Abstract: An electrical box extender includes a rectangular tube having a first pair of opposing sides and a second pair of opposing sides. The first pair of opposing sides and the second pair of opposing sides form a perimeter configured to fit within a single-gang electrical box. The electrical box extender also includes a set of flanges extending laterally from a front edge of the first pair of opposing sides. The set of flanges includes a male interlocking flange and a female interlocking flange. The male interlocking flange is configured to attach to another female interlocking flange of a substantially identical electrical box extender.

Abstract: A small round floor box installs through a two inch diameter hole in a floor to provide a small footprint that improves the appearance of the installation and makes it less obtrusive. The box accommodates a single power receptacle or data plugs that attach to mounting plates that snap connect within the box.

Abstract: An electrical utility box is configured to contain an electrical device. The box includes a bottom wall, two opposing side walls, two opposing end walls, a mounting boss, and a shield structure. The mounting boss has a bore configured to receive a fastener that fastens the electrical device to the box. The shielding structure is configured to block an uninsulated wire from contacting a portion of the fastener that protrudes from an open lower end of the bore.

Abstract: A microencapsulatable solvent adhesive composition for coupling plastic conduits, such as pipes, connectors and related fittings comprises a water-insoluble polymer and a mixture of volatile organic solvents for the polymer, each of the solvents having 6 to 40 carbon atoms. This solvent adhesive composition is suitable for microencapsulation by aqueous-based microencapsulation processes. A plurality of microcapsules encapsulating the solvent adhesive composition are bound to a polymeric surface of a conduit, such as a pipe connector or fitting, by a binder composition, to form a surface coated with a layer of rupturable microcapsules. When the microcapsules are ruptured upon joining of the coated conduit to a second conduit, the volume of the released solvent adhesive composition is sufficient to cement the surfaces together.
