Abstract
An electrical bus assembly for an electrical enclosure includes a single branch circuit with a plurality of branch circuit buses. First electrical bus members include first ends electrically connected to corresponding branch circuit buses, and second ends electrically connected to a first circuit breaker. Second electrical bus members include first ends electrically connected to corresponding branch circuit buses, and second ends electrically connected to a second circuit breaker. The single branch circuit provides electrical power to the first and second circuit breakers. The first electrical bus members extend in a first lateral direction with respect to the branch circuit buses, and the second electrical bus members extend in a second, opposite lateral direction. The electrical bus assembly enables the first circuit breaker to be disposed horizontally adjacent to the second circuit breaker within a corresponding one of the cells of the electrical enclosure.
