Vass Busways give retail centres a competitive advantage

To run a shopping centre or retail precinct – and keep tenants and visitors happy – you need reliable, adaptable and cost-effective electrical power distribution.

The Vass S-Series ELECTROBAR Busway System gives you and your store owner’s big benefits over cable and conduit systems that can lead to ongoing expenses, problems and downtime.

Install and change faster

  • Your complete Busway Systems run can be installed overhead or underfloor in 30 – 40% less time than a standard cable design.
  • No messy, confusing cables around the shopping centre or stores means repairs, upgrades and adding circuits are fast, simple and cheap.
  • Far less, if any, disruption to other tenants and customers when upgrading/modifying a tenant.

Save money, time and space to boost ROI

  • No distribution boards taking up room in the shopping centre so you save floor space and money.
  • If one area requires work, you don’t need to switch off power to the entire shopping centre.
  • Maintenance and upgrades can be carried out at any time without disruptions.
  • Previously used Take Off Boxes are not discarded, they become an asset that can be continually re-used time and time again.
  • You can always start with a few lengths of Busway and add more as required or with extra cashflow.
  • Keep track of electricity use and gauge future power needs with Power and Energy meters.

Electrical power made easy and flexible

  • Staff can change and move power source Take-Off-Boxes in the ceiling space without affecting other tenants, the retail centre or other shoppers – or calling in the electrician.
  • No need to chase and replace/add cables, or lift roofing tiles and create damage or mess.
  • Plug-in outlets every 150mm mean you can move or add electrical equipment, displays, fridges, etc anywhere without installing extra power points.
  • Single and three phase power is available at every Plug-In point along the Busway.

It’s a business asset

  • If you relocate any of your tenancies, the Busway system can come with you. So you avoid expensive cabling installations at your new premises.
  • As a landlord, you can reconfigure the entire retail precinct with minimal cost, time and effort for an existing or new client.

Your staff and tenants are safer

  • Cutting down cabling use reduces risks and shows you are meeting OH&S requirements.
  • Busway runs protect power against water and mechanical damage that often happens to exposed cables and terminations.
  • Earth leakage is supplied at point of use (Take Off Box) providing unprecedented safety to users.

It’s environmentally better

  • Far lower noise emissions, distortion and harmonics than cables
  • More efficient due to better air circulation and less overheating, dust and dirt build up
  • No PVC or environmentally harmful products used and up to 25% less copper.
