNC,
automation systems and robotics. Lectro products have been type tested by DEKRA laboratories of the Netherlands.
Lectro busduct systems contain high quality components and are trusted for their high safety factor and long life.
Lectro newest range, The «series LSB II» busduct provide currents from 300A to 6400A.
We pride ourselves in delivering systems which exceed the expectation of our customers, both in terms of quality and in
the level of customer service we provide.

In addition to these fittings, Lectro offers a space saving corner joint elbow. This elbow has the same construction of
Lectro Joints in the form of elbow. Due to its compact design, the corner joint allow optimum utilization of space.
Edgewise: With a minimum leg length of 13 cm for an edgewise elbow, the corner joint elbow can solve any serious
path problems and helps to achieve optimum layout with minimal space requirements.

Accessories - Transformer Connection
The transformer connection is equipped with the necessary flexible joints and is totally enclosed in an IP43 box that is
uniquely provided by Lectrobar. The box is equipped with a Plexi Glass door to allow the check of the presence of an oil
leak without de-energizing the system. The flexible connection is used to allow for busduct expansion and contraction
on the low voltage spades.

Transformer & Swichboard Flanges
Both Lectro feeder and plug-in busduct can be connected on both sides of transformer and switchboard by a coordinated
system in simple and easy way which saves 20% of switchboard size. Also, it guarantees safe connection in minimum
installation time. Lectro busduct enters the switchboard or leaves the transformer by special attachment which is tailored
according to the dimension and design of both transformer and switchboard. Cut out dimensions and drilling plans are
provided with the customer drawings. For proper coordination between busduct and other equipment, detailed drawings
including orientation, room plan and height, distance between transformer bushing, transformer and switchboard
dimensions should be given. Lectro design and planning group will prepare all necessary drawings and coordination.

Protected Reducers
Reducer boxes with circuit breakers or fuses are used
for protection and as a disconnecting means.
Expansion Coupling
Lectro busduct is designed to expand as a load is applied

Accessories
End Closure
End closures terminate a busduct run and can be used to
close right or left ends. It is constructed from thick
Fiberglass sheets laid between the busduct bars.
Vertical Hangers
A spring suspension type is used for vertical runs. This
hanger equalizes the weight of vertically mounted
busduct along all supports. These hangers compensate
for expansion and contraction of the busduct . At least, one
vertical hanger must be used for each floor.
Feed Box
Feed units are used to supply power to the busduct. The
box is made from sheet steel containing either connection
strip, circuit breaker or fuses. However, it is
recommended to feed busducts over 1600A directly from
the distribution panel. The minimum length of the feed
unit depends on the size of cables entering the box, but
normally it is greater than 80cm.
23
Tap-offs
An ON-OFF handle mounted on tap-off to operate the
breaker without opening the cover.
The tap-off boxes are made from sheet steel painted with
electrostatic paint or galvanized. Tap-off with breakers have
the following precautions to ensure safe operation:
To ensure that the tap-off plugs are seated onto the busduct,
the box is equipped with a clamping mechanism.
This mechanism will draw the unit tight on to the busduct
housing as the installer tightens the clamps. The contact
resistance between plug pins and the tinned busbars is
constant even after years of operation due to the high contact
pressure.
Bolted On
Bolt-on tap-offs are used as power take-off up to 1600 A. When the required current is higher than the capacity of the
plug-in, tap-off unit bolts directly to the contact surfaces of the busbar joint. This unit can carry either a circuit breaker
or fuses.
