ABSTRACT:
This invention provides an expandable electrical outlet box that fits into the same size wall opening as a removed to be replaced box. The present box, being expandable, provides about double the capacity as a smaller non-expandable box. Thus, more conductors can be provided in the present box using the same space opening as the box being replaced. One section of the box is slidably or movably positioned in a main section of the box, both sections having openings for installing electrical wiring.
