ABSTRACT:
A hold-down bracket secures an electrical terminal block to an enclosure surface. The terminal block includes a base having a plurality of circular terminal modules extending upwardly therefrom. The connector modules are arranged in plural staggered rows. Adjacent modules define a longitudinal passage therebetween. The bracket includes an elongate body having a securement element at one end for mechanical securement to the enclosure surface and an elongate terminal block holding member at the other end for positioning within the passage defined between adjacent terminal modules. The terminal block holding member has outwardly diverging opposed curved sidewalls preventing lateral withdrawal of the holding member through the passage. The mounting bracket may be supported at various locations along the terminal block to facilitate mounting to the enclosure surface.
