A power distribution system has a plurality of interlockable elongated power distribution modules each including an insulative housing formed from two matable insulative housing portions enclosing a plurality of elongated conductors. Each housing portions includes an elongated rib and groove structure along an edge thereof for engaging a corresponding rib and groove structure of an adjacent power distribution module thereby allowing modules to be joined together. Each module includes a plurality of electrical connection stations disposed along the housing and electrically connected to insulation-free regions of at least some of the conductors by the spanning prongs of electrical connector terminals. Certain stations receive electrical receptacles and other stations receive power jumpers to supply electrical energy to and from the module. The conductors may be entirely insulation-free since the two housing portions include elongated walls for maintaining the elongated conductors spaced and electrically insulated from one another. Certain walls of one portion each cooperate with a corresponding wall of the other portion to form a barrier between individual conductors, and at least one of the certain walls of the one portion and a corresponding wall of the other portion including matable lip and groove sections for holding the two housing portions together.

An electrical distribution assembly includes a distribution block having a first electrical connector. A distribution member includes a second electrical connector, with the second electrical connector mating with the first electrical connector. A retainer clip is separate from each of the distribution block and the distribution member. The retainer clip mechanically couples with and prevents electrical decoupling of the first electrical connector and the second electrical connector.

A conduit elbow assembly includes a hollow conduit piece having an end with an outer diameter, a body and a cap. The body has a first connective end with an end bore at the first connective end receiving the hollow conduit piece therein. A male fitting is located at the first connective end, the male fitting having an outer surface and an end which extends into the end bore. The outer surface of the male fitting has barbs which engage and retain the end of the hollow conduit piece thereon. The cap is attached ton the body and has a plurality of tapered projections, of which two are diametrically opposed to each other relative to the outer diameter of the hollow conduit piece. The two tapered projections form a wedge fit with the outer diameter of the hollow conduit piece.
