You will need (1) power feed per track run no matter if the run is 4’ or 40’.
The first type of power feed is a live end power feed.
The live end feed snaps onto the end of your track and means that that end of the track must be placed directly over the junction box.
The live end feed has knock outs that allow wiring to feed through the back. If you are feeding power to your track with wire that has conduit casing be sure to use a live end feed that accepts 1/2 “ conduit.
The hard wired live end feed is my personal preference as it provides a clean hidden appearance.
Live end feeds can accommodate standard wiring, conduit wiring and can even be had with a cord and plug for the application that just can’t be hard wired.
The second type of power feed is the floating feed. The floating feed offers a bit more flexibility in that it allows for the feed connection to be made anywhere along the track. While more flexible I think the floating feed is a bit clunky looking.
