Abstract
An electrical power track system employing an elongated track having had a plurality of longitudinal slots opening outwardly of laterally opposite side surfaces of the track and providing access to a plurality of offset longitudinal electrical conductors or bus bars, and a gripper member adapted to be mounted in straddle fashion on the track and carrying electrical contacts which are manipulated in response to mounting of he gripper member on the track so as to selectively engage the electrical conductors and facilitate connection of an electric load to an electrical circuit carried by the track. The longitudinal slots are preferably 'L' or 'T' shaped in transverse cross section and prevent straight-in access to the associated longitudinal conductors carried by the track.
