An aeronautical electrical equipment fixing baseplate (1) comprising:
- a spacer comprising first attachment device defining a fixing base (3), and second attachment device defining a support face (4) for holding electrical equipment (16);
- a storage recess (11), disposed between the fixing base (3) and the support base (4) of the spacer, the storage recess comprising a first lateral opening (13);
- cable ties (10), disposed in the storage recess (11), and suitable for holding a winding of cable;
- wherein the cable ties enable adjusting the length of the cable (15) by modifying the number of windings, allowing repositioning of the baseplate (1) within the aircraft structure without disconnecting the cable (15);
- and
- a connector support (7), disposed opposite the first lateral opening (13) and provided with a connector locking device (9), the connector locking device being suitable for maintaining a connector (8) secured in the connector support (7) in the absence of the electrical equipment item (16);
- wherein the fixing baseplate (1) is configured to be mounted on the structure of an aircraft and transported with the cable (15) and connector (8) secured in place, prior to installation of the electrical equipment item (16).
