TIRESCA® contains the same protection tube as fully insulated DURESCA® busbars therefore it can be used for indoor as well as for outdoor services.
The problem of animals and branches penetrating in substations is globally known. That's where MGC provides the right solution with its TIRESCA®program.
The conductor is made of a cylindrical aluminum alloy type EN AW-6101B T7, or of an electrolytic copper E Cu ETP H. The direct attached TIRESCA®insulation consists of a vacuum cast epoxy resin.
On the whole length of the busbar, the insulation is covered with a corrugated polyamide protection tube.
This tube provides an effective barrier against moisture ingress, a good protection against shocks and is UV radiation resistant (tested according to ASTM D 2565).
Applications
The TIRESCA®busbars, type TEL, are fully insulated within the range up to 3,6 kV.
The TIRESCA®busbars, type TE, are partially insulated and designed for MV applications in indoor or outdoor switchyards.
Testing / Quality assurance
Each individual busbar is being tested according to an electrical routine test in our factory.
