What is a busbar used for?

In electric power distribution, a busbar (also bus bar) is a metallic strip or bar, typically housed inside switchgear, panel boards, and busway enclosures for local high current power distribution.

What materials are used for insulators?

The range of insulating materials is wide, from bulky fiber materials such as glass fiber, rock and slag wool, cellulose and natural fibers, to rigid foam boards to smooth foils. Other less common materials, such as cement foam and phenolic foam, as well as verstone and perlite can also be used.

Know the following insulation materials:

Glass fiber

Mineral wool

Cellulose

Natural fiber

Polystyrene

Polyisocyanurate

Polyurethane

Stone and perlite

Urea formaldehyde foam

Cement foam

Phenolic foam

Insulation finish

Glass fiber

Glass fiber (or glass fiber) is composed of extremely fine glass fibers and is one of the most common insulating materials.

Glass fiber bulk insulation is made from molten glass that is spun or blown into fibers. Most manufacturers use 40% to 60% recycled glass content. In electrical industry applications (such as capacitors) or copper bar installation, insulating pillars such as insulators must be used. Learn more about where to insulate.
