Method of branching power around an obstacle

摘要: A modular furniture power distribution system includes at least two multiconductor electrical cables, upstanding partition panels, a stanchion for supporting juxtaposed panel ends, and collar. Each of the cables have an connector first end thereof. panels elongated generally horizontally extending channel receiving corresponding cable. The forms obstacle precluding direct communication between adjacent channels providing inadequate clearance to accommodate coupling connectors. collar partially encircles circumventing electrically cable in one with other channel. pair connectors opposite ends collar, each being adapted mate connector, mating pairs engaging disengaging by relative motion direction elongation.
