Busway Solutions Introduces New Tap-Off Box

Press Release (ePRNews.com) - MINNETONKA, Minn. - Feb 23, 2017 - PDU Cables is happy to announce it has undertaken exclusive distribution of Busway Solutions tap-off boxes.  Busway Solutions has designed a safer and superior tap-off box to the standard OEM plug-in’s offered for Starline’s T5 series busway track system.  Fully compatible with any of the 250, 400, 800 and 1200 amp T5 series systems.

Tap-off box masts have always been a common culprit in busway track system failures.  The Busway Solutions product improvement redesign resolved these and other manufacturing weaknesses resulting in a tap-off box that delivers a more robust, safe and secure fault free load delivery.

The re-engineered plug mast with larger paddle surface area, has been designed for increased safety, superior performance and easier installation.  The internal conductors have been upgraded to #8 AWG on all boxes, with a #6 AWG wiring option for high density and multi-circuit applications.

Better connections decrease resistance which lowers the conductor temps and reduces the risk of shorts, faults, failure, and outages. While visually you’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference between the Busway Solutions tap-off boxes from other tap-off boxes, significant improvements in design and quality of materials have resulted in a patented, ETL approved tap-off box that sets a new industry standard for excellence.

Each Busway Solutions tap-off box comes standard with two mounting taps for securer attachment along with the patented inhibitor (mounting alignment bracket) to assure proper installation and de-installation.

Certified compliant by ETL to UL 857, and offered with a limited two-year warranty, Busway Solutions tap-off boxes are custom built to each application and offer utility grade metering as a factory direct add-on option.
