Canalis rising main busbar trunking
cuts installation costs in multi-storey buildings
The Canalis KSR rising main busbar trunking system launched by
Telemecanique enables electrical distribution to be rapidly installed
in multi-storey buildings of all types, including office blocks, hotels,
hospitals and car parks. Canalis KSR improves safety, cuts
installation time and reduces the overall cost of installing
distribution systems.

Riser distribution lengths

A The KSR length is equal to the height between 2 floors (floor-to-floor), ranging from
2900 to 4840mm (standard length and made to measure fire barrier components).
They are equipped with:
3 or 4 tap-off outlets, always positioned at the same height with respect to the
centre line of the lower floor slab
1 fire barrier, placed at the level of passage through the floor slab, eliminating
any risk of fire propagation from one floor to another via the trunking. The fire
2 barrier, which has been tested by the laboratory of the University of Gand
(Belgium) conforms to the requirements of standard ISO834. According to
report 7296, the following results were obtained:
Thermal insulation : 120 minutes
Flame resistance : 120 minutes
Stability : 120 minutes
Straight distribution lengths

Straight lengths are designed to carry current and feed loads with low or medium
power. The straight lengths form the structure of the run.
They comprise:
1 A casing of galvanised sheet steel which is crimped closed
This casing, shaped and ribbed by rolling, provides excellent resistance to
3
bending and twisting. Two casing widths cover the whole range:
4
75mm wide sheet steel with RAL 7032 grey finish for 400A rating
113mm wide sheet steel with RAL 7032 grey finish for 630 and 800A
ratings
2 4 live conductors of the same cross-section:
5
Aluminium fitted with bi-metal silver-plated copper/aluminium laminate
riders electrically welded to junctions and tap-off positions for 400 to 800A
ratings. The lamination is a patented process by which the copper and
aluminium molecules are fused together under extreme pressure
6
3 Fibreglass reinforced polyester isolators at 250mm intervals.
These hold the conductors securely within the casing
4 A special protected earth (PE) conductor of the same type as the live
conductors with a cross-section 1/2 of the phase cross-section. It is
connected to the casing at each junction
5 Tap-off outlets on the front face of the trunking at 500mm intervals.
They are connected to the isolators to form a block, holding the bars.
They have a shuttered outlet which is opened and closed automatically
when connectors or tap-off units are plugged in, or removed
6 A mechanical and electrical jointing device Electrical connection is via a
block with spring and silver graphite contacts. This block absorbs the
differential conductor/casing expansion of each length equally.
It simultaneously connects all the live conductors, ensures continuity of the
protective earth conductor and its connection with the casing.
The electrical connection is made by a 1/4 screw turn for each conductor

Design guide
Selection of IP degree of protection

External influences are taken into consideration when siting the installation.
The IP54 degree of protection of Canalis KSR means that it is suitable for
installation in most industrial and commercial locations.
Especially for locations or sites which may be subject to water splashes in any
direction, the degree of protection is achieved by installing sealed tap-off blanking
plates and sealed jointing sleeves. (See page 20).
Changing levels in horizontal distribution

The trunking is mounted vertically, the degree of protection at a junction is
IP54. This is achieved by fitting a standard sealed jointing sleeve at each junction.
Tap-off units
The complete range of tap-off units for KSR are IP54 dust and damp proof range,
