BUSBAR PROTECTION
Busbar protection may simultaneously trip a number of bus segments or even an entire busbar of a substation and the fast elimination of busbar faults is critical to ensure that the transmission system

California Code of Regulations, Title 8, 2739.4. Grounding Connections.
For an ungrounded separately derived system, the equipment grounding conductor shall be connected to the grounding electrode conductor at, or ahead of, the system disconnecting means or overcurrent

Bus Protection Theory
For an internal fault, the busbar protection must identify the faulted bus segment, and trip the circuit breakers attached to that bus segment. This requires the busbar protection to use a dynamic bus

Bus Spacings in Metal-Enclosed Switchgear
When considering bus spacings, two dimensions are important. The first is clearance, or the distance through air between conductors of opposite polarity or between an energized conductor and ground.

California Electrical Code Grounding Requirements and Bonding
This single connection point, made by the main bonding jumper, establishes the electrical system''s reference to ground and allows fault current to return to the source and trip the breaker.
