ABSTRACT:
A support for an electrical box, comprising a bar to be mounted between two spaced-apart wall studs or the like. The bar comprises an elongate web of sheet metal forming a front face of the bar and having side edges extending lengthwise of the bar, a pair of flanges extending rearwardly from the side edges of the web, and a forwardly-opening channel formed in the web running substantially the full length of the web between the side edges of the web. The channel has spaced apart side walls extending rearwardly from the front face of the web, a bottom wall connecting the side walls and forming the bottom of the channel, and pilot holes spaced along the bottom wall of the channel at relatively closely spaced and regular intervals whereby an electrical box may be attached to the bar in a selected position lengthwise of the bar by placing the back wall of the box flush against the front face of the web over the channel and then fastening the box to the bar by using fasteners threaded through selected pilot holes in the bottom wall of the channel.
