ABSTRACT:
An electrical box support for supporting an electrical box or other like device in a studded wall. The box support comprises a horizontal strut having a centrally located outwardly opening horizontally extending V-shape channel and a pair of legs formed at each end thereof. The purpose of the V-shape channel is to facilitate horizontal positioning or alignment of such boxes, to facilitate fastening, and also to strengthen the strut. Separating each leg of a leg pair is a cut-out which allows each of the legs to flex and bend independent of the other. To rigidify further and strengthen the box support, the invention further provides a pair of flanges or ribs formed along the lateral edges of the horizontal strut.
