ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment the attachment is in the form of a box extender comprising a top wall, a bottom wall and side walls defining a ring of the same general dimensions as the junction box. The extender includes plate portions within the ring and through which screws extend to secure the extender to the box. In another embodiment the attachment comprises a cover having walls defining a ring of the same general dimensions as the box and adapted for securement to the box by the abutment of the peripheral edges of its walls to those of the box. A projecting post is located in each corner and each projects slightly beyond the plane of the peripheral edge of the walls and into firm abutment with the underlying bracket plate when the cover is secured to the box to preclude the plates in the box from being pulled from their support members.
