Abstract: A fixture box for a light fixture or the like is disclosed. An input port accessible from the exterior of the housing is provided to receive and terminate an incoming electrical power source cable. An output port accessible from the exterior of the housing is also provided to provide electrical power to another fixture. A light fixture port accessible from the interior of the housing provides an electrical connection between the incoming power and the light fixture. Enclosed hot, neutral and ground buss portions are provided to make electrical connections and provide electrical power between the input port to the output port and to the fixture port. The fixture box also lowers labor costs due to the quick termination of the Q-CEB to the snap in connection at the ports.

Abstract: An enclosure for wiring devices such as switches and receptacles is provided. A housing member has a main front chamber, a main rear chamber and a central dividing wall separating the front chamber from the rear chamber. The housing has an open front leading to the front chamber. The rear chamber is divided into a plurality of electrical feed ports through which electrical power is provided to and may be taken from the enclosure. The feed ports each have an open back providing access to the ports but not to the main front chamber. A front plate member sized to completely cover and seal the open front of said front chamber is permanently attached to the housing to make a fully enclosed factory sealed enclosure in the front chamber. The front chamber contains a wiring device. Hot, neutral and ground busses extend between and interconnect the feed ports. These busses have segments extending through the dividing wall and connected to a wiring device.

Enclosed hot, neutral and ground buss portions are provided to make electrical connections and provide electrical power between the input port to the output port and to the fixture port. The fixture box provides greater safety to the end user or homeowner because the bussing of the fixture box is completely enclosed. The fixture box also lowers labor costs due to the quick termination of the Q-CEB to the snap in connection at the ports.

Abstract: A safety filler plug for recessed electrical contacts is provided. The plug includes a pair of spaced apart generally rectangular arm members including a first stationary arm member and a second tab arm member. The first arm member and the second arm member each have an insertion end, an extension end and a middle portion between the insertion end and said extension end. A generally rectangular horizontal barrier member extends between and bridges the middle portions of arm members. The barrier member has an interior surface and exterior surface. A cross bar support member extends between and has cross bar end portions connected to the insertion ends of the arms. A generally triangular brace member having a first side portion connected to the first arm member and a second side portion connected to said exterior surface of said barrier member is also provided.

Abstract: An interconnectable 3-way switch system for electric cable wiring is provided for controlling a fixture. First and second switch enclosures each have an input port and an output port and a toggle switch. Each switch enclosure has a cam having cam arms movable between a first position where the arms electrically connect and close return bus cam contact points of adjacent return bus segments and a second position where the arms electrically connect and close a power bus cam contact point of a power bus segment to a return bus segment. The first switch enclosure has the cam arms in the first position and the second switch enclosure having the cam arms in the second position. Each switch enclosure has a segmented power bus, a segmented second power bus, a segmented return bus and a ground bus extending between input ports and said output ports.

Abstract: A stripping and contact device for an insulation displacement connector is provided. The device has a body which has a cavity therein sized to receive an unstripped end of insulated electrical cable. A lid is pivotally connected to a body and moves around an axis of rotation between and open position and a closed position. Plural metallic contact plates, including a hot contact plate, a neutral contact plate, and at least one ground contact plate, are spaced apart and attached to the lid. When the lid is in open position the contact plates do not extend within said cavity and when the lid in a closed position the contact plates do extend within said cavity. A pair of insulating wedges is provided. A first wedge is juxtaposed between said hot contact plate and a ground contact plate. A second wedge is juxtaposed between a ground contact plate and a neutral contact plate. Angled surfaces on the wedges perform multiple functions during a closing operation of the device.

Abstract: A switch for selectively interconnecting wires of electric cable provides an enclosure having an input port and an output port and a toggle switch. A cam having cam arms is movable between a first position where the arms electrically connect and close contact points of return bus segments and a second position where the arms electrically connect and close contact points of a power bus segment and a return bus segment. A power bus extends in segments between the input port and the output port and has a main contact point selectively opened and closed by the toggle switch. The power bus has a power bus cam contact point selectively opened and closed by the cam. A return bus extends in segments between the input port and the output port and has return bus cam contact points selectively opened and closed by the cam. A ground bus extends between the input port and the output port. A second power bus and an auxiliary cam can be added for various three way switch wiring configurations.

Abstract: This duplex receptacle will be factory installed in its own enclosure and sealed to provide safety and quick mounting. Both outlets can be constantly powered or one of the outlets can be wired for constant power and the other outlet controlled by a switch. Both applications can be performed by the internal bussing of the duplex receptacle and a cam within the receptacle housing. At installation, the installer will set the cam on the back of the receptacle according to the application desired.
