Selection guide
At around half the weight of traditional copper conductor based busbar trunking, Canalis KSR can be fitted in many installations by one person. Its lightness means it needs fewer mechanical fixings, making it even faster to install. Fast installation allows contractors to meet the extremely short deadlines that are becoming increasingly common in todays building market. Canalis KSR busbar sections are linked by joint kits bolted in place, complete with an expansion joint that ensures a secure, safe and easy-tomake connection. Silver-to-silver contacts provide excellent conductivity at all joints.
This simple connection method makes it easier to install the distribution system safely, first time. Canalis KSR is one of the safest rising main busbar trunking systems available. Interlocks on the tap-off units prevent live loads being connected or disconnected. The busbar sections are finger-safe to IP2X, even when no tap-off units are fitted. All of which means that tap-off units can be safely connected to a live system if this is unavoidable.
KSR rising main is a specific version of KSA busbar trunking for energy distribution to each floor of a multi-storey building. KSR retains all the construction principles of KSA trunking for horizontal distribution, in particular:
I
Aluminium conducting bars are equipped with bi-metal silver copper laminate saddles fitted at the points of contact in the joints and tap-off outlets The jointing block with spring-loaded contacts, locked by 1/4-turn fastening (this block, which also absorbs the expansion of the conductors, eliminates any mechanical stress at the fire barrier) Tap-off outlets with automatic closing shutters Degree of protection is IP54

1 fire barrier, placed at the level of passage through the floor slab, eliminating any risk of fire propagation from one floor to another via the trunking. The fire barrier, which has been tested by the laboratory of the University of Gand (Belgium) conforms to the requirements of standard ISO834. According to report 7296, the following results were obtained:
I I I
Thermal insulation : 120 minutes Flame resistance : 120 minutes Stability : 120 minutes
A casing of galvanised sheet steel which is crimped closed This casing, shaped and ribbed by rolling, provides excellent resistance to bending and twisting. Two casing widths cover the whole range:
I I
75mm wide sheet steel with RAL 7032 grey finish for 400A rating 113mm wide sheet steel with RAL 7032 grey finish for 630 and 800A ratings
Aluminium fitted with bi-metal silver-plated copper/aluminium laminate riders electrically welded to junctions and tap-off positions for 400 to 800A ratings. The lamination is a patented process by which the copper and aluminium molecules are fused together under extreme pressure

Fibreglass reinforced polyester isolators at 250mm intervals. These hold the conductors securely within the casing A special protected earth (PE) conductor of the same type as the live conductors with a cross-section 1/2 of the phase cross-section. It is connected to the casing at each junction Tap-off outlets on the front face of the trunking at 500mm intervals. They are connected to the isolators to form a block, holding the bars. They have a shuttered outlet which is opened and closed automatically when connectors or tap-off units are plugged in, or removed A mechanical and electrical jointing device Electrical connection is via a block with spring and silver graphite contacts. This block absorbs the differential conductor/casing expansion of each length equally. It simultaneously connects all the live conductors, ensures continuity of the protective earth conductor and its connection with the casing. The electrical connection is made by a 1/4 screw turn for each conductor
To enable to pass from floor to floor of a multi-story building. Fire resistance of the barriers is 2 hours (A120) conforming to ISO834

I Supply cable
The feed can be from one end (end feed) or along a run (centre feed). They can be connected by aluminium or copper cables fitted with suitable cable lugs. There is an undrilled aluminium gland plate which will accept cable glands. This plate can be replaced by a plate fitted with 1-3 cable clamps depending on the rating (to be ordered separately)
For bottom or top connection Through run type (1 cable feeds the right and left sections) It is mounted along the run, between 2 straight lengths
Fitted with splayed bars and a mounting plate. It is used for connection to a distribution panel. It can be mounted at either end of a component
I KV-KSR connector
The KV-KSR connector is fitted with a KV end length at one end and a KSA end length at the other. Due to its flexible design, it ensures direct connection from a feed run to a distribution run and reduces any risk caused by alignment faults
End cover
The end cover protects and isolates the ends of the conductors. It is mounted on the last length. Two products cover the entire KSR range: 400 and 800A.

Accessories
To achieve the degree of protection, IP54, the following accessories are fitted to the riser.
Each tap-off outlet not being used, should be fitted with a sealed tap-off blanking plate Each junction between components should be fitted with a jointing sleeve to maintain the IP54 projection Various devices, for lead sealing in particular, can be used to complete the equipment of the KSR rising main.
