Blueprint of underground trench
OUR UNDERGROUND SYSTEM

CABLE BUS IN TRENCH

Power Bus Way cable bus can be installed underground, taking advantage of free-air ampacities.

We design and provide all details on the underground cable system, including trenching, ventilation, drainage and backfill requirements. We will take into account weight requirements for the trench design.

Key System Benefits

  • Trench provides increased protection from inclement weather
  • Underground cable bus systems allow feeders to be out of sight
  • Offers flexibility and adaptability in routing and layout
  • Facilitates future expansions, reconfigurations, or equipment rearrangements
  • Placement helps to prevent the spread of fire in the event of a fault
  • Noise reduction as the earth provides natural sound insulation
