ABSTRACT:
To form a universal electrical cabinet that can be assembled without conventional fasteners, the side sections of a U-shaped member each have an outwardly-extending flange that abuts a corresponding outwardly-extending flange on the side sections of an inverted U-shaped member, with the central sections of the U-shaped member and inverted U-shaped members forming the bottom and top of the cabinet respectively and the side sections combining to form two sides of the cabinet. Tracks or grooves along the front and the rear of the U-shaped and inverted U-shaped members receive front and rear panel members for the cabinet, with the front member having the dials and meters and the like and the rear member generally having electrical connectors. Elongated C-shaped members fit over the flanges where they abut to hold the side sections together so as to form a cabinet. Printed circuits and the like are mounted within the cabinet by suitable abutments and ridges in the U-shaped and inverted U-shaped members.
