Abstract
An heat alarm for an electric panel cabinet mounts a heat sensor within the enclosed area defined by the electric panel cabinet to monitor the temperature within the cabinet and sound an alarm if the temperature in the cabinet exceeds an upper temperature limit. The heat alarm includes a mounting arrangement positioned between the enclosure of the heat alarm and the electric panel cabinet such that the heat alarm can be mounted to the electric panel cabinet and the heat sensor positioned within the cabinet. The mounting arrangement of the heat alarm is formed of a thermally non-conductive material such that the enclosure containing the heat alarm is thermally isolated form the electric panel cabinet such that the enclosure of the heat alarm does not affect the temperature within the cabinet.
