Abstract

An electrical track lighting system. The track lighting system includes a flexible track that includes a foamed adhesive strip on the upper surface separating two conductor rails. The track is cut to length and secured to the desired surface by the adhesive strip. Light fixtures having spring clip members with electrical contact surfaces engage onto the upper surface conductor rails of the track. An elastomer body provides a resilient force to ensure the engagement of the spring clip members.
