Zusammenfassung:A hinge assembly for an enclosure for electrical apparatus includes a hinge pin non-rotationally fixed to either the door or the door jamb. A hinge housing is secured to the other of the door and the door jamb and clamps the hinge pin with a compression fit. The housing includes an angle member forming an internal corner and a clamping member having clamping flanges forming at least one, and preferably a pair, of spaced apart, external corners with corner recesses smaller in radius than the hinge pin in which the hinge pin is received and wedged into the internal corner of the angle member. Clamp tabs on the clamping flanges are secured to one of the flanges on the angle member such as by rivets to produce the compression fit. An elongated flat body on the clamp member and a mounting flange on the angle member abut and are secured to the other of the door and door jamb by common mounting fasteners.
