Abstract :
IN THE DESIGN of bus bars for generating stations and substations, particularly of the isolated-phase type, there is need for more complete information on the skin effect, at commercial frequencies, in large conductors of rectangular cross-section. The present paper describes a method of measurement and presents data that were obtained for conductors of various ratios of width to thickness.
