A low voltage power system with a rail member that fits on the front portion of a shelf of a merchandise display, where is the rail member has a pair of conductive members positioned within an upper channel of the rail member is disclosed. The rail member may have supply power to a variety of low voltage power devices.

Various embodiments of a power-data distribution system, fittings, and devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a power-data system comprises: an overhead power distribution system, including: a strut, a conductor wire within the strut, and an upper fitting engagement ledge; and a power-data device, including: a combined power and network output fitter mechanically engaged to the strut, the fitter including a fitter engagement element mechanically engaged to the upper fitting engagement ledge, the fitter including a conductor element able to move into the fitter and having at least one biasing element within the fitter; a powerline chipset, the powerline chipset including a powerline chipset and to an ethernet port; a data receiving device/power receiving device, the data receiving device/power receiving device including an ethernet port; and the ethernet port of the powerline chipset and the ethernet port of the data receiving device/power receiving device being connected by a transmission cable.

A merchandise display system may include a low voltage power assembly may comprise a track that includes one or more conductive rods and one or more mechanical connections, wherein the track is powered from a power source; and a power connector assembly that connects to the track, wherein the one or more conductive rods connect to the power assembly providing a power connection, and further wherein the one or more mechanical connections connect to the power assembly providing a mechanical connection. The power connector assembly may be configured to provide low voltage power through the track to a low voltage power device. The power assembly may include a configuration of mechanical connections and conductive material arranged in such a way as to provide power and/or signal distribution to a mating device, such as to a set of LED modules, other lighting sources, or powered track devices for use with a merchandise display system.

A lighting system that may include a platform, a plurality of hangers configured to hang the platform from a supporting structure, and at least one luminaire or light pendant electrically and structurally coupled to the platform for emitting light. The platform may include a plurality of first power bars spaced from one another and extending in a first direction, and a plurality of second power bars spaced from one another and extending in a second direction crossing the first direction. The first and second power bars may be electrically and structurally connected to one another.

There is provided herein controllable power and lighting system. There is particularly provided a method for the arrangement and automatic control of one or more power consuming devices, including one or more light emitting diode (LED)-containing lighting devices, and optionally one or more non-LED based devices, wherein the devices are adapted to be powered by 3-phase AC power within the present systems.
