A bracket for supporting electrical nonmetallic tubing has axially aligned large and small spring clips for receiving and retaining large and small diameter tubing. A plurality of side-by-side pairs of the spring clips are arranged with the large and small spring clips in one pair reversely positioned relative to the large and small spring clips in an adjacent pair. Some clips are configured for attaching ties thereto that extend over a tube to hold the tube in the clip. The bracket has support legs for engaging a support surface, and fastener receiving extensions for attaching the bracket to the support surface.

Conduit support

An electrical box having spring legs for supporting the box within a space between a pair of spaced-apart parallel concrete forms. The legs engage the inside surface of one form and bias the open end of the box against the inside surface of the other form. The legs and the bottom of the box are cooperatively configured to facilitate attachment of the legs to the box. A bendable strap is attached to the box for wrapping around reinforcing bars within the forms. The legs and strap hold the box in position when concrete is poured into the space between the forms. The entire box and support elements remain embedded within the finished concrete wall, and with the open end of the box exposed at an outer surface of the concrete wall.

Electrical box support

A fitting for attaching ENT tubing to a concrete form has an inverted cup-like configuration with a bottom opening and an internal cavity within a fitting wall. A flange extends outwardly from the fitting wall around the bottom opening and has fastener-receiving holes for attaching the fitting to a plane surface of a concrete form. A socket extends through the fitting wall into the cavity for receiving an end portion of an ENT tube. The socket has a plurality of circumferentially-spaced resilient fingers that are inclined inwardly toward the socket axis for gripping an ENT tube. A pair of opposite fingers have teeth that are receivable in an annular groove in an end portion of a corrugated ENT tube. The teeth have rounded ends to facilitate ratcheting movement of the ENT tube end portion both into and out of the socket.

Fitting for ENT tubing

A square electrical box molded in one-piece of plastic material has three connectors extending outwardly from each box sidewall for receiving different sizes of electrical nonmetallic tubing. The box internal corners are occupied by bosses that extend the full height of the corners and have fastener receiving holes therein. Attachment ears extend outwardly from the box, and an adapter attachable to a front surface of the box has attachment ears aligned with the box ears. Fastener receiving holes through the ears are configured to receive fasteners that are inwardly inclined toward the box central longitudinal axis.

Mud box and adapters

A square electrical box molded in one-piece of plastic material has three ENT connectors extending outwardly from each box sidewall. The connectors on each sidewall include a middle connector and two outer connectors. All of the middle connectors are sized for receiving one-half inch standard trade size ENT conduit. Both of the outer connectors one pair of opposite sidewalls are sized for receiving three-quarter inch standard trade size ENT conduit. The other pair of opposite sidewalls have one outer connector sized to receive three-quarter inch standard trade size ENT conduit and another outer connector sized to receive one-inch standard trade size ENT conduit. The box has attachment ears extending outwardly from the box corners along diagonal lines that extend across diagonally opposite ones of the box corners. An adapter attached to a front surface of the box has attachment ears aligned with the box ears. Fastener receiving holes through the attachment ears are configured to receive fasteners that are inwardly inclined toward the box central longitudinal axis.

An electrical outlet box having alternative mounting flanges on opposite sides thereof for selectively mounting the box to a front surface of a wall stud or to a side surface of a wall stud. The box and mounting flanges are configured for use of either mounting flange with the box located on either of opposite sides of the wall stud.
