Abstract :
SQUARE tubular bus bars are coming into use to an increasing extent, as they are economical and convenient for joining to insulators and to branch circuits. The reactance of bus-bar circuits is frequently of importance, in order to compute the voltage drop under normal conditions and the current under short-circuit conditions. The purpose of this paper is to present formulas and curves by which the reactance of square tubular bus bars may be determined.
