Issue:
What is the minimum clearance required for I-line and I-line II busway?
Product Line:
Busway
Environment:
I-line and I-line II busway

Resolution:
Schneider Electric does not publish documents that define clearances between walls, runs and obstructions in general. The NEC states the busway joints must be accessible for maintenance.
