Title: Experimental Investigation of Contact Resistance of Slotted and Perforated Bolted Busbar Connections
Keywords: Bolted busbar high power connectionsContact resistanceExperi

Abstract: The paper reported discusses how introducing a slotted hole shape or groups of small holes around the bolt holes in high power bolted busbar connections increases significantly the true contact area and therefore reduces contact resistance. The new designs, formally called S and G type are compared with the classical one of bolted busbar connections by measuring the contact resistance of representative connections. It has been estimated that the new cases lead to a considerable reduction of contact resistance and improvement of the reliability and the life of the connection.
