Busbars for Philippines projects, made in India

Yes, and this is the standard export scenario rather than the exception. Send the drawing with hole positions, bend angles and tolerances, and the busbar gets sheared, punched and bent to match, then tinned or sleeved as specified, so it installs directly with no on-site fabrication needed.

Our mainstream export product is solid flat copper busbar, cut and formed to drawing, and that covers the large majority of switchgear, panel and substation requirements. Flexible laminated busbar, thin copper foils built for vibration-tolerant connections, is a specialised product. Tell us your specific requirement and we can confirm whether a solid busbar with a flexible jumper section meets the same need.

Copper carries roughly 1.6 times the current of aluminium for the same cross-section and holds up better through repeated jointing, which is why it's the default for compact panels, data centres and anywhere space is tight. Aluminium is lighter and cheaper per unit of conductivity, and it works well where space isn't constrained and joints are torqued and maintained properly. The catch: it needs larger cross-sections and more careful joint design to avoid the oxide-layer and creep problems aluminium connections are known for.

Mostly corrosion, the contact resistance at bolted joints stays stable over years. Current rating in still air is unchanged. In humid or polluted environments tinning preserves the joint torque-vs-resistance relationship, which protects against long-term heating drift.
