ABSTRACT:
An electrical connection strip with a releasable mounting for attaching to mounting brackets of different configurations. The electrical connection strip includes an elongated block of electrically non-conductive material and a first mounting assembly. The mounting assembly comprises two longitudinal members that extend from an end of the block with a cross member running between them. Attached to the cross member is a vertical locking member which extends above and below the longitudinal members. The vertical locking member includes a locking formation located above the longitudinal members and a boss located below the longitudinal members. The locking formation and boss are configured to cooperatively engage a locking recess in a tabbed mounting bracket and tabless mounting bracket respectively. A rotational fixity member comprises a region of the longitudinal members formed with a first notch and a second notch with each notch configured to receive an edge of the tabless mounting bracket and an edge of the tabbed mounting bracket respectively. A preferred embodiment also includes a second mounting assembly which is located opposite the first mounting assembly and is a mirror image of it.
