  • Junction box support for suspended ceilings
    Patent number: 5316254
    Abstract: Supports for a junction box in a suspended ceiling. Two supports comprised of two, four-sided pieces of metal the length of a ceiling panel are secured to the suspended ceiling frame and to the sides of a junction box so that the junction box is held in position securely. The support also resists upward movement of the ceiling panel so that it does not rise when the light fixture is fastened to the junction box.
