MOUNTING FOOT FOR ELECTRICAL ENCLOSURE AND ELECTRICAL ENCLOSURE INCLUDING THE SAME
An electrical enclosure for an electrical device or instrument includes an enclosure body defining an interior that receives the electrical device or instrument, the enclosure body including a back wall. A mounting foot is disposed outside the enclosure body and attached to the back wall. The mounting foot includes a generally planar body defining a mounting fastener opening that receives a fastener to secure the mounting foot to a wall or other support structure. A panel fastener is attached to and extends forward from the mounting foot, through the back wall, and into the interior of the enclosure body. The panel fastener is used to secure an internal panel to the enclosure body within the interior of the enclosure body.

Vertical wall mount host enclosure
A wall mount enclosure has a backpan with a back panel and a plurality of side panels extending forwards from the back panel. A plurality of extensions are releasably attached to the backpan side panels and to adjacent extensions to form an extension assembly extending forwards from the backpan. The extension assembly as an assembly is releasable from and attachable to the backpan, and individual extensions are releasable from and attachable to the backpan and their respective adjacent extensions. At least one door is removably attached to one of the extensions and movable between a closed position and an open position.

Cover extension for electrical panel
A cover extension can be installed above or below a wall-mounted electrical panel (e.g., a circuit breaker panel) to cover an opening in the wall immediately above or below the panel. The cover extension includes a panel member, a bottom flange, and two top couplings and stop members. The flange extends downwards from the panel member bottom and is offset from the panel member so that it can fit behind the panel cover of the electrical panel to secure the cover extension bottom to the panel cover. The mechanical stops (e.g., brackets) are located on the panel member rear face and configured to each cause the respective coupling member on the panel member rear face to engage the cover extension to secure the cover extension top to the wall.
Vertical Cable Manager with Slam-Shut Door
A vertical cable manager includes a base frame and a door. The base frame has upper and lower support legs and upper and lower crossbars between the support legs. The door has retractable hinge pins at corners of the door. The crossbars have hinge rod receptacles to receive respective hinge pins and elastic latch members having a flexible arm and a catch portion. The catch portions secure the hinge pins in the hinge rod receptacles with the door closed and are deflectable through elastic deformation of the flexible arm to allow travel of the hinge pins through the hinge rod receptacles and past the catch portions when the door is moved from an open to a closed position.

Reusable Electrical Panel Cover With Breakaway Edges
A reusable electrical panel cover for protecting an electrical panel box made of a sturdy rectangular box-shaped panel cover with two length-edge sides and two width-edge sides, a front, a plurality of small openings for attaching the reusable electrical panel cover to an electrical panel box, at least one cutout in the front for access through the reusable electrical panel cover to the electrical panel, and at least one breakaway portion on one width-edge side and at least one breakaway portion on one length-edge side, with each breakaway portion having a breakaway edge.
High strength door systems suitable for load centers and/or meter breakers
Enclosures for an electrical apparatus include a housing comprising a back and first and second spaced apart sidewalls extending outwardly from the back and providing an interior space and a door pivotably attached to the housing, the door having a primary body with a bottom having a bottom flange and first and second laterally spaced apart side flanges. The bottom flange and the side flanges have a folded inwardly extending edge joining first and second parallel wall segments that are orthogonal to the primary body of the door. The enclosure can also include at least one slot extending through the first and second parallel wall segments of the bottom flange and/or a retention bracket attached to an inner surface of the door that engages the housing.
