Simply join the segments, secure with bolts, and you're done: LDM busbar trunking systems arrive at the project site in pre-assembled segments. Contrary to cables, there's no need for complex cutting to length, stripping, insulating, and screwing into place. All the busbar needs is a support on the tower wall every 3.20 metres. Compare this to cable systems, where spacing must be calculated, with some intervals less than 50 cm. 

In addition, busbar elements can be pre-assembled and installed in tower segments that lie horizontally prior to final erection, thereby saving time and money. On site, all that's left to do is secure the connections between the tower segments during final erection using design verified single-bolt connections. The assembly work in all phases of installation is performed using a standard torque wrench. In short: Using the LDM system substantially reduces installation time.

Growing importance is being place on improving the energy efficiency of wind power. Manufacturers and operators of wind turbines are coming under pressure to design their units to be as low-loss as possible. With LDM system, Siemens has developed a system that minimises power losses and significantly improves efficiency. 

Over the total service life of a wind turbine, this translates into additional grid feed-in compensation for wind turbine operators. In addition to the quick return on investment, operators using the LDM busbar trunking system demonstrate their sense of responsibility for environmental issues – thanks to the environmentally friendly, halogen-free design, high energy efficiency, and high recycling rate.
