Abstract
A busway system is provided. The busway system includes a first electrical busway section, a second electrical busway section, and a busway joint. The first and second electrical busway sections are disposed longitudinally offset from each other. The busway joint couples the first and second busway sections. The busway joint includes a plurality of busbars, a plurality of splice plates coupled to the busbars, and a vise brace surrounding the busbars and the splice plates. The splice plates and the busbars electrically couple the first and second electrical busway sections. The vise brace includes a clamp screw to selectively provide a compressive force to the busbars and the splice plates.
