Abstract

A set of assemblable components for lighting installations comprises complementary channel profiled members (2,3) with sets of ribs and grooves (4) for engagement with one another to form a box-like hollow body (1) having within it ribs or wings (6) for fastening electrical components for feeding and assembling lamps, a lid (7) being mounted at the ends of the assembled profiled members (2,3) and having outer assembly and electrical connection means (10) for engagement and means (11,12) for electrical connection with the lids (7) of adjacent box-like hollow bodies and in respect to assembly and connection bodies mounted in intermediate distribution junctions (28) located at desired points of the layout, the assembly lids (7), as well as the distribution junctions (28), having means for fastening suspension struts (23).
