Abstract: An electrical box assembly includes an electrical box structure including an interior defined by a plurality of walls with an aperture formed through one of the walls for providing access to the interior of the box structure. An aperture cover extends over the aperture. The aperture is formed from a resiliently flexible material and includes a slit forming feature for prescribing a location of a slit for selectively providing access to the interior of the electrical box structure. The resiliency of the aperture cover urges the aperture cover to a closed position of the slit to minimize air passage through the aperture cover.

Abstract: An electrical box including a flange produced utilizing a 2-shot molding process and provided as a unitary structure. The flange has a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are substantially co-planar, spaced apart, and generally parallel to a plane defined by an open end of the electrical box when the electrical box is installed into a corresponding wall structure. The flange is self-supporting and flexible to accommodate dimensional and alignment irregularities in a mounting surface. Each of a plurality of knock outs formed in the electrical box has a slit formed therein that retains passed-through cables, as well as closes and returns to an original undisturbed position when the cables are removed to maintain substantially air tight conditions.

Abstract: An electrical box includes an open end providing access to a hollow interior of the electrical box, that is enclosed by a closed end and opposing sidewalls. The electrical box has an angled flange that is integrally molded to create a singular construct formulated from a polymer material. The angled flange is angled along the longitudinal axis relative to the upstanding sides of the electrical box and flattens completely when placed into a final installed position within an aperture within a structure to create a vapor seal between the electrical box and the structure. Also, the polymer material the flange is created from accommodates any small inconsistencies in dimensions, alignment and the like, so as to allow for fast and efficient installation.

Abstract: An electrical box includes a front surface having an opening providing access to a hollow interior of the electrical box, at least one sidewall extending rearwardly from the front surface to form the hollow interior, and a seal disposed on an exterior surface of the at least one sidewall. The seal has a triangular cross-sectional shape including a thin end configured to first enter an opening of a building structure receiving the electrical box therein. A tapered surface of the seal is compressed as the electrical box is received into the opening in the building structure to provide a seal around an exterior surface of the at least one sidewall of the electrical box.

Abstract: An electrical box assembly includes an outer box having a sidewall and a front opening. A sleeve having an inner surface is received in the front opening of the outer box and selectively extendable in respect of the outer box. A mounting plate is disposed on the inner surface of the sleeve. The mounting plate cooperates with the sleeve to selectively position the sleeve in respect of the outer box.

Abstract: An electrical box includes a housing having at least one aperture formed in an exterior surface thereof for providing access to a hollow interior of the electrical box. A cover formed from a resilient material is configured to extend over and conceal the at least one aperture. The cover includes one of an opening or a scored portion for creating an opening formed in an outer surface of the cover. The opening is configured to receive an electrical wire and portions of the cover forming the opening are configured to resiliently constrict about the electrical wire to prevent a flow of fluid through the opening and to secure a position of the electrical wire within the opening.

Abstract: A hole seal is disclosed including a cover having a body with an inner surface and an outer surface and an end portion attached to a first end of the body. The inner surface of the body includes a threaded portion, and the outer surface of the body includes an annular array of ribs disposed thereon. Each of the ribs has a predefined collapsible direction. The end portion includes a seal disposed on a peripheral edge of the end portion. The hole seal further includes a cap having an inner member and an outer portion. The inner member includes a threaded portion that is configured to cooperate with the threaded portion of the inner surface of the body.

Abstract: An electrical box assembly is disclosed including an electrical box having at least one sidewall, the sidewall including an aperture formed therein to receive a threaded fastener. A mounting plate is provided that is attached to a support member and includes an elongate slot formed therein, wherein at least a portion of the slot is aligned with the aperture of the sidewall. A clamp bar abuts the mounting plate and has a threaded aperture formed therein, wherein the fastener extends through the aperture formed in the sidewall and the elongate slot formed in the mounting plate and is threadably received in the aperture formed in the clamp bar to movably attach the electrical box to the mounting plate.

Abstract: An electrical box is disclosed, wherein the electrical box includes a lid hingedly attached to a back wall of the electrical box. The lid is adapted to be selectively moved between an open and a closed position, wherein the lid covers at least a portion of an opening into the interior of the electrical box when in the closed position.

Abstract: An electrical box is disclosed, wherein the electrical box includes a back panel and an insulating material disposed thereon. The insulating material reduces the heat transfer through the back panel of the electrical box.

Abstract: An electrical box is disclosed, wherein the electrical box includes a mounting system that facilitates a repositioning of the electrical box on a mounting structure without a complete removal of fastening devices from the mounting structure.

Abstract: An electrical box with a mounting system is disclosed. The electrical box includes a main body having a back panel with a raised portion and a protuberance formed on an outer surface of the back panel. The mounting tab is configured for mounting the main body to a mounting structure. An electrical box assembly including the mounting tab having a first aperture that receives the protuberance of the main body, and a method for mounting the electrical box on a mounting structure, are also disclosed.

Abstract: An electrical junction box is disclosed for hanging a load such as an electrical fixture or a ceiling fan from a ceiling joist, wherein the junction box includes a substantially planar base member and an adjacent compartment for housing electrical leads, wherein the electrical junction box may be firmly attached to the joist.

Abstract: An electrical box is disclosed for supporting and containing electrical devices and wiring including low voltage devices and wiring such as used for telephones, televisions, computers, and security systems, for example, wherein a rigidity of the box is maximized.

Abstract: A new an improved electrical utility box and flush mounted device box having a flange extending from the box in all directions and a method of adhesively securing the flange to existing boxes. The flange has an upwardly facing surface and a downwardly facing surface which are planar and generally parallel to the bottom of the box. The flange is self supporting and yet flexible enough to accommodate the dimensional and alignment irregularities in construction.

Abstract: An electrical outlet box of all shapes and sizes for use with one or more electrical cables having an enclosure with a peripheral wall and a bottom. The peripheral wall upstands from the bottom and has a plurality of cable openings therein. The cable openings each close by a door. The door is pivotally connected to the bottom for rotary motion from a closed position generally parallel to the wall about an axis generally parallel to the bottom to an open position within the enclosure. The door has a peripheral edge remote from its connection to the bottom which clamps a cable positioned in the box between the wall and the door wall. The door is biased toward the wall and has door guides associated therewith to ensure the movement of the door about the axis and to prevent cable from being lodged between the door and the door guides out of engagement with the peripheral edge of the door.
