its a type of conductor that carries electric power
Busbars are not necessarily rectangular. Those used in substation compounds are frequently tubular in construction.
If I'm interpreting the question accurately, a "line isolator" is an insulating standoff for transmission or distribution cable. A bus isolator is an insulating standoff for tubular or bar bus as is normally seen in a substation switching yard.
To obtain the amp of the copper bus bar, multiply the width of the bus bar by the thickness of the bus bar to obtain the current carrying capacity of the bus bar.
Ah, a tertiary bus in a substation is like a happy little connector that helps distribute power evenly. It's an extra busbar system that provides a backup or additional power supply to ensure everything runs smoothly. Just like adding a touch of color to a painting, the tertiary bus adds reliability and stability to the substation.
Yes, if possible, connect the grounds to the ground bus bar and the neutrals to the other side on the neutral bus bar. This is just in case you ever install a sub panel. It is not a violation of the NEC code to connect them to the same bus bar but IMO it is unprofessional and can cause problems later on.

The substation ring bus is a conducting bar, which can connect one or more incoming lines and no of out going lines (or) feeders. The ring bus is connected to the line through isolator, circuit breaker and other protective devices. Rajendran Arputharaj k M.E.(Power systems Engg.)

5-6x150 Cu. BUS BAR PER PHASE
Single bus is used in smaller, less important substations. A fault on the bus requires tripping of all lines into the bus. When higher redundancy is necessary, ring and breaker and 1/2 schemes are used. These are the three most common.
A arrangement of Equipment between two bus-bars. Example 1 and 1/3, 1 and half etc.
Its a switch
The term "bus bar" refers to a strip of bar of brass, aluminum, or copper. This strip of bar conducts electricity with a distribution and switch board.
Bus bar is a physical component that carries the current. AMP is unit of current. They can not be converted
