Abstract
A ceiling panel system includes a ceiling panel and a fixture assembly, which includes a bracket and a fixture. The bracket is mounted to the ceiling panel at a back side of the ceiling panel and has a base with a middle portion that is spaced apart from the back side of the ceiling panel and opposing side portions that extend from the middle portion and engage the back side of the ceiling panel proximate opposing edges of the ceiling panel. The fixture extends through an aperture formed in the middle portion of the bracket and is secured to the bracket such that the opposing edges of the ceiling panel carry substantially an entire weight of the fixture assembly.
