HOUSING SECTIONS
Track Busway housing sections consist of an extruded Aluminium shell with “spring-pressure” type copper channel busbars contained in a full length halogen-free insulator mounted on the interior walls. The Aluminium extrusion acts as a 100% protective earth meeting IEC 60439-2. Each housing has a continuous access slot over its entire length for the insertion of turn-n-lock plug-in units. The plug-in opening features finger safety to IP2X. Housing configurations include 3 or 4-pole varieties 220…415V, optional isolated protective earth, and optional oversize (200%) neutral. The housing sections join together using Bus Connectors which fit into the channels of the adjoining section. An Installation Tool is used to force the blades into the busbar channels for a solid “spring-pressure” electrical connection.

CRITICAL POWER MONITORING M41/M43/M45/M47 DETAILS
The Starline Critical Power Monitor (CPM) is a distributed data acquisition system that enables current and power monitoring in busway systems. Each phase and neutral can be monitored independently. The CPM may be incorporated at a power feed point or directly into a plug-in unit. CURRENT TRANSFORMERS: Current transformers (CT’s) are supplied with the unit for installation onto the customer-supplied feeder cables. Sense leads from the CT’s connect to the Meter. METER MODULES: Each unit is calibrated for accuracy and is within 0.5% to meet ANSI Revenue Grade Standards. CPM– ENHANCED PACKAGE (M41/M43/M45/M47): Provides current and voltage inputs, monitoring current, voltage, power, power factor, frequency, apparent power, energy kWh, reactive power, neutral current, power min. and max. DISPLAY: The bright, 4.9” LCD reports basic power measurements and alarms. Display buttons provide configuration and direct control to the active display screen. Large format display is easily readable at a distance and wide viewing angle. COMMUNICATION: Ethernet and Modbus RTU ports are standard. Ethernet port provides an embedded web (HTTP) Interface & supports SNMP. Wi-Fi interface is optional, providing true versatility in the busway environment. ALARMS: When the defined alarm threshold is exceeded, a warning corresponding to that channel will turn ON and send an SNMP trap or an email to the user.
The Critical Power Monitor can be used to manage and maximize power distribution within a three phase power system. It can be employed as a component to help balance three phase power distribution between each phase. This increases efficiency by reducing the power factor and enables a user to fully analyze the power supplied to them.
POWER FEED MONITORING The CPM, incorporated in or near the power feed unit, provides load monitoring of the entire run of busway. These are used in conjunction with BMS systems to ensure busway is not overloaded as well as for general power management. Typically uses the CPM unit with display.
BRANCH CIRCUIT MONITORING The CPM, incorporated into a plug-in unit, monitors individual branch circuits. These units are used in conjunction with BMS system for power management and revenue purposes at the rack or circuit level. The CPM is capable of monitoring the entire unit or monitoring up to 4 individual devices, limited to 6 solid core Current Transformers (CTs).
BUILDING MANAGEMENT INTERFACE The Starline CPM is easily interfaced with BMS/BCIM systems. Many BMS/BCIM systems offer drivers for use with the Starline CPM. Contact your BMS/BCIM supplier or Starline Engineering for more information.

1. Can you have isolated ground?
Yes – On our 100A, 225A, 250A, 400A and 800A versions we can add a fifth copper bar rated at 100% capacity ground. The product types are GM100G, GM100NG, GM225G, GM250T5G, GM400T5G, GM400T5NG and GM800T5G.
2. How do you keep people from adding too many drops and overloading the circuit?
STARLINE Track Busway is no different from any other busway or panelboard. Anyone could mount 14 - 3 pole 100A circuit breakers in a 225A main panel if they wanted to. It is typical that the addition of a circuit to STARLINE is done by a qualified person who is familiar with the electrical system at the facility. They are expected to know the load on the bus through routine sampling over time. However, for those who want protection against this issue, we have developed a product called Bus Run Monitor. This product installs in the busway slot and includes 3 CTs that are installed in an end feed unit. Bus Run Monitor has an optional warning light, warning buzzer, or form C contacts to notify facility personnel of a current draw over the preset limit. The preset can be selected at 60-90% of the bus capacity. We believe this is a valid concern but in practice STARLINE Track Busway trips have been extremely rare.
3. How do you identify Phase L1, L2, or L3 device on the power drop boxes?
Each drop box carries a number label either L1, L2, or L3. The color code is determined by the customer’s request. If the customer has no preference, we typically ship 1/3 of the drop boxes wired to each individual phase.
4. How do you know what phase you are plugged into, and how do you allocate the drops so they are balanced across all three phases?
Answer 3 addresses the first half of this question. The answer to the second half is the same as any power distribution system. The electrical designer does the balancing.

