Abstract: A free standing supply column for supplying energy and for delivering communications to and away from implements or working devices, especially in offices. The column has a base support or base plate, and radial, horizontally swingable supporting arms installed on the column for the implements or devices. The supporting arms have a horizontal section and a vertical section. Several vertical pipe sections are arranged in a circle about the column middle axis in or around the upper part of the column. On these pipe sections the vertical sections of the swingable supporting arms with supply lines are held in such a way as to be individually adjustable in height.
