Abstract

A distribution bus 12 comprises a conductor sheet 16 and another electrode 18 separated by an insulating sheet 20 of foamed plastic or foamed glass, or by air. A jack plug 14 can be plugged in anywhere on the bus 12 by poking a contact pin 44 through a hole 64 in the conductor sheet 16 to contact the other electrode 18, and poking a contact sleeve 46 through the same hole 64 to contact the conductor sheet 16. The jack plug 14 is clipped to the bus 12 by clips 62 which are pushed through other holes 64 in conductor sheet 16 and are cammed by a rotatable wheel 28 into operative position.
