Abstract: A protective cover for electrical and communication boxes, which prevents the box from being covered by paneling. The cover is substantially in shape of a protrusion, extending outward ¾ of an inch past the outer lip of the box. The said cover is strongly but removably attached to said box with fasteners that enter the cover through recessed holes in said cover and get attached within the box by using generic holes that are ordinarily used for attaching hardware normally present in such said box.
