DOOR SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR AN ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ENCLOSURE
A door support system is provided for an enclosure of an electrical distribution system. The door support system includes a rail fixedly secured to a door panel of the enclosure. The rail includes at least one notch. The door support system also includes a support member mounted to a frame of the enclosure. The support member is slidably mounted to the rail such that the support member slides along a length of the rail between an extended position and a retracted position. The extended position of the support member supports the door panel in an open position. The support member is in the retracted position when the door panel is in a closed position. The support member includes a detent configured to be received into the notch of the rail to releasably lock the support member in the extended position along the length of the rail.
A roof support system includes a support member configured to be mounted between a roof panel and a frame of an enclosure. The support member is movable to an extended position that supports the roof panel in an open position. A cam lock mechanism is operatively connected to the support member for releasably locking the support member in the extended position. In the extended position, a pin of the support member is received within a slot of the cam lock mechanism such that engagement of the pin with a closed end of the slot prevents the support member from moving from the extended position toward a retracted position. The cam lock mechanism includes a cam configured to rotate to a locking position that at least partially blocks an open end of the slot such that the pin of the support member is prevented from backing out of the slot.

E05F 1/10 - Closers or openers for wings, not otherwise provided for in this subclass spring-actuated for swinging wings
E05F 11/02 - Man-operated mechanisms for operating wings, including those which also operate the fastening for wings in general, e.g. fanlights

A switching mechanism includes an actuator rotatable between an off position and an on position; and a timing disc assembly that includes an actuator disc, a bias disc, and a switch disc arranged in a stack. The actuator disc is rotatably connected to the actuator. The bias disc is connected to at least one biasing mechanism. The switch disc is connected to a switch. The actuator disc is configured to engage the bias disc such that the actuator disc is configured to rotate the bias disc to an overcenter position of the at least one biasing mechanism. The overcenter position of the at least one biasing mechanism is configured to rotate the bias disc such that engagement between the bias disc and the switch disc is configured to rotate the switch disc between a closed position and an open position of the switch.

Connector assemblies and blade contact structures therefor
A connector assembly comprises a base, a conventional lay in conductor connector channel, a blade contact superstructure and a blade contact. The base has the blade contact superstructure appended to one sidewall thereof. The blade contact superstructure has a cavity between generally “V” shaped blade receiving supports. The blade contact is a plated copper strip and is inserted into the cavity between the blade receiving supports where the blade contact then becomes an interface between the superstructure and an electrical blade inserted in the blade contact.
A watt-hour revenue socket block comprises at least three rising legs to allow the meter socket to step up or recess down depending on the orientation of the meter socket block. A cooperating meter socket enclosure has raised and lowered sections on the back wall to receive the rising legs to allow stepping up or recessing down of the meter socket. The meter socket has integral cap tracks to allow the cap to be moved to a position over the center of the meter socket block and be retained in that position by a tab while inserting the conductor in the lay in channel.
A deadfront junction mounting plate comprises a sheet metal panel, a plurality of panel mounting holes, a plurality of junction module mounting holes, at least one ground shield hole and at least one parking stand wherein the plurality of junction module mounting holes are further provided with fasteners integral therewith. The sheet metal panel has a first planar portion, a second planar portion and a third planar portion, the first planar portion provided with the panel mounting holes, the second planar portion provided with the junction module mounting holes and the third planar portion provided with the parking stand and the ground shield hole. The second planar portion is disposed at an angle to the first planar portion and the third planar portion is parallel to the second planar portion.
An electrical connector is provided with a stud connector hole disposed into one end thereof which has a shallow V-groove therein, the flanks of the V-groove provided with threads for both sizes of studs commonly disposed therein wherein the threads of the smaller diameter stud are disposed into the flanks of the V-groove spaced from the threads of the larger diameter stud. The shallow V-groove provides at least two areas of contact on either size stud inserted therein, the areas of contact maintained along the length of the stud.
H01R 11/09 - Individual connecting elements providing two or more spaced connecting locations for conductive members which are, or may be, thereby interconnected, e.g. end pieces for wires or cables supported by the wire or cable and having means for facilitating electrical connection to some other wire, terminal, or conductive member, blocks of binding posts characterised by the type of the connecting locations on the individual element or by the type of the connections between the connecting locations and the conductive members the connecting locations being identical
