Abstract

A fan assembly and mounting method is provided for mounting a fan within an electrical enclosure. The assembly includes a mounting assembly which houses the fan and can be removed from the exterior of the enclosure. The fan assembly also includes an interior mounting plate which can be detached from the mounting assembly to allow fan removal from the interior of the enclosure. Thus, the fan assembly allows the fan to be accessed from both the interior and exterior of the enclosure.
