"Feeders" are conductors which carry electric power from the service equipment (or generator switchboard) to the overcurrent devices for groups of branch circuits or load centers supplying various loads.

What is double busbar arrangement?

Double bus bar is related to power control center (PCC). PCC is the main LT power distribution in any industrial establishment or large residential complex too. It basically an electrical panel with required number of incomer feeders and outgoing feeders. Power source like state power or captive power provide the incomers and outgoing feeders cater to the down stream power panels for further distribution( to MCC). Any PCC has one or more incomer and one or more outgoing feeder and bus isolators depending on the requirement. This PCC needs to have a bus bar to which the incomer gets connected and feeds the power to the bus and the outgoing feeders are connected to the bus bar to deliver the power down stream. This bus bar can be single bus bar system or double bus bar system. In a double bus bar system the two different power sources are connected to two different bus. Say one bus is for DG set power another bus is for SEB power. Both the buses can be charged simultaneously and can feed any outgoing feeders. The out going feeder have flexibility of getting the power either of the buses, but not simultaneously from both the buses. Double bus bar is more expensive compared to single bus bar system but more flexible, reliable.


What is one and half breaker system in electrical lines?

One and half breaker system is an improvement on the double breaker system to effect saving in the number of circuit breakers. For every 2 circuits, 1 spare breaker is provided: Two feeders are fed from two buses via their associated circuit breakers and these two feeders are coupled by a third circuit breaker which is called tie breaker. During failure of any of the two feeder breakers, the power is fed via the breaker of the second feeder and main breaker (tie breaker).

What is the meaning of feeder in electrical distribution systems?

Feeders are conductors which connect the consumers with the sub-station. Tapings to feed current to the consumers are NOT taken from the feeders. Therefore, its current loading remains the same along its entire length. Instead, Tapings to each consumers are taken from the DISTRIBUTORS, whose current loading varies along its length.
