English Abstract

A stand for an electrical box is provided to maintain an electrical box having
at
least one hub a predetermined distance from a concrete form prior to and
during the
concrete being poured. The stand has extensions with ribs thereon at different
longitudinal
positions from the base permitting the electrical box to be supported by the
stand at
different heights with respect to the concrete form to permit access to the
hubs of the
electrical box with electrical tubing and to accommodate concrete slabs of
different
thicknesses using the same height of electrical box. The electrical box and
stand assembly
have a locking mechanism to lock the electrical box to the stand at the
selected
predetermined distance from the form. The locking mechanism has hooks which
engage
indentations on mounting tabs of the electrical box. The mounting tabs have
grooves
which guide the hooks to the indentations. The stand can be attached to the
cement form
during building construction to maintain the electrical box at the
predetermined distance
above the cement form.
