ABSTRACT:
An electrical junction box is formed of two identical, oppositely facing, and reversed members. Each member comprises a base, a plurality of peripheral walls extending from the base which are joined at adjacent ends thereof to form an open interior in the member. The walls of each member extend towards and engage the walls of the other member. Two of the plurality of walls of each member are oppositely disposed with one of the two walls having a projection extending in the direction of the other member and the other of the two walls having a recess disposed for receipt of the projection from the one wall of the other member in positioning the members together with facing interiors forming a closed junction box interior. At least one of the walls, and preferably a wall different from the walls bearing the projection or recess, may have a first aperture for use in mounting the box to a surface, the at least one aperture being located substantially away from the ends of the at least one wall and aligned with a corresponding aperture in a wall of the other member. The base may have a second aperture interiorly of the walls for receiving electrical wiring therethrough into the interior. A device for attaching the members together is also disclosed.
