Bryant combination cleat and rosette

Bryant Combination Cleat and Rosette.

A device which is both novel and useful has been placed on the market by the Bryant Electric company. It is a cleat and rosette in one, or the combination cleat and rosette, as it is called, and is designed with the view of obtaining uniformity and at the same time complying with the requirements of the underwriters. It is in two pieces. In the one which comes next to the ceiling are the arrangements for making connections to the wire; in the other, or what would be termed the top, the fuse and the drop cord are connected. The accompanying illustration shows the connecting pieces, which are of the K. W. pattern, removed from the top porcelain, and left in the lower or ceiling piece to better illustrate the method by which the two halves of the cleat are fastened together when in use. When taking the cleat apart only the screws nearest the ends are loosened and the projecting brass clips remain fastened to the top porcelain. No brass parts show on the cleat when in place, and it looks, when in position, very similar to any other porcelain cleat which keeps the wires from the ceiling. The western office of the Bryant Electric company, Grier Bros., managers, carries these cleats in stock in Chicago.
