ABSTRACT:
An outlet box (the term "outlet box" is also intended to encompass a junction box) mounting bracket has four groups of slots arranged to accept the shanks of the mounting screws of either a standard small size outlet box or a standard large size outlet box. The bracket includes a portion adapted to be secured to a stud and a front wall with a central opening which registers with the interior of the outlet box. The four groups of slots are substantially at four corners of the central opening. Enhanced support strength is obtained by providing elongated formed depressions on at least one and preferably on at least two opposed edges of the front wall.
