Abstract
A motor control center (MCC) for an industrial automation system, includes an enclosure housing comprising a plurality of sections, including a first section having one or more buckets, including a first bucket, a first bus bar, a second bus bar, and a third bus bar extending horizontally across the first section along a back plane of the enclosure housing, and a first electrical component, configured to perform one or more functions of the MCC, disposed within the first bucket of the first section. The first electrical component is directly electrically coupled to the first set of bus bars such that the first electrical component draws a first phase of power from the first bus bar, a second phase of power from the second bus bar, and a third phase of power from the third bus bar.
