Ter-mate is launching a unique and original design for earth bonding that is simple to install, economically priced, flexible in application and fully tested for safety.
Busbar supports aid circuit breaker connection
Producing busbar systems which connect easily and conveniently to air circuit breakers supplied by any of the major manufacturers is now straightforward.
For all users, the ASTA Diamond Mark provides total assurance that Master Frame products have been proven by test to comply with all relevant safety standards.
For those involved in the production of type tested assemblies, the benefits are even greater as, when Master Frame is used in line with the instructions supplied, costly and time-consuming short-circuit tests on the main busbar assemblies are no longer needed.
Permission to use the Diamond Mark was granted to Ter-mate only after ASTA BEAB had closely scrutinised the company's products, its test procedures, and its quality assurance systems.
Taken into account were no fewer than 14 type-test certificates already issued by ASTA BEAB in relation to Master Frame, and Ter-mate's continuous registration of its quality approval systems for more than two decades.
Ter-mate's innovative Master Frame busbar system is available in four type-tested styles, all of which will, in future, be supplied, at no extra charge, with a Ter-mate certificate of compliance, endorsed with the Diamond Mark.
Products in the Master Frame range are available with current ratings from 400 to 4300A, and short-circuit ratings from 20 to 80kA for 1s, and up to 65kA for 3s.
All styles are available in a wide range of modular heights and lengths, with options available to suit most standard applications, including withdrawable equipment, and all are designed for fast, easy installation in the user's own enclosures.
Ter-mate is an expert in the design, manufacture and testing of busbar systems, terminals and associated products for use throughout the electrical industry.
With its own fabrication and moulding facilities, the company has total control over its products, allowing it to maintain the highest possible quality standards.
Ter-mate is quality approved by ASTA, and offers a wider range of ASTA-certified commercial busbar systems than any other company.
