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 first assembly coupled to the first busway section, a second assembly coupled to the second busway section, a plurality of conductors coupled to the first and second assemblies, a first movable brace coupled to the conductors, and a first brace locator coupled to the movable brace. The first and second assemblies move relative to each other between a collapsed position and an extended position. The first movable brace moves longitudinally along a length of the conductors. The first brace locator locates the first movable brace at a first position when the first assembly is in the extended position.
