  • Abstract
    A low-impedance heavy-current conductor system made of extruded sections which are designed to take advantage of the inherent features that an extrusion offers in simplicity of assembly, ease of installation, and flexibility in usage is introduced for both power distribution and a-c crane collector applications. The manufacture of a prototype verified the mechanical features of the conductor assembly and tests confirmed the calculated impedance and short-circuit strength.
