ABSTRACT:
An assembly for supplying power to a system of modular wall panels may include a housing, a lid, and a sleeve positionable on a conduit and disposed between the lid and housing. The sleeve is configured to have a predetermined shape that cooperates with structure on either the lid, the housing, or both to fix the conduit in a plurality of different orientations or positions with respect to the housing and lid. The sleeve may include positioning means, such as a key, and the housing may be configured to include an opening in which the positioning means is selectively positionable in a first orientation whereby the conduit assumes a first position with respect to the housing and a second orientation whereby the conduit assumes a second position with respect to the housing that is different than the first position. The housing may include a second opening in which the positioning means is disposed when the conduit assumes the second position. The sleeve may be configured to include second positioning means and the lid configured to include an opening in which the second positioning means is disposed. Alternatively, the housing and/or lid may include positioning means and the sleeve may have one or more openings in which the positioning means is disposable, in various orientations, to fix the conduit in a plurality of different positions. The assembly may additionally include a plug-in connector coupled to the conduit that is configured to plug into a corresponding connector.
