Abstract

A switchgear cubicle with a frame having individual framing sections and/or framing sections folded against cladding components, the open sides of which are covered or can be closed off by cladding components and a door. The framing sections and the cladding components are painted and the framing sections have at least one row of square or rectangular securing apertures on one side directed perpendicularly to the facing cladding component. An electrical connection between the cladding component and the frames is accomplished with U-shaped spring components which are secured in an aperture, supported on the components to be interconnected by spring-loaded claws and penetrate the paint coatings.
