Installation
Installing IP54, IP65 busway
IP54 and IP65 Busway should be installed as horizontal edgewise (Upright) or vertical installation (Fig
2.2/2.3). Horizontal flatwise (Lie) installation is not recommended for IP54 and IP65 Busway (Pls contact
GE if Busway have to be installed on site as horizontal flatwise. A protection cover required on part of or
whole length of Busway with additional cost).
Joint cover plate for IP54 and IP65 is different to IP40 and IP42 Busway. Pls make sure right one used.
A transparent PC cover need be used to clip on Joint clamp plate to protect joint bolts from water.
For IP65 busway, it is required to use silicone gel (CSL588) to seal the gap between Joint clamp plate and
housing grounding plate.
The busway protection level is only rated when installation completed and it installed properly. GE
recommends to set and tighten joints at the nominal length and sealing each joint according to the
installation proceeds. The contractor should consider the application environment and the need to take
suitable protection on the bus section before and under installation. Please come to local sales for
separate document of sealing procedure for more detail information.
