Electrical conductor for use in current collector system for power supply over bus bar in motor car, has conductor part and safety fuse forming cable-shaped structural unit that combines function of current transmission with fuse protection

摘要

The conductor (2) has a flexible current conductor part (4) and an over current protection device designed as a safety fuse (6). The current conductor part and the safety fuse form a flexible cable-shaped structural unit that combines a function of the current transmission with electrical fuse protection. The current conductor part and the safety fuse are provided with electrical security function, where the safety fuse is formed by the flexible current conductor part with a reduced conductor cross section (8). The safety fuse includes a component with a fusion conductor. An independent claim is also included for a current collector system.
