ABSTRACT:
A wiring system for modular structures, such as prefabricated panels, which utilizes a novel disc stack connector. The connector comprises a stack of alternating conductive and insulative discs which are held in place by a rod traversing a central aperture in each disc. A primary supply cable may be attached to the disc stack connector, allowing parallel connections to secondary cables. Connector heads on the cables have several prongs for engaging the conductive discs. In the preferred embodiment, the conductive discs are smaller than the insulative discs, and one insulative disc is made larger to provide keying with a slot in the connector heads (i.e., the heads are polarized). The connector and cables are located out of sight within the raceways of the prefabricated panels.
