Abstract
A bus assembly for switchgear includes a pair of elongated members each of an L-shaped cross section with a lateral side and a transverse side integral with the lateral side. The elongated members are positioned in a juxtaposed spaced apart relationship forming a hollow rectangular tube wherein the lateral sides are generally parallel to each other and the transverse sides are generally parallel to each other. Support members connected to the lateral sides may be U-shaped components engaging lateral exterior sides of the elongated members and may be connected to an element having flange which extends from the bases of the U-shaped components for connection to a horizontal bus bar. A connecting device may be provided with separated extending legs adapted for attachment to components of a laminated horizontal bus member.
