The invention relates to an arrangement for the cable supply of a movable consumer, in particular in vertical applications, such as for example a drilling rig or the like. A main energy guide chain (10) guides at least one cable between a first connection point (6) and a second connection point (7) that is movable relative thereto, wherein said second connection point is moved between a first end position (4) and a second end position (5) of the consumer. According to the invention, a displaceable carriage (20) with an additional auxiliary energy guide chain (14) is provided for guiding the at least one cable between a third connection point (8) on the displaceable carriage and a stationary fourth connection point (9). This allows a retraction of the main energy guide chain (10) between an operating position and a parking position.
An assembly for supplying power to a mobile load in a vertical application, such as a drilling rig comprising:
