A system for electrically feeding an electrically powered vehicle, comprising an elongate conductive element extending along a road on which the vehicle is adapted to travel, and a current collector being adapted to co-act with the elongate conductive element, the elongate conductive element being adapted to be electrically energised, the current collector comprising: a contact element being adapted to connect with the elongate conductive element; and a collector arm supporting the contact element at a first end thereof and adapted to connect to the electrically powered vehicle with a second end thereof, wherein the collector arm is formed from a first segment and a second segments, the first segment being connected to the second segment, wherein the first segment comprises the first end of the collector arm, the first segment provided with forcing means to apply a force towards the elongate conductive element when the first segment is within a working distance from the elongate conductive element, such that the contact element connects with the elongate conductive element, wherein the second segment is provided with an actuator configured to act on the second segment to displace the first segment to a position within the working distance.
