Canalis power distribution for our changing world

An important requirement for every modern building is a flexible electrical power distribution system which can evolve and change to reflect the changing needs of the building user. With traditional cable-based installations, however, flexibility is limited, and the cost of changes is high. That's one of the reasons why more and more specifiers are choosing electrical installations based on Canalis busbar trunking from Telemecanique.

Comprising pre-fabricated interlocking lengths of steel trunking, fitted with solid copper conductors, Canalis is quick to install and easy to modify. Supplied in straight lengths and corner pieces, complemented by flexible coupling sections, Canalis is simple to configure, whatever the site layout. Tap-off points at regular intervals along the trunking make power accessible wherever it is needed, now and in the future.

Canalis busbar trunking is available with ratings from 25A to 5,500A, making it suitable for every commercial and industrial application, from a supermarket lighting system to a ring main feeding heavy equipment in a manufacturing plant. The Canalis range from Telemecanique now also includes sandwich-construction busbar trunking. When used in rising mains, this eliminates the need for fire barriers where the trunking passes through building floor slabs.

Canalis offers many benefits for specifiers, electrical contractors, property developers and end users of commercial and industrial buildings, in particular

• reduced time for Canalis, compared with cable
• reduced installation time makes Canalis installations more competitive
• faster fitting means that installations are completed sooner
• Canalis installations are easy and inexpensive to modify and extend
• all-metal construction means better fire resistance than cable offers.

 Telemecanique supports Canalis busbar trunking users with a wide range of services, including feasibility studies, help in preparing tenders, and assistance with installation design and planning.
