Abstract
A bottom plate fixing device for a switchgear cabinet, whereby an edge of at least one bottom plate is placed on a support flange of a bottom frame of the switchboard cabinet and is preloaded by at least one fastening clip. The clip has two parallel legs which are held on a connecting section, whereby the first leg engages behind the support flange of the bottom plate and the other leg holds a screw in a thread. The screw can be tightened against the edge of the bottom plate. The bottom plate and the bottom frame can be reliably placed on the same electrical level by supporting the first leg on the support flange by cutting and/or sharpening contact elements, and such that the screw is in electrically conductive contact with the edge of the bottom plate.
