This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- The materials used for electrical substation bus
- The different types of rigid bus
- The proper connections for the various types of bus
- How to design a rigid bus
- How to calculate bus deflections
- How to design a strain bus
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 20 questions. CPD credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
