The invention relates to a conductor rail (4) for supplying an electrical current to a current collector (30) of a rail vehicle moving in a direction of travel (1) on entering a section insulator (19, 31), comprising: a rail body (10, 12, 13) having a contact track (14) which extends in the direction of travel (1) and conducts the electrical current and is arranged on the rail body (10, 12, 13) in such a manner that the current collector (30) can be applied to the contact track (14) in a contacting direction (9); and an auxiliary wire (70), which is held on the rail body (10, 12, 13) at a transverse direction distance (76) from the contact track (14) as viewed in a transverse direction (11) at an angle to the contacting direction (9) and to the direction of travel (1), wherein the auxiliary wire (70) is arranged at a contacting direction distance (75) from the contact track (14) as viewed in the contacting direction (9), said contacting direction distance decreasing in the direction of travel (1).
