2.3 Main busbar, horizontal
Tab. 2/7 lists the rating data for the two possibilities how to
position the main busbar – top or rear – (Fig. 2/4). Chapter
10 describes how ambient temperatures must be observed
in respect of the current carrying capacity.

When operating two systems per cubicle at the same time
(busbar position rear top and rear bottom),
a reduction factor has to be considered::
for ventilated boards: 0,94
for unventilated boards: 0,98
