One or more system and associated methods for installing a line spacer upon adjacent lines that are suspended are provided. A system includes a portion for holding and releasing the line spacer onto the lines. The system includes a portion for actuating securing portions of the line spacer to secure the line spacer upon the lines. The system includes a flying drone portion for levitation of the portion for holding and the portion for articulating to the lines.

One or more arrangements and associated methods for mechanical installation of an item at a location on a line that is suspended are provided. An arrangement includes a portion for mechanical actuation to install the item upon the line at the location. The arrangement includes a flying drone portion for levitation of the portion to the location on the line.

A mounting system for mounting a photovoltaic panel to a surface includes a mounting base that is supported on the surface. The mounting base defines an elongated opening that extends along an axis. A module mount can be coupled to the mounting base. The module mount includes a first mount portion that is received within the elongated opening of the mounting base such that the module mount is movable with respect to the mounting base along the axis. A second mount portion is coupled to the photovoltaic panel for mounting the photovoltaic panel to the surface through the mounting base.

A clamping apparatus secures a photovoltaic module to a rail. The clamping apparatus includes a bolt extending between a first end and a second end of the bolt. The clamping apparatus includes a clamp defining a bolt opening into which the bolt is received and a support structure. The support structure positions the clamp at a first location on the bolt. The first location is a first distance from a top rail surface plane within which a top surface of the rail lies. The support structure is adjustable to position the clamp at a second location on the bolt. The second location is a second distance from the top rail surface plane. The first distance is different than the second distance. The support structure has a support structure thickness corresponding to a third distance that is less than the first distance and less than the second distance.

A mount system for a supporting a plurality of photovoltaic panels includes a plurality of stanchions. Each stanchion is spaced apart from other stanchions in a linear stanchion array having first and second ends. Each stanchion includes a vertical member and a transverse member supported by the vertical member. The transverse member has a plurality of support points. The system includes a plurality of anchor arrangements. A first anchor arrangement is located proximate the first end and a second anchor arrangement is located proximate the second end. The system includes a plurality of cables. Each cable is under tension and extends between the first and second anchor arrangements. Each cables extends to engage and is supported by a support point on a transverse member. The system includes a plurality of photovoltaic panel attachments. Each photovoltaic panel attachment is secured to a point on a photovoltaic panel and to a cable.

An electrical box is provided in which a box enclosure is provided that includes a base, sides and at least one yoke for receiving an electrical device. The box enclosure can be formed of discrete components which can be assembled to form a single or multiple-gang box. A collar is provided as an interface between the box enclosure and the mounting surface. The collar hingeably retains a cover for optionally covering the electrical device. The cover in turn hingeably retains a cord door for admitting an electrical cord and other such cables. The cover and cord door each have respective gaskets which provide a fluid-tight seal to protect the electrical device. The cover can be manufactured for a single-gang or a multiple-gang electrical box.

A high-wattage lighting fixture includes a lamp socket assembly for receiving a lamp and a socket wire for supplying electrical power to the lamp socket. A heat sink is provided in thermal contact with the lamp socket assembly. A predetermined length of socket wire is in thermal contact with the heat sink in order to dissipate the heat from the socket and wire. A wiring compartment receives the socket wire and provides a connection to a supply wire. Since the socket wire is cooled down by the heat sink, it can be connected to any grade of supply wire.

Lighting fixture

An adjustable lamp assembly comprises a PAR type lamp housing an a mounting base for supporting the housing. A mechanical adjusting assembly interconnects the housing and the mounting base for permitting selective adjustment of the housing relative to the base about first and second axes lying in respective planes located at approximately 90.degree. relative to one another. The adjusting assembly includes an intermediate support member connected between the housing and the base with first connecting assembly joining the intermediate support member to the base and a second mechanical connecting assembly joining the intermediate support member to the housing. The first and second connecting assemblies each including separate first and second spring biased circular arrays of teeth-like members selectively movable axially along the respective first and second axes between locked positions and adjustment positions wherein selective rotary adjustment about the respective axis is permitted.
