Abstract: The stud bracket is used for mounting an electrical wiring box on a stud, particularly a metal stud. The bracket is made of a single sheet of a hand-deformable material. It comprises two initially flat leg portions which are initially provided in an L-shaped configuration. The first leg portion features a lateral strip used to either grip an edge of a metal stud or serve as a positioning guide. The second leg portion comprises an outer section surrounding an elongated inner strip that is delimited by a continuous cut leaving only an end of the inner strip, opposite the first leg portion, integral with the outer section. The bracket is very versatile and allows the electrical wiring box to be connected without tools to various positions on a wide variety of studs.

Abstract: A support for mounting an electrical device box into an opening made in a panel. This support has an elongated bar-shaped member longer than the device box and two L-shaped members coplanar to and projecting from one side of the bar-shaped member. The distance between each one of the opposite ends of the bar-shaped member and the remote point of this bar-shaped member from which the remote L-shaped member projects is substantially equal to the height of the electrical box. In use, one can easily insert the bar-shaped member behind the panel through the opening made in the panel by first introducing one of the opposite ends of the bar-shaped member into the opening and moving this one end until the adjacent L-shaped member contacts the panel. Then, the support can be rotated so that the other opposite end of the bar-shaped member passes through the opening, such being possible because of the above mentioned distance selection.

Abstract: A clamp for use to fix nonmetallic sheathed or armored cables within an electrical device box. This clamp has an L-shaped body with a forwardly projecting front wall and an upwardly projecting rear wall. The front wall has a central hole and a rectilinear front edge of a given length that is parallel to the rear wall. An integral U-shaped element projects from the front edge of the L-shaped body along the full length of it. Two upwardly embossed portions are made in the front wall. These portions are symmetrical with respect to the central hole and each has a semi-cylindrical cross-section with an axis perpendicular to the rear wall. Each embossed portion ends at a short distance from the rear wall and defines therewith a locking ridge. Two front openings are made in the front wall at the junction of the embossed portions with the front edge of the body.
