ABSTRACT:
A plastic mounting plate closes a junction box which delivers wires to an alarm unit or emergency light or the like. The mounting plate is connected to the junction box by screws which engage threaded holes provided by the junction box. The mounting plate can be mounted to either a single-wide junction box or a double-wide junction box and provides corresponding holes for connection to either box. An alternate mounting plate for a single-wide junction box is also provided. An alarm device can be connected to the mounting plate directly by screws or by a combination of a single screw and a tab which is received into a slot onto the mounting plate. The mounting plate can be color-coded for a particular alarm service, such as fire, weather warnings, or other emergency condition.
