  "textContent": "The invention relates to an arrangement for connecting busbar elements (1), (2) of an overhead line system, which are arranged at a joint distance from one another and have a support (4) oriented horizontally in the installed position. In the arrangement according to the invention, the connection of the individual busbar elements (1), (2) at a joint distance from one another is effected with a U-shaped connecting profile (3), which has a central leg (3A) and two outer legs (3B), (3C). The central leg (3A) of the connecting profile (3) is slidably connected to the support (4) of the first busbar element (1) in the longitudinal direction of the busbar element and is firmly connected to the support (4) of the second busbar element (2), so that a length compensation is possible. In this arrangement, the outer legs (3B), (3C) of the connecting profile (3) laterally enclose the busbar elements (1), (2). With the first busbar element (1), contact rails (21) extending in the longitudinal direction of the busbar element are electrically connected, and with the outer legs (3B), (3C) of the U-shaped connecting profile (3), contact elements (22) are electrically connected, which are resiliently pretensioned onto the contact rails (21). The contact elements (22) and contact rails (21) permit length compensation over a large expansion range without the risk of cable breakage. Furthermore, only a small amount of space is required.",
