Prewired Electrical Apparatus Having Quick Connect Components
US Patent:
2002018, Dec 12, 2002
Filed:
Jul 18, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/198567
Inventors:
James Schultz - South Lake Tahoe CA, US
Michael Weber - South Lake Tahoe CA, US

International Classification:
H01H009/02, H01H013/04
US Classification:
174/053000
Abstract:
A power distribution system, suitable for use in a building, comprising a junction box, a hub, a junction device, and a cover plate. Wiring from the building is connected to the hub using alternative means such as stab-in connections, set screws, or loop screws, and color coding facilitates proper wiring. Also, the junction device is a modular piece that can be attached to the junction box via interference there between. Furthermore, a cover plate can be attached to the junction device via interference there between, or the cover plate can be integrally attached to the junction device. One embodiment of the hub accommodates circuitry that functions with the junction device while simultaneously accommodates circuitry wholly independent of the junction device. As such, the power distribution system enables wiring to be completed more quickly and accurately, in a wider variety of applications, thereby advantageously reducing associated costs.
