ABSTRACT:
A mounting bracket assembly including a mounting bracket and an outlet box having a mounting member. The mounting bracket includes a plate member having an opening adapted to receive the outlet box and a support member extending laterally from the plate member at an edge of the opening. A tab member is affixed to one of the mounting member and the support member and engages the other thereof. One of the mounting member and support member also includes a raised portion which slidably engages the other member during insertion of the outlet box so as to bias the mounting member away from the support member until the raised portion is brought into locking engagement with the other member. A method for installing an outlet box includes providing a wall panel with a mounting bracket installed internally therein, cutting an opening in a wall member of the panel in alignment with the opening in the plate member, and inserting an outlet box having a mounting member such that the tab member engages one of the support member and mounting member and the raised portion slidably engages one of the support member and mounting member during insertion so as to bias the members away from each other until the raised portion is brought into locking engagement with the other of the members.
