Electrical power supply structures
The present disclosure provides an electrical power supply structure comprising a plurality of insulated pipes, each insulated pipe extending longitudinally and configured to carry high amperage electrical power, a barrier support plate comprising one or more openings for receiving the plurality of insulated pipes, the barrier support plate configured for mounting over a hole through a floor of a building, a first support structure extending longitudinally upward from an upper side of the barrier support plate, and a second support structure extending longitudinally downward from a lower side of the barrier support plate through the hole. Each of the first and second support structures comprises a longitudinally extending enclosure having a plurality of transversely extending conductor support members for supporting the plurality of insulated pipes, and the plurality of insulated pipes are grouped by phase.
Current/voltage sensor and universal tap-off box
A tap-off box includes a latch that automatically secures the tap-off box to a busway upon insertion of a mast into the busway. The latch is in the form of a single spring-loaded member that latches onto a rail as the masthead is pushed into the busway. A push button actuated camming member pushes the latch away from the rail to enable the masthead to be withdrawn from the busway. The push button and camming member are independent of the mechanism that extends and retracts the contacts while the masthead is inserted and latched into the busway. The tap-off box may also include non-contact current monitoring sensors with voltage sensing inserts that an auxiliary breaker switch in applications other than a tap-off box, and an infrared emitting faceplate that can be adapted for monitoring a variety of breakers from outside the tap-off box.
