Eaton has extended its Mempower MP medium power busbar range with a new 800A rating.  This means that it is able to offer the 800A rating in either its air-insulated MP range (previously offered in 125A-630A ratings) or its 500-6300A Mempower XP low impedance range.  The full Mempower range is described in a new 38-page Product Guide.

Mempower MP is a versatile, cost-effective busbar trunking system used extensively in residential blocks, hotels, department stores, hospitals, offices and industrial installations.  It is often used for vertical risers and offers tap-off units every third of a metre.  These include switch disconnectors, fuses, fuse combination switches, moulded-case circuit-breakers or miniature circuit-breakers. 

The new 800A rating offers a competitively-priced option at this rating.  Short time withstand rating is 25kA for one second.   It is offered in four-bar and five-bar options.   The five-bar option provides an integral earth conductor which avoids the necessity to use the casing as an earth conductor.

Meanwhile Mempower XP is a low impedance system for higher power ratings (500-6,300A).  It has a 40kA short time withstand rating.  A ‘sandwich’ construction of conductors and solid insulation results in a compact, high-performance system with low heat loss.  The unique Mempower XP ‘velocity angle’ dispenses with the need for a separate 90° angle joint and the radial velocity can be specified where an edge angle is required between 0° and 90°.

“The new 800A MP rating enables us to offer a genuine choice between a competitively-priced air-insulated system at the top end of the medium-power range and a compact, high-performance system with a higher fault rating” says Steve Witham, Eaton’s Product Manager for busbar trunking.

The entire Mempower busbar trunking range, including the new 800A MP rating, is detailed in a new Product Guide that is available from Eaton or downloadable on www.memonline.com/publications.  This includes the 23-63A Lux lighting trunking range, 40-125A low power, 125-800A medium power and 500-6,300A XP low impedance busbar trunking systems.