To properly position busway at the minimum distance from wall, first select the largest plug-in unit to be used with the system. Using the provided table as a reference, find the distance (A) to position the busway from the wall. Position the busway and secure into place by tightening the BH-M10 hanger. If a plug-in unit does interfere with the wall, loosen all hanger bolts and move the Busway slightly to allow the plug-in unit to rotate into its final resting position. Ensure that the Busway sections are adjusted evenly to avoid any ‘kinking’ of Busway section joints.

Busway plug-in units face toward the conductor side (with the exception of the E9 or “S” enclosure). When installing the busway along a wall, care should be taken to make sure the busway conductor side faces away from the wall. NOTE: Be careful when ordering plug-in units with the busway conductors facing the wall, some plug-in units will have receptacles or breakers facing the wall. Consult the Product Selection Guide to ensure plug-in units selected will face the desired direction. Using MO bolts, mount the short leg of the mounting bracket to your wall/surface (Note: use appropriate bolt type for type of wall/surface. Ensure that the bracket is mounted securely enough to support the weight of the busway and any anticipated plug-in units (maximum allowable weight is 45kg between mounting supports). Space the brackets no more than 3 meters on center.

Application Briefs 225 AMP WITH 200% NEUTRAL
In certain applications, it is necessary to have a 200% rated neutral. Harmonic currents generated by electronic loads create a neutral current that may approach twice that of the phase currents. For 100 amp applications, STARLINE Track Busway offers a 100 Amp rated busway with a 200% rated neutral for this purpose. For 225 Amp applications, STARLINE Track Busway offers a power feed unit with a dual neutral connection for achieving a 225 Amp rated system with two, independent 225 Amp rated neutrals. In essence, the busway system provides 225 Amps per phase with 200% neutral capacity. Dual Neutral Center Feed Power feeds to a busway system are typically located at the end of the busway system runs, but may be located at any point on the run. A power feed at some intermediate point on the run is called a ‘Center Feed’. In many cases, the center feed is used so that the power tap to the busway can be located at a point convenient for the feeder cable home run. The dual neutral center feed is located at the center of a run and takes advantage of the distributed loads typical in busway applications. Figure 1 shows a traditional busway application in a data center. An end power feed provides power to a series of racks. Racks are evenly spaced, and the load is more or less evenly distributed along the length of the busway. The busway phase and neutral ratings are 225 Amps maximum.
Page 9.4 | www.StarlinePower.com
Application Briefs Figure 2 shows the same busway application with the dual neutral center feed. The dual neutral center feed electrically separates the neutral busbar into two circuits. The dual neutral circuits feed the busway in opposite directions. Figure 3 shows the electrical schematic for the dual neutral power feed unit. As can be seen, the neutral busbar is divided in two, and electrically isolated in the center, thereby provided two, independent neutral circuits. Separate terminal block connections are provided for each neutral feed. Three phase connections and an isolated ground (optional) connection are provided in the normal manner.
Page 9.5 | www.StarlinePower.com
Application Briefs 225 AMP WITH 200% NEUTRAL
Refer again to Figure 2. The system is capable of a total of 225 Amps per phase across the entire system length. More importantly, the system is capable of 225 Amps neutral current to the left of the power feed, and another 225 Amps neutral current to the right of the power feed. The end result is that with a single power feed point and therefore a single conduit home run, the busway system provides 225 Amps per phase and 450 Amps neutral capacity. Features
• Single power feed point • System rated for 225 Amps per phase • System rated for 450 Amps neutral current • Compatible with all STARLINE GM225 and GM100NG (isolated ground) plug-in units. • Cost –efficient double neutral system
Page 9.6 | www.StarlinePower.com
When ordering material it is important to understand the relationship between various components. Examples:
• GM250T5 uses the “T5” series of plug-in units. These plugs are interchangeable with GM400T5 plugs and compatible with other Starline T5series busway systems.
• • ALL COMPONENTS except Housing, Tee, Elbow Sections and Power Feeds are the same
and are interchangeable for GM250T5, GM250T5N (double neutral), GM250T5G and GM250T5NG Amp Systems. Substitute either “GM250T5” or GM250T5N” or “GM250T5G” or “GM250T5NG” for all Housing, Tee, Elbow Sections and Power Feed units.
• Each housing section requires a joint kit. Determine the total number of housing sections (regardless of length) as this becomes the number of Joint Kits (GMJK250T5 series) that will be needed.
o Add one extra Joint Kit for each Tee Section. o No need to add extra Joint Kits for Elbow Sections, as they are already part of
your housing count.
• If this is your first installation for either GM250T5, GM250T5N, GM250T5G or GM250T5NG systems, you will need to order Installation Tool GMT5IT.
• General support hardware rule to follow:
Total System Length + 0.10 (10%) = Support Hardware Qty 10 10 equal 3 m spacing and 10% extra is recommended for job site changes.
• Total Power Feeds and End Caps can be determined by counting the total number of
unconnected runs.
• Before specifying or ordering elbow or tee sections, it is important to understand polarity and the relationship to direction of outlets. Please refer to POLARITY CONCERNS for more detail.
COMPONENT RELATIONSHIP

