Abstract
A rigid power conductor to be suspended from an overhead structure or ceiling by means of insulators for the supply of electric energy to electric power driven vehicles on rails. The conductor is a conductor wire held between two side-by-side I-beams urged together so as to form a continuous clamp for the wire. The wire has lateral grooves whereas the I-beams define a conforming downwardly opening slot with projections engaging the grooves in the wire. The joints connecting the successive I-beams are longitudinally displaced, and an expansion joint is disclosed which permits relative displacement of the successive lengths of conductor. There is also disclosed an apparatus for the installation of the conductor wire and various devices for interconnecting the I-beams.
