Abstract

The invention relates to a voltage source converter system, and includes a plane parallel bus bar assembly having conductor bars closely related for reducing induced voltage in the assembly. Each gap that is formed between adjacent conductor bars is completely filled by a polymer insulator which is formed for providing complete freedom of access to fully exposed external sides of the bus bar assembly. The invention also relates to a molded, single piece polymer insulator including an elongate rib member of continuous height and thickness, and elongate wing members angularly extended from each longitudinal periphery of the rib member.
