ABSTRACT:
An electrical mounting device for securing an electrical component or fixture on a wall. The mounting device includes a front plate with an opening therein and a rearward extending portion surrounding the opening. The rearward extending portion may be in the form of a peripheral wall with an open back or a peripheral wall with a rear wall defining an enclosure therein. Bosses with oversize apertures are provided in the plate for accommodating mounting fasteners. Clamp arms are secured rigidly to the ends of the mounting fasteners. The peripheral wall is dimensioned slightly less than the diameter of a standard size hole-saw. The clamp arms can be adjusted to a retracted position for insertion on a wall or to an extended position for securing the electrical mounting device to a wall. The electrical mounting device significantly reduces the time required for mounting an electrical component on a wall.
