    BS 2898:1970 Specification for wrought aluminium and aluminium alloys for electrical purposes.

    BS 159:1992 Specification for high-voltage busbars and busbar connections

    You'll have to double check and make sure the specs in these standards haven't been superseded by the current BS EN standards.
