Abstract
An electrical floor box assembly for installation in a floor structure includes an electrical floor box having a plurality of sidewalls and at least one clamp device attached to a sidewall so that the floor box may be mounted to a raised floor structure or leveled atop a support surface using the clamp device. The clamp device includes a clamp body, a threaded rod mounted for rotation along a longitudinal axis within the clamp body, and a clamp arm threadingly engaging the threaded rod so that it is movable along the rod in association with rotation thereof and can be moved into engagement with the undersurface of the floor structure to secure the floor box in place. The clamp device may further include a leveling subassembly for installation of the electrical floor box onto a support surface prior to construction of the floor around the leveled floor box.
