Abstract: A non-gangable electrical outlet box which includes a pair of side walls with raised portions on the exterior surfaces. The raised portions have a pair of holding prongs, a pair of positioning tabs and at least one depression having a bottom surface and an aperture. The bottom surface of the depression is angularly disposed to the raised portion to facilitate insertion of a screw in the aperture though the front opening of the outlet box. The top wall, the bottom wall and the side walls are attached to each other and to the rear wall with at least one weld to form the outlet box.

Abstract: An electrical outlet box having a generally rectangular box having a back wall, a perimetrical side wall surrounding the back wall defining an open front face and a box interior, the side wall comprised of a first and second set of generally parallel spaced apart wall portions, outwardly directed flanges extending from one set of parallel wall portions adjacent the open front face; and fastening structures integrally formed with and attached to the flanges for rigidly mounting the electrical outlet box to a structural member.

Abstract: A mounting formation for an electrical outlet box includes a dome and a flap. The dome has a base that is formed within an opening. The base is connected to the wall of the electrical outlet box and the flap is connected to the dome within the opening to cover a first portion of the opening while defining a second portion that is uncovered and crescent shaped. The mounting formation facilitates the installation of electrical outlet box, boxes without the need to separately remove a knock-out prior to the installation of fasteners.

Abstract: An electrical outlet box having a rear wall parametrically bound by an orthogonally extending sidewall terminating at a rim defining an opening in the outlet box. The sidewall includes a generally planar mounting surface adapted to be abutted against a structural support. The mounting surface includes an aperture centrally disposed between a pair of prongs, and the prongs being securable within the support structure for temporarily securing the outlet box thereto without the need for a fastener. The aperture is adapted to receive a fastener for operatively securing the outlet box to the support structure.

Abstract: An electrical outlet box assembly provides for the divided accommodation of various voltages of wires and termination devices. The outlet box assembly includes a box housing having a back wall, a perimetrical side wall surrounding the back wall which defines an open front face and a box interior. The back wall includes a plurality of removable ground screws threadedly attached to the back wall. A box divider is insertable into the box interior through the front face. The box divider includes a planar divider wall and a transverse mounting bracket extending from edge thereof. The transverse bracket includes an aperture for allowing mounting of the divider to the back wall of the box using one of the ground screws. The divider wall includes at least one frangible end portion for adjusting the length of the wall.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a protector plate that can be readily secured to furring strips in a manner that reduces and/or eliminates any bowing or deflection of the furring strip during installation. This protector plate is to be located on the furring strip so that its face panel is positioned to protect any service component located there behind from nails, screws or other anchors that may be subsequently driven into the wall. The protector plate contains a front panel having a flange secured thereto with prongs, tabs, sawteeth or other securing assembly jutting or extending from this flange. This securing assembly is designed to penetrate the furring strip along its stronger axis.
