Abstract :
WHEN ARRANGED PROPERLY, channel conductors possess certain desirable electrical and mechanical characteristics. Thus, they can be arranged so that the cross section of the resulting bus approaches Arnold´s equal inductance cross sections1 for which geometry the skin and proximity effects are reduced to a minimum. Channel conductors have considerable mechanical rigidity with which to withstand short-circuit forces. Their shape enables an open construction which simplifies ventilation and heat-dissipation problems.
