Various embodiments of the apparatus and/or methods are described for routing power to a wall-mounted appliance, particularly for routing electrical wiring and audio/video cabling up through a wall to power and communicate with a wall-mounted presentation device. The apparatus and systems include input and output enclosures with wiring therebetween and mechanisms for mounting the input and output enclosures adjacent to pre-cut wall openings. There exists at least one electrical input connector, disposed within the input enclosure, configured to electrically couple with a power source, and at least one electrical output connector, disposed within the output enclosure, configured to electrically couple with a wall-mounted appliance.

An electrical power extension module comprising: a housing; a first retaining means for mechanical engagement with a first another electrical power extension module, the first retaining means being at a first end of the housing; a first electrical connector at the first end of the housing, the first electrical connector being configured for electrically connecting with a connector of the first another electrical module; a second retaining means for mechanical engagement with a second another electrical power extension module, the second retaining means being at a second end of the housing; a second electrical connector at the second end of the housing, the second electrical connector configured for electrically connecting with a connector of the second another module; and electrical conduction means located within the housing and connected between the first electrical connector and the second electrical connector and electrically connecting the first electrical connector with the second electrical connector.

A wire harness includes a functional exterior component, at least one electric wire, and at least one thread. The functional exterior component is shaped into a sheet. The electric wire is disposed on one main surface of the functional exterior component. With the thread the electric wire is sewn on the functional exterior component.

An electric wire outer cover is provided which is to be fitted around an electric wire and which has a tubular housing portion where the electric wire is to be housed, the housing portion being formed of a sheet, the housing portion being formed in a folded state. Further, walls forming the housing portion include a first wall having a projection formed therefrom and a second wall having a hole formed therein, and the housing portion is formed by engagement between the first wall and the second wall through melting of the projection that has passed through the hole and welding of the melted projection to the second wall.

It is common to bundle plural conductor wires (e.g., via cable tie) when conductor wires are run collectively some distance (e.g., from the back of a computer tower to related devices (e.g., mouse, monitor)). Oftentimes bundled conductor wires are broken or damaged—potentially posing a shock hazard—when conductor wires are bundled too tightly or bent at too extreme an angle. These concerns are exacerbated in long runs of conductor wire in enclosed spaces where friction and strain relief also become concerns—for example, in large scale applications where tall, substantially hollow poles contain long runs of conductor wire which connect devices at or near the top of the pole to devices at or near the bottom of the pole. Disclosed herein are apparatus and methods of supporting runs of conductor wire in a manner that overcomes the above deficiencies, and further provides stability and protection.

An electrical cord receiving anti-fatigue mat assembly includes a panel that has a top side, a bottom side and a perimeter edge. The panel is comprised of a resiliently compressible material. The bottom side has a trough therein with the trough having a pair of ends each comprising an opening extending through the perimeter edge. The trough receives an electrical cord such that the bottom side abuts and is flush with a floor surface when the electrical cord is positioned within the trough and extends through each of the openings. The trough has a depth and width each being greater than 0.40 inches.

There is provided a raceway cover assembly for installing conductive element(s) in an aircraft. The raceway cover assembly includes a raceway cover for removable coupling to a raceway. The raceway is configured for attachment to a sidewall assembly for use in a cabin of the aircraft. The raceway cover includes a first cover side, a second cover side, and retaining element(s) disposed on the first cover side. The raceway cover assembly further includes the conductive element(s) coupled and retained to the first cover side, with the retaining element(s), to form the raceway cover assembly. The conductive element(s) and the raceway cover are assembled together at a location off of the aircraft, prior to installing the raceway cover assembly with the one or more conductive elements in the aircraft, which allows for routing of the one or more conductive elements in the raceway cover at the location off of the aircraft.
