ABSTRACT:
A wire management knockout closure (92) associated with a knockout opening (86) in a wire receiving enclosure (84), includes a body section (94) adapted to traverse the knockout opening (86), a grippable portion (96) at an inwardly facing end, and a wire holding portion at an outwardly facing end (98) of the body section when the knockout closure (92) is disposed in the opening (86). The closure (92) further includes a retention section, which in cooperation with the knockout opening (86) removably retains the closure (92) in the knockout opening (86). When the closure (92) is in position, the wire holding portion extends exteriorly of the electrical enclosure (84) and is secured to the wire portions (76). When the closure (92) is pulled inwardly from the opening (86), portions of the wires (76) held thereby are likewise pulled into the enclosure for performance of worksteps thereon.
