Abstract

Apparatus is provided for mounting components in enclosures such as electrical junction boxes and the like. The apparatus includes a bracket, which is attached to a surface of the enclosure, and a mounting element, which is attached to the bracket. The bracket can be mounted in one of two preferred orientations, each orientation affording a different mounting height for the mounting element. The mounting element may be attached to the upper or lower surface of the bracket in either of its preferred orientations, or may be clamped between the bracket and the surface of the enclosure. Flexible arrangement of the components within the enclosure is possible through the selection of a preferred bracket orientation and a preferred mounting position for the mounting element.
