Abstract

A switchgear cabinet with a frame having frame members and corner connectors, and an open base closable by one or more bottom plates. A simple mounting of the bottom plates is achieved because the frame members serving as lower depth struts are covered from below by essentially U-shaped cover elements that have lateral arms and are connected to the depth struts and/or the corner connectors. The depth struts are chamfered in a region of their outer edges and form a seat for the outer lateral arms of the cover elements. The inner lateral arms of the cover elements have bearing flanges for the bottom plates folded toward the facing depth strut. U-shaped clamping elements with clamping screws can be used to join the bottom plates to the bearing flanges of the inner lateral arms of the cover elements.
