Abstract
The present invention relates to a system for coupling a vertically oriented electrical device to a wall utilizing an existing electrical recess for support and power. The system electrically couples the device to an existing power system while providing a mechanical coupling for support. In addition, the system provides for vertical adjustments while maintaining the electrical and mechanical coupling. The system generally includes a recess coupling module, a vertical support receptacle, an electrical power system, and at least one electrical device. The vertical support receptacle is coupled to the recess coupling module in a substantially perpendicular manner. The electrical power system is electrically coupled to the electrical system disposed in the existing power recess and distributed across the vertical support receptacle. The at least one electrical device is adjustably coupled to the vertical support receptacle such that it is both mechanically supported and electrically powered.
