I - Buildings (industial, offices, healthcare,
data centers …) : what are the needs ?
End-users : flexible, evolutive, safe and environment
friendly electrical distribution, without production
downtime
Investors : buildings easy to rent. The installation is
upgradeable and can be adapted by the tenant
Electrical consultant : easy to study and specificy in
complete confidence (safety, standards compliance,
…)
Contractors : productivity (worksite times halved)

Slide 4
The electrical distribution systems
Centralised distribution:
• Applications: continuous process:
– Cement works, petrochemistry, iron and steel, oil and gas
• Advantages:
– Continuity of supply
– Mixed electrical distribution and control-monitoring
– Supervision
Decentralized distribution:
• Applications: manufacturing industries:
– mechanical, textiles, timber, plastics, electronics,…..
• Advantages:
– Study without detailed knowledge of the installation
– Live upgradeability without operating downtime
– Quickly operational (reduced worksite time)
– Economic according to number of loads

Canalis busway / Cable
Busway
Cable
Distributes
electrical current
via conductors
carried within
prefabricated
lengths of steel
trunking.
Distributes
electrical current
via insulated
conductors :
- on cable tray
- within conduits
Power accessed
via tap-off points
built-in to the
trunking.
Power accessed
when
conductors are
connected to
connection box.
Power
distributed from
source to load

Power distribution using Canalis:
Advantages of the Canalis Busway solution
Simple to design:
- the installation
can be designed
independently
to the distribution
of power and
the positioning
of loads
Power available
at all points
of the installation:
- the Busways
distribute all the
supply’s power
- distribution
to all floors
Installation time
halved:
- prefabricated
components that
can be simply and
quickly connected
together
- less fixing points
More competitive
than cables and
upgradeable

Slide 19
Power distribution using Canalis:
Advantages of the Canalis Busway solution
Installation
- loads can be
easily added,
moved or
replaced.
Continuity of
service:
- rapid live
connection and
disconnection of
loads, avoiding
the need for a
shutdown.
Modifiable layout:
- production line
layouts can be
easily changed.
More competitive
than cables and
upgradeable

Reliability of Canalis system is ensured
thanks to prefabrication and factory tests
Canalis system units are designed with
Schneider Electric equipment
Products are secured by type-testing
(Compliance with IEC 60439-2 )
100% of live elements are routine tested before
release from the factory
The declared performances are irrespective of
the implementation

Slide 25
Dangers of PVC in the event of fire
The combustion of PVC generates important volumes
of smoke which have:
• Effects on humans:
– Smoke opacity:
– Panic risks
– Difficulty of rescuers intervention
– Smoke toxicity:
– Hydrochloric gaz : danger of death
– Carbon monoxide : asphyxiation
100m² of offices
= 200 kg of cables
= 20 kg of PVC
44 000 m3 of smoke
7,5 m3 of HCI
3,7 kg of corroded steel
• Effects on materials:
– Corrosion
– Hydrochloric gaz = acid

Slide 26
Canalis has a long lifecycle and can be
easily recycled
Canalis is designed for a long service life and
can easily be dismantled, cleaned and reused
Old circuits cables become
a waste in 95% of cases
All components of our products are stamped to
show their material to make recycling easier
All materials used in our packing can be
recycled
