An electrical floor box includes a body having an open top and defining an interior therewithin, a cover flange configured to be mounted on the open top of the body, a cover assembly connected to the cover flange such that it is repositionable between open and closed positions, and a light source assembly arranged within the electrical floor box. The light source assembly includes a magnet attached to a bottom surface of the cover assembly, a magnet reed switch installed on the cover flange, a LED light electrically connected to the magnetic reed switch, and a wiring tunnel configured to hold the LED light therewithin. When the cover assembly is in the open position, the magnet disengages with the magnet reed switch such that the LED light illuminates the interior of the electrical floor box.

A molded electrical junction box may be formed from a high-heat thermoset polyester. The box includes a back wall, a parametrical side wall bounding the back wall and an open front face. The back wall includes an integrally molded rib pattern extending therefrom. The rib pattern increases the thickness of the back wall thereat. The rib pattern is formed to be in direct flow communication with a molding gate during the molding process.

A poke-through device for installation in a hole in a floor structure, the poke-through device including a body defining an interior. The body including a length bounded by an upper end and a lower end, the body including a central axis extending along its length. A mounting frame including a pair of opposed end lobes separated by at least one divider. One of the pair of lobes has a first electrical device mounting surface and the other of the pair of lobes including a second electrical device mounting surface. The first and second electrical mounting surfaces are angled toward the central axis. The first and second electrical device mounting surfaces each including an opening adapted to receive therein an electrical device. A first intumescent member is disposed at the body upper end, and an electrical box is secured to the body lower end. A fire resistant gasket is disposed between the electrical box and the body lower end. The gasket includes openings therein to permit passage of wiring between the electrical box and the body.
