ABSTRACT:
A junction box cover for installing in an access port. The access port has an outer member with an inner surface and an upper surface, an inner member with an inside surface, a support surface, and a keyway. The junction box cover includes a ring and a junction box lid. The lid includes a first disc with a contact surface and a resting surface. The contact surface abuts the inner surface of the outer member and the resting surface is supported by the upper surface of the inner member when the cover is installed in the access port. The lid also includes a second disc that is integrally formed with the first disc and has an outer surface that abuts the inside surface of the inner annular member when the cover is installed in the access port. The lid further includes at least one extension integrally formed with the second disc and protruding therefrom for insertion through the keyway such that the cover non-threadably engages the access port. The cover allows for various thickness of flooring material and a positive insertion and securing into the access port.
