Network Bus Products, a division of Methode Electronics Inc, is announcing publication of a design guide reference book for engineers seeking better ways to distribute electrical power within electronic and electromechanical products and systems.

This 20-page guide describes benefits of using laminated bus bar systems rather than conventional wiring harnesses. These benefits include better electrical performance, space savings, reduced system cost, and increased product quality.

The guide shows dozens of custom solutions, design formulas, details on insulation materials, frequently asked questions, and definitions of technical terminology. This information allows the designer to produce a preliminary rough bus bar design and to test for feasibility. Actual bus bar design can be performed by Network Bus' in-house Engineering Design Group. Not only can Network Bus create a production-ready design, it can produce prototypes and provide production quantities of tested, ready-to-install bus bar systems.
