Abstract
An electrical junction box includes a box enclosure having an open face supporting a pair of downwardly extending shorter length tabs on its upper edge and a pair of upwardly extending longer tabs on its lower edge. A riser having a base for attachment to a floor track within a wall or partition includes an opening formed therein to define a box mounting portion of the riser. The box mounting portion of the riser further includes a pair of upper slots having a spacing therebetween corresponding to the spacing between the upper tabs of the junction box. The box mounting portion of the riser further includes a pair of lower slots having a spacing therebetween corresponding to the upwardly extending lower tabs of the junction box. The slots are formed as generally rectangular punched U-shaped members having rear surfaces which define respective apertures therein. The upper tabs and lower tabs of the junction box define corresponding apertures. The junction box is assembled to the rear surface of the riser in a sliding attachment and secured following sliding attachment assembly by one or more conventional fasteners.
