ABSTRACT:
An electrical connection system200comprises a rail202and a plurality of electrically conducting posts204fixed to the rail202. The rail202is in the form of a tube or rod provided with complimentary electrical connectors208and210at opposite ends. Each post204is coupled to a rail202by a short transverse link205. A fitting216is provided at a free end206of each post204to facilitate mechanical and electrical connection with a through hole terminal. Pairs of rails202may be disposed side by side to form nominal positive and negative rails with the posts of the rails202interleaving each other and in mutual alignment. In some instances, photovoltaic tiles10that include holes28and30forming conductive terminals are fitted over posts204.
