ABSTRACT:
A lighting fixture hanging panel and bracket has a flat rigid panel having a large and small aperture therein, shaped to fix a suspended ceiling grid. The panel may be of heavy plywood for supporting a hanging light fixture. An elongated light fixture suspending bracket has a circular portion shaped to fit over an aperture in the panel with the circular portion having a plurality of threaded openings therein positioned to receive threaded fasteners from a lighting fixture being attached to the lighting fixture bracket. The lighting fixture suspending bracket circular portion also has an elongated opening therein, and a bracket electrical receptacle supporting tab fixedly holding an electrical receptacle adjacent to the lighting fixture suspending bracket elongated opening. A switch is attached to the lighting fixture suspending bracket and a pull cord extends therefrom through to the small aperture in the panel. The switch is connected to the receptacle so that a light fixture may be rapidly attached and removed in lighting fixture showrooms. The circular portion in the bracket may be sunken to align the bracket by placing the circular portion in the panel aperture.
