Abstract
An electrical housing apparatus has an electrically non-conductive enclosure with side and end walls. One of the end walls has an opening to receive an electrical conduit and the other walls are un-perforated. An electrically conductive frame is mounted inside the enclosure, the frame being arranged to support electrical devices is a specific vertical orientation and provide ground bonding between the conduits and electrical devices in the housing. Mounting brackets at opposite ends of the frame have openings either of which can be aligned with the end wall opening when the frame is placed in the enclosure, depending on the orientation of the enclosure: the end wall with the opening can be at the top to accommodate a top conduit connection or at the bottom to accommodate a bottom conduit connection. A water-resistant cover closes the front of the box, the cover and frame being arranged to have a single orientation regardless of which enclosure orientation is used.
