Perhaps the most successful product Litelab has introduced in the last 20 years, BusRun has been adopted worldwide thanks to the following features: ■■ Electrical code variants for bus combined with its far greater current capacity greatly reduce installation cost with no compromise on your design. BusRun’s structural integrity allows for unique features when suspended or recessed. Litelab innovations have allowed BusRun to do double duty, including HVAC integration, supporting hanging objects, or becoming part of a ceiling structure allowing the designer much greater flexibility at much...

Because BusRun Busway is structurally selfsupporting,there’s no need for extra stabilizing elements—BusRun can hang independently from mounting points up to 10 feet apart. Not so with structurally flimsy track. Track requires more frequently spaced pendants and often ‘long’ runs are mounted to a sturdier element for support. Couple this with the number of extra costly feeds required for track by electrical codes. With BusRun you have a lighting system that is both clean and beautiful compared to standard track.

Because of its virtually seamless design, lengths of Surface-Mount BusRun meet neatly end-to-end, with all necessary hardware concealed internally. The long runs allowed for BusRun Busway by electrical codes result in fewer feeds for less clutter and significant savings. BusRun fitters recess completely into the BusRun Busway, rather than hanging below it, to further minimize visual distraction above the connected load.

Recessed BusRun fully integrates with the structural environment and blends seamlessly into the ceiling. Unlike recessed track housings, which install separately from the track, recessed BusRun has integrated flanges. And, because a single feed can power up to 260 feet of BusRun, it’s easier to provide fewer feed connections than would be necessary for track.
