Metal-enclosed LV switchgear is a power distribution product designed to safely, efficiently and reliably supply electric power. Please contact Logstrup for more information about LV switchgear.
What are switchgear panels?
Switchgear does in general cover a wide range of components within a power system. These components are switches, circuit breakers, fuses, isolators, transformers, disconnectors as well as control centres.
To make it an even safer solution the switchgear is enclosed in special manufactured cabinets. These cabinets are designed as panels that give the user a great overview of the electrical distribution. Through the overview it becomes easier to troubleshoot any electrical inconsistencies that may occur. The troubleshooting features such as error messages through the many lights on the panel makes it possible to get back on the right track faster.
What is low voltage switchgear?
Low voltage switchgear is defined by switchgear that supplies up to 120 volts and current up to 6.000 amps. LV electrical switchgear consists of a centralized establishment of circuit breakers, fuses and circuit protection devices (also known as switches). With all of this in place the function is to serve as protection, control and isolation of the electrical distribution equipment.
What is lv (low voltage) and mv (medium voltage) switchgear?
LV (low voltage) – LV stands for low voltage and therefore is defined by switchgear which supplies up to 120 volts and current up to 6000 amps. Low voltage switchgear components by logstrup are highly modular which enables use across different brands.

Frequently asked questions about Logstrup busbars
In the following section you will find information about busbars.
What is a busbar?
A busbar used for the distribution of electricity refers to the copper bar that leads the electrical current through a switchboard. Busbars are therefore essential components in the distribution of electrical current. If you need an electrical busbar or any other components for a larger scale setup please contact Logstrup and we will guide you through our solutions.
What is the function of a busbar in an electrical setup?
A busbar is an electrical power distributor in an electrical switchboard. A busbar is most commonly a metallic strip or bar. Busbars are often used in local high current power distribution setups. If you are in need of any help with power distribution components then we are here to help. Please contact Logstrup regarding any questions you may have about electrical distribution components.
What is a copper busbar?
The busbar is produced in a variety of shapes and materials. The busbar can be a flat strip, solid bars and rods and is typically composed from copper, brass or aluminium. If you need help to determine the best materials for your use, please contact Logstrup. We will help you in determining the most optimal solution for your electrical needs.
What is a busbar system?
We always recommend a busbar when distributing electrical power using a switchboard. The busbar can be rods, flat strip or a solid bar. There are many possibilities and the requirements are easily met through a dialogue with our technicians.
The high quality busbar distributes the electrical power in the switchboard. The material composition and sectional size of the busbar determines the maximal electrical current that the busbar is able to carry.
What is a busbar connection?
A busbar consists of additional parts. By combining additional safety parts to the busbar we can ensure safe distribution of electrical power. For the electrical power to move from one part to another part we need to use a busbar connection. To summarize the busbar connection is where one part of the busbar is connected to another relevant part.
What is a busbar trunking?
A reliable busbar trunking system is distributing the electrical power using the busbar with suitable enclosures and protection to prevent damage to the cabels. Logstrup produces reliable busbar trunking systems and helps customers get the most out of their electrical solutions.
Do busbar systems vary in quality?

Does a flexible busbar vary from a copper busbar?
A flexible busbar is often produced from copper and aluminium and therefore does not vary from the copper busbar. When distributing electrical power the switchboard needs a busbar to function. The busbar can be rods, flat strip or solid bar.
What is the functionality of flexible busbars?
Flexible busbars have several thin layers of copper or aluminium that are designed to distribute electrical power safely to an AC or DC system.
What is the functionality of a DC busbars?
DC current is defined as the power only floats one direction. DC furthermore stands for direct current in contrast to AC current which means the power periodically reverses direction and stands for alternative current.
