Abstract
A temporary cover is provided for protecting the contents of electrical boxes during wall construction. The box can include the cover as a temporary attachment that bends into place and is torn away when finished. The cover can also be a stand-alone component that press fits into the box and has means for removal from the box, such as a tab on one side, or an aperture sized to receive at least a finger. The cover can also have a fin to engage with slot rails within the electrical box. Constructing a wall includes mounting the box within the wall, adding wiring within the box, covering the box with the temporary cover, finishing the wall, then removing the cover and replacing it with the permanent box cover.
