Abstract
A building electrical system provides electrical mounting plates which are embedded inside of building walls and covered by a finishing panel which electrically isolates the electrical mounting plate from the exposed surface of the finishing panel. The electrical mounting plates provide power to low voltage electrical fixtures such as motorized window coverings and allow the fixtures to be mounted and operated without external wiring.
Claims20
An electrical system comprising:
- a first electrical mounting plate located inside of a building wall at a first location;
- an electrically insulating wall finishing panel covering the first electrical mounting plate and isolating the first electrical mounting plate electrically from an exposed surface of the wall;
- a first electrical distribution wire electrically connected to the first electrical mounting plate, the first electrical distribution wire extending through the building wall and providing electrical power to the first electrical mounting plate;
- a building electrical fixture mounted to the wall adjacent the electrical mounting plate;
- a first screw which passes through the wall finishing panel and is fastened to the first electrical mounting plate, wherein the first screw transmits electrical power from the first electrical mounting plate to the building electrical fixture.
