Bus Plug (UL)

Bus plugs are used to tap power from compatible LS Busway systems and distribute it to downstream equipment where power is needed. They support flexible load placement, easier expansion, and more organized power distribution across commercial, industrial, and data center environments.

By allowing power to be accessed along the busway run, bus plugs help project teams adapt to equipment changes without redesigning the entire distribution path. Available configurations depend on the busway system, current rating, protection requirements, and project application.

UL Listed Bus Plug for LS Busway Systems

LS Busway offers high-quality bus plugs available in fusible and non-fusible configurations. A bus plug is a device that connects to a busway power distribution system to provide a localized connection point for feeding equipment, machinery, or downstream panels. Bus plugs typically include branch-circuit protection, most commonly provided by either a circuit breaker or fuses, depending on the application and protection preference. LS Busway offers bus plugs in two configurations: an MCCB (Molded Case Circuit Breaker) bus plug and a fusible disconnect bus plug. Each LS bus plug ensures safe, modular power distribution with UL certification and easy installation.
