Product Specifications

Technical details and manufacturing context for Copper Busbar

Definition
Copper busbars are rectangular or round cross-section conductors that distribute electrical power efficiently within switchboards, panel boards, busway systems, and industrial control equipment. They are specified by material grade (e.g., C11000, C10100), dimensions (width, thickness, length), and electrical conductivity. Grades differ in purity and conductivity, with oxygen-free copper (C10100) offering higher conductivity and ductility for demanding applications. Surface treatments like tin plating or silver plating enhance corrosion resistance and contact performance.

This directory entry covers copper busbars as components for electrical distribution. The listed parameters include material grades C11000 (ETP copper) and C10100 (OFHC copper), with C10200 also referenced. Standard dimensions range from 20–200 mm in width, 3–20 mm in thickness, and 1000–6000 mm in length, per GB/T 5585.1. Electrical conductivity is ≥100% IACS for C11000 and ≥101% IACS for C10100. Mechanical properties vary with temper: tensile strength 200–280 MPa, elongation ≥30% (soft temper), and hardness 65–110 HB. Dimensional tolerances are ±0.5 mm for width up to 100 mm and ±0.2 mm for thickness up to 10 mm. Edge radius is 0.5–2.0 mm to reduce corona discharge. Surface finishes include bare, tin-plated, or silver-plated. Maximum operating temperature is 90–105°C. Minimum bending radius is 2× thickness for edgewise bending. Flatness deviation is ≤3 mm/m. Test methods follow GB/T 3048.2.

Relevant standards include GB/T 5585.1, GB/T 5231, ASTM B187, and EN 13601. These serve as procurement references; actual compliance must be verified with the manufacturer. For any application, confirm model-specific values and standards with the legal manufacturer or supplier.
Working Principle
Copper busbars operate on the principle of low electrical resistance, allowing high currents to flow with minimal power loss and heat generation. The large cross-sectional area and high conductivity of copper ensure efficient current carrying capacity. Proper sizing and surface finish reduce contact resistance at joints, preventing overheating and ensuring reliable electrical connections.
