I know IPS aluminum bus and current rating with Sch.40 and Sch.80 bus as per IEEE-605.
However, recently I cam across acronym "EHIPS" and it was giving about 10% ampacity than IPS tubular bus.
I am not sure what EHIPS stand for and what other specification I should tell fabricator when...
Hi everyone,
Typically for the substation control room, where I need to install two separate battery systems, we used to put in a separate room. Recently, I have a few situations where both battery systems need to install the same room. Each battery system is about 1300Ah Lead-acid battery and...
Hi I have a substation where the control house is about 100ft from the switchyard but within the overall fence. The entrance for the control house is at 5ft elevation from the ground. we have installed a pre-cast concrete staircase. And has recently added a metal handrail. The question is, do I...
What X/R ratio should I consider for Bus Design using IEEE Std 605?
for grounding study, I typically enter X/R=20 in CDEGS software. However, for bus calculation, can I consider X/R=10?
Why cannot medium voltage power cable (5kV-35kV) run into concrete trench? I guess safety issue, de-rating of cable ampacity, .etc? What's thought , direction here?
