Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

An electrical connection housing assembly for insertion in an interfloor passage for floor-to-floor electrical transmission of both power and communication includes a first housing comprised of first matter, a second housing comprised of second matter of lesser heat conductivity than the first matter, the second housing having a first portion assembled with the first housing and a second portion extending from the first housing and a divider arrangement for separating respective power and communication cables to be inserted in the assembly from one another. The divider arrangement includes a first divider, comprised of a resilient strip of intumescent material, fixedly supported in the assembly and a second divider removably supported in the assembly and in registry with the first divider for jointly defining respective power and communication channels through the assembly. Diverse power pedestals can be individually applied to the assembly, which has capability for the receipt of different such second dividers associated with the different pedestals. The second different divider may be formed derivatively from the first divider.
