Abstract
A distributing frame having a terminal block member attached to it by a mounting bracket which is secured either to the block member or a frame member by one of two interconnected mounting parts lying in different planes. Loosening of screw securing means passing through one of the mounting parts allows for relative movement of the mounting bracket and the respective member to reposition the securing means in the other mounting parts. This causes change in the angle of orientation of the bracket and respective member and thus causes the block member to pivot on the frame member. To connect electrical wiring to terminals on each side of the block member, it may thus be mounted in one of two alternative positions without removal from the frame while using a simple, one-piece bracket.
