ABSTRACT:
A pair of equipment brackets is disclosed which facilitates mounting electrical equipment and the like in an equipment rack or cabinet. Each bracket attaches to the side panels of the electrical equipment and a portion of the bracket extends outward from the equipment to overlap the side rails of the equipment rack/cabinet. The overlapping portion of each bracket contains a plurality of bore holes arranged in a pattern to match the spacing of the tapped bores in the side rails. The overlapping portion of each bracket also contains a semi-circular slot located at the bottom edge of the bracket. The purpose of the slot in each bracket is to receive a mounting screw partially inserted into the equipment rack. When two such screws are partially inserted into the equipment rack, one on each side at the desired location for mounting the electrical equipment, the overlapping portion of each bracket can be slid down the rack so that the slots receive the screw shaft. The equipment is captured between the surface of the rack and the head of the screws, and thus is temporarily supported on the equipment rack to enable the equipment installer to insert and tighten the remaining supporting screws in the bracket and equipment rack/cabinet.
