Abstract: A template device and method of using same, the template device includes: a substantially planar member defining a plurality of channels therein; wherein, the channels at least partially define a plurality of concentric shapes each corresponding to a known electrical box configuration, respectively. The device may include at least one leveling indicator such as a leveling bubble container. The device may include a stud finding device, or means for attaching to a stud finding device. The device may be integrated with, or include means for attaching to, a sheet rock square.

Abstract: A template device and method of using same, the template device including: a substantially planar member defining a plurality of channels therein; wherein, the channels at least partially define a plurality of concentric shapes each corresponding to a known electrical box configuration, respectively. The method includes positioning a template defining a plurality of channels at least partially defining a plurality of concentric shapes each corresponding to a known electrical box configuration, respectively, at least substantially adjacent to walling material; selecting a subset of the channels corresponding to one of the defined shapes and the electrical box to be received; and, creating an opening in the walling material dependently upon the selected subset of channels.
