  • Patent number: 5266057
    Abstract: An electronic power distributor is provided. The distributor is a cylindrical base unit shaped like a hockey puck which contains a top surface, bottom and side circular surfaces. In the top surface, there are a number of holes which extend into the base unit. These holes have a threaded portion for engaging with a power bolt. The side circular surface contains a number of holes which extend into the base unit and are positioned to perpendicularly intersect the holes which extend from the top surface. The holes on the side are capable of receiving the strands of a wire conductor or an adapter of other size conductors. The power bolts which hold the wire conductors in the holes through the side circular surface contain three portions. The first portion is conical and contain a first annular beveled surface extending radially and axially generally toward the vertex.
