Custom Manufactured Braided Copper Shunts/Jumpers
What is a Copper Shunt?
Copper Shunts, also known as flex braid, flex links, or simply as braids, are braided copper wire woven from many small copper wires.
Why do we use Copper Shunts?
Copper Shunts solve high-voltage connectivity problems created by vibration. Although typically more expensive than using copper bus bar, it returns the investment by cutting the potential cost of down-time, maintenance and energy loss created by loose electrical connections caused by vibration.
