Abstract
A method of assembling and stabilizing a power distribution system on a support member includes the steps of: fixing a jumper mounting bracket to a jumper cable near one end of the jumper cable; fastening a power distribution block to the support member; electrically coupling the jumper cable one end and the power distribution block; attaching the jumper mounting bracket to the support member; electrically connecting a modular electrical component to the power distribution block; mechanically connecting the modular electrical component to the jumper mounting bracket; fastening a second power distribution block to the support member at a preferred location relative to the location of the first mentioned distribution block; fixing two additional jumper mounting brackets to a second jumper cable, one near each of the opposite ends of the second jumper cable; electrically coupling one end of the second jumper cable to the first mentioned power distribution block; electrically coupling the other end of the second jumper cable to the second power distribution block; and attaching the two additional jumper mounting brackets to the support member.
