ABSTRACT:
A method of making a surge protection system for use on sectionalized electrical busway distribution system housings. The surge protection system includes a number of surge clamps; each cut to a particular length from an extruded rawstock. The extruded rawstock is of a length easily manipulated by one person. The extruded rawstock defines at least one generally flat longitudinal surface and a passage extending along its longitudinal axis. When each surge clamp is installed the generally flat longitudinal surface engages a generally flat surface of a top or bottom of the busway housing. Each end of the surge clamp engages one of two generally parallel sides of the busway housing. Apertures are defined in the sides at the point of engagement with the surge clamp ends. Fastening devices such a screw pass through the apertures and into the passage defined by the surge clamps thus providing a means for attaching the surge clamp to the busway housing.
