In complex industrial environments or those exposed to atmospheric agents, choosing the right degree of protection for electrical systems is a strategic choice . Busbar trunking with IP66 and IP68 protection guarantees continuity, safety, and durability . In this article, we explore what these codes mean, which applications require high protection, and why Graziadio’s Isolsbarra technology is the ideal solution for outdoor installations or in harsh environments.
The IP ( Ingress Protection ) degree of protection is a standard defined by the IEC 60529 standard , which indicates the level of protection of an electrical enclosure against the penetration of solid bodies and liquids.
It is made up of two numbers:
In electrical distribution systems, especially when installed outdoors or in harsh environments, the degree of protection is crucial.
Graziadio busbar trunking with Isolsbarra technology offers high protection (up to IP68), designed for:
Graziadio ‘s Isolsbarra solution stands out for its use of individually insulated conductors , a technical feature that directly contributes to achieving high levels of protection.
Graziadio busbar trunkings with IP66–68 protection are suitable for environments classified as “aggressive”.
Common environmental conditionsIn addition to protection from dust and liquids, Graziadio busbar trunking is designed to offer resistance to the spread of flame and, where required, fire resistance.
For these applications, the ducts can be integrated into an additional protective casing that increases their thermal and mechanical resistance.

How to Ensure Electrical Safety in Critical Environments with Intelligent, Scalable Systems
Operational continuity in a Data Centre depends on the quality of its electrical infrastructure. Discover why more and more designers choose Graziadio busbar ducts to ensure efficiency, reliability, and modularity.
In a world where data is the new capital, Data Centres are the beating heart of companies, institutions, and public infrastructures. But behind the computing power, cooling systems, and server rooms, there is often an unseen yet essential element: the electrical supply.
Oversized systems, complex or hard-to-maintain cabling are no longer sustainable. Today you need scalable, safe, and intelligent solutions capable of adapting to the pace and demands of the digital world.
That’s why organizations of all sizes, from large industrial groups to cloud service providers, rely on Graziadio to design future-ready, efficient electrical installations.
We live in a world where the amount of data generated every second is constantly increasing. Behind every click, cloud operation, banking transaction, or medical inquiry, there is a powerful, silent infrastructure: the Data Centre.
These facilities require a stable, continuous, and secure power supply. A single interruption can lead to data loss, downtime, and significant economic damage. Therefore, electrical system design is a strategic aspect, not just a technical detail.
In this context, Graziadio busbar ducts offer the ideal solution for those seeking modular, certified, reliable systems crafted specifically for the needs of modern Data Centres.
Data Centres are highly critical environments where power must be guaranteed 24/7, 365 days a year.
It is therefore essential to minimize risks such as:
An intelligent electrical system design relies on:
This is where busbar ducts come into play—as the true nervous system for power distribution in an orderly, scalable, and safe manner.
For years, electrical cables were the standard in installations. However, with increasing power density and control needs, their limitations are now clear.
Drawbacks of cables:
Advantages of busbar ducts:
Thus, busbar ducts are more suited to the dynamic architectures of Data Centers, which evolve and expand rapidly.
Graziadio & C. is a European benchmark in busbar duct manufacturing. The company offers three systems perfectly suited to Data Center needs:

In a constantly evolving sector such as the industrial one, energy efficiency and plant safety are absolute priorities. Electricity distribution plays a crucial role in ensuring operability and reliability, especially in high-intensity contexts such as production plants, data centres and large infrastructures. In this scenario, busbar trunking emerges as the most advanced technological solution to optimize energy transport, reducing waste, simplifying installation and ensuring exceptional durability over time.
But what makes busbar trunking so high-performing compared to traditional systems? In this article we will explore every detail, highlighting the advantages, structure and main fields of application.
Busbar trunking is a modular system designed to distribute electrical energy safely and efficiently.
Unlike traditional electrical wiring, it uses conductive bars enclosed in an insulating and protective casing.
This system allows for the transport of large amounts of current with reduced dimensions and maximum safety, making it ideal for industrial applications, strategic infrastructures, large commercial and civil buildings.
Busbar trunking consists of:
Depending on the needs, busbar trunking can have different characteristics:
In recent years, busbar trunking has become the preferred choice for industrial plants due to its numerous advantages:
Although cables are still used in many plants, in advanced industrial contexts the busbar trunking is establishing itself as the standard for a series of concrete reasons:
| Characteristic | Bus duct | Traditional cables |
| Safety | Very high (IP66–IP68) | Media (requires channelling) |
| Installation time | Fast, modular | Slower and more complex |
| Future expandability | Very easy (adding modules) | Complex (new wiring) |
| Energy efficiency | High (less dispersion) | Lower (cable losses) |
| Inspection and maintenance | Simple and fast | Difficult |
| Average implant lifespan | >30 years | 10–15 years |
Conclusion : Busbar trunking is safer, quicker to install, longer-lasting and more flexible than traditional wiring.
Thanks to their versatility and reliability, busbar trunking is used in:
