Track Busway with breakered power drop cord

Industrial Overhead Power Distribution

Flexible overhead power for equipment, workstations, and assembly lines. USA TrackBusway provides modular overhead power systems designed for industrial environments.

Plug-in Track Busway kits allow equipment, workstations, and assembly lines to be powered overhead while adapting easily as layouts change.

  • Drop-down overhead power for industrial equipment and workstations
  • Three-phase overhead power for manufacturing lines
  • Breakered plug-in power drops for flexible layouts
  • Future-proof power distribution without conduit or rewiring
  • Lighting supported as a secondary load on the same system

Power Drop Options

PowerDrops plug directly into the Track Busway system and deliver power exactly where it is needed along the run.

Power Drop Methods for Industrial Applications

Flexible Overhead Power for Industrial Spaces

USA TrackBusway is a continuous, open-channel, plug-in busway system designed for flexible overhead power distribution in industrial environments.

For applications that require local disconnects, equipment protection, or code-driven point-of-use control, breakered outlet boxes can be added directly to the overhead track. These plug-in units provide integrated circuit protection at the drop location, allowing industrial equipment to be powered safely and reconfigured without additional conduit, junction boxes, or downtime.

In most industrial projects, Track Busway is specified first as an overhead branch-circuit power distribution system, allowing equipment layouts to change without rewiring. By suspending power above the floor, facilities can adapt to new machinery, automation, and production workflows while avoiding downtime and unnecessary electrical labor. Lighting is typically added later as a secondary load using the same overhead infrastructure.

    Overhead Drop-Down Power for Industrial Equipment & Workstations

    Modular power drops deliver localized, point-of-use electricity for tools, equipment, and workstations. Plug-in tap-off points allow circuits to be added or repositioned without rewiring, minimizing downtime in active industrial environments.

    Three-Phase Overhead Power for Manufacturing Plants

    Three-phase Track Busway supports higher-load industrial equipment, conveyors, and production machinery. Overhead distribution allows power to follow changing layouts while reducing conduit, homeruns, and long-term electrical labor.

    Breakered Power Drops for Industrial Machinery & Code Compliance

    Breakered power drops provide protected, code-compliant power at the point of use. Ideal for tools and equipment requiring local disconnects, they support safer operations while maintaining system flexibility.

Superior Cost-Effectiveness Over Time

Traditional systems may cost less upfront but bring hidden costs that include frequent rewiring and labor demands, increasing your total cost of ownership (TCO). It’s time to run this equation on its head with Track Busway, which delivers:

  • Reduced labor costs based on minimizing installation and reconfiguration times.
  • Simplified overhead layouts with fewer homerun feeds, reducing material expenses.
  • Reusable components that cut waste, contribute towards sustainability and efficiency over time.

Future-Proof Power Distribution for Manufacturing & Assembly Lines

USA TrackBusway is engineered to support both current production needs and long-term expansion across industrial facilities:

  • 40A and 225A Track Busway Systems:
    USA TrackBusway supports 40-amp and 225-amp per-phase systems in both single-phase and three-phase configurations, allowing facilities to match power capacity to equipment demand without overbuilding infrastructure.
  • Flexible Voltage & Circuit Access: On three-phase systems, 1-pole, 2-pole, and 3-pole plug-in units allow different voltages to be tapped directly from the same overhead busway — supporting a mix of tools, machinery, and equipment along a single run.
  • Reconfigurable Layouts & Intersections: Modular joiners and intersections allow overhead power layouts to evolve as production lines change, keeping power aligned with equipment while minimizing conduit, homeruns, and future labor costs.

    For higher-capacity industrial environments, the 225A Track Busway system extends the same modular architecture while supporting larger electrical loads. Manufacturing plants, assembly lines, and logistics facilities can distribute higher-amperage overhead power while still maintaining the ability to add or reposition plug-in units as equipment layouts evolve.
An Additional Advantage of Track Busway for Industrial Projects: Plug-In Lighting

Plug-and-Play Lighting for Industrial Facilities & Warehouses

USA TrackBusway® enables plug-and-play industrial lighting using the same overhead infrastructure as equipment power, eliminating dedicated conduit runs and reducing installation time with pre-wired fixtures.

Flexibility with Industrial Track Lighting

USA TrackBusway® allows industrial lighting fixtures to be repositioned anywhere along the busway, just like a power drop. By using the same plug-in connection method, fixtures can be added, moved, or re-spaced without rewiring, conduit changes, or downtime as layouts evolve.
