An energy supply system includes a cable store for winding and unwinding an energy cable about a winding center of the cable store. A carrier is provided for the at least one energy cable, and the cable store has an opening for the inlet and outlet of the carrier and the energy cable. The carrier can be guided through the opening in order to guide the carrier and the energy cable in sections in the cable store to the winding center of the cable store over a first guide path through a first guide arc, over a second guide path, which adjoins the first guide arc, through a second guide arc, and over a third guide path, which adjoins the second guide arc and lies further inwards relative to the winding center than the first guide path, and optionally over additional guide paths and guide arcs, using guiding means.

A conductor line for supplying an electric load movable on the conductor line in the longitudinal direction of the conductor line, includes at least one conductor strand which runs in the longitudinal direction and has an electrically conductive profiled conductor section for contacting a sliding contact of a current collector of the load and at least one elongated slotted waveguide, which runs in the longitudinal direction, with a longitudinal slot for receiving an antenna which can be moved together with the load. A related current collector and a conductor line system are also provided. The aim is to allow a compact and material-saving design with good fault-tolerant transmission. This is achieved by a conductor line in which the longitudinal slot is tilted by an angle which does not equal 90° about the longitudinal direction with respect to a movement plane on which the current collector can be moved, by a current collector in which the antenna or a part thereof is completely or partly tilted by an angle which also does not equal 90° about the longitudinal direction with respect to the movement plane, and by a conductor line system including such a conductor line and current collector.
