Abstract
A junction box for electrical outlets provides a 'U' shaped body defined by vertical side walls and a rear wall. Top and bottom horizontal end walls are pivotally secured to the rear wall by end tabs extending through slots defined in the rear wall adjacent its upper and lower edges. Protuberances and tabs formed by both side walls releasably secure the end walls in operative position therebetween. The 'U' shaped body has resilience to flex outwardly to enable the end walls to pivot inwardly in the box to aid placement of electrical conduit.
