Abstract

A profiled aluminum bar for electricity distribution includes a metal component 20 that is assembled with an aluminum profile 10 through respective aligned lobes of complementary shape, to form a joint of, for example, a winding shape, and providing the assembly with resistance to tensile forces. The component 20 can notably be a contact component made of copper with a tapping or jointing function, or an aluminum profile providing an extension to the bar at right angles to it.
