The invention relates to a current collector arrangement arranged to be mounted on a vehicle and to transmit electric power between a current conductor (130; 230; 330; 430; 530) located in the surface of a road and the vehicle, wherein the current collector arrangement comprises a current collector arm (150; 250; 350; 450; 550; 650; 750; 850; 950; 1050) that is arranged to be controllable for at least vertical displacement relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle, in order to position the current collector arm relative to the current conductor (130; 230; 330; 430; 530). The current collector arrangement comprises controllable actuators arranged to effect at least the vertical displacement the current collector arm (150; 250; 350; 450; 550; 650; 750; 850; 950; 1050). A first actuator (481; 581; 681; 781; 881; 981; 1081) is arranged to lower the current collector arm from a retracted position into a deployed position, and a second actuator (482; 582; 682; 782; 882; 982; 1082) is arranged to lift the current collector arm from the deployed position into the retracted position. During a vertical displacement effected by one of the first or second actuators, the other actuator is arranged to act as a damper.