Page 9.7 | www.StarlinePower.com
STARLINE utilizes a unique polarizing method to prevent mismatched components from being inadvertently connected to each other. The system is designed to prevent cross phasing during installation. It is particularly important to understand this design concept prior to ordering and/or installing some components. For example, if the face direction of a STARLINE plug-in unit is important in your installation consider that they will always face the conductor side. Certain plug-in units are ‘reversible’, designated by ‘R’, to face devices away from the conductor side.

Application Briefs NEUTRAL SIZING-400 AMP SYSTEMS
In certain applications, a customer may want the safeguard of a neutral conductor rated at more than 100% of the phase conductors. For 400 amp applications, STARLINE Track Busway offers a busway system with an oversized neutral busbar. The rating of the oversized neutral is 150% of a 400 Amp phase that is protected by an 80% rated circuit breaker. Thereby a neutral capacity of 480 Amps is achieved. This supplies the customer with 160 Amps of additional capacity on the neutral conductor compared to the maximum phase current. Why Oversized Neutral? There is a concern that with a 3-phase, 4-wire, wye-connected system with nonlinear loads, the neutral may need to carry more than the system’s rated full-load current. According to a IEC report on non-linear loads, in certain instances the neutral conductor current will exceed 100% but will rarely exceed 125% of the rated full-load current. This report can be seen in the 2005 IEC Handbook, IEC article 310.15 (B) 4. To cover the majority of applications, the GM400N system was tested and certified with a neutral rating of 150% of the phase current, with the assumption that the phases are protected with an 80% circuit breaker. 400 Amps (Phase) x 80% (System Protection Breaker) = 320 Amps (Full Load Phase Current) 320 Amps (Full Load Phase Current) x 150% (Oversized Neutral Rating) = 480 Amps (Full Load Neutral Current) The System GM400N and GM400NG System contain all of the features of the standard B400 and B400G systems plus an oversized neutral busbar. This busbar doubles the amount of copper for the neutral in a Busway section. Oversized neutral end feeds are supplied with a double lug for the neutral. The customer will be able to connect to the neutral with two 120 mm2 wires. All other connections have a single wire entry. The maximum voltage rating for the GM400N/GM400NG system is 277Y / 415 volts. The oversized neutral Busway system uses all of the same hardware, plug–in units and accessories as the standard GM400 system uses.
