Lorentz Force Calculation - Busbar 3

[Ninja_Newyork]

Hi All,

Someone help with when and where would the lorentz force calculation will be used on a busbar design.

Did anyone help me with a excel which i can make of use of it for my design purpose.

I would like to design a busbar system for current rating of 6000A short circuit current and the busbar is about 2m in length, cross section would 120X14mm thick.

Regards,
Ninja

For low voltage system see-for instance:

Here is another source of information for busbar system design:-

It is very interesting, indeed, desertfox.

Dear Desertfox,

The link you sent seems very interesting to me, but alas, no longer works. I have tried Archive.org and I have been able to download all of the chapters except for chapter 4, which is about short-circuit currents. Would you be so kind of posting it?

Thanks

Hi

The original link is dead for me also now but try this one it should be the same info
