ABSTRACT:
A multi-gangable outlet box is assembled from one or more main housing elements and two lateral members, which close off the sides of the outlet box. The individual members are connected to one another by engaging snap latches with corresponding receiving slots. The snap latches and the slots are disposed diagonally across one another on the main housing element. If the main housing member is rotated by 180.degree., therefore, the same configuration of tabs and slots results.
