Abstract

Methods and integrated apparatus are disclosed for electrically disconnecting and allowing external support and access for electrical devices in a power conversion system cabinet. The apparatus includes a support structure that translates a power conversion system component at least partially through a door or other cabinet opening between a first position with the component entirely within the cabinet and a second position with the component supported at least partially outside the cabinet, as well as a power disconnect apparatus operated by translation of the support structure to disconnect the component from electrical power when the support is translated from the first position to the second position.
