Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a power supply for a plurality of signaling devices on an emergency vehicle. The power supply includes a plurality of outlets distributed along a housing. A cable raceway extends through the housing past the plurality of outlets and defines a passage through which cables can be fed to connect each of the signaling devices to a respective one of the outlets. A cable comb is supported by the power supply housing and defines a plurality of cable slots in the cable raceway, with each slot being located adjacent a respective one of the outlets. Each outlet can have an associated light-emitting device (LED) for displaying an operational status of the signaling device connected to the respective outlet. A cover can be supported on the housing for movement between open and closed positions. The cover includes a plurality of light pipes arranged such that when the cover is in the closed position the cover encloses the outlets and LEDs and each light pipe is in optical registration with a respective one of the LEDs so as to provide a readily visible indication of the operational status of the individual signaling devices through the closed cover.
