Peer comment(s):
disagree Sven Petersson : No, it's derived from "skena" (which in this case is a rektangular copper bar)

power duct

As you probably already know "skena", in this context, is a copper bar used for conducting (high voltage) electricity (i.e. a busbar), and "stråk" is where the cables and busbars are positioned. I don't really know any English translation for this. The best is probably to use one term for cables and busbars together, like power duct or power channel.
