Abstract A device for supporting and stabilizing an electrical outlet junction box comprising a unitary styrofoam supporting block having an indented channel disposed along one lateral face, an adhesive means for attaching the styrofoam block to the junction box back and a supporting bar adhesively attached to the junction box and disposed through the styrofoam block channel, the bar acting to laterally support the junction box between supporting wall studs. The device is coupled to the junction box when the box is mounted in a wall by adhesively attaching the pre-cut styrofoam block so that the junction box is supported by the styrofoam block to the adjacent back wall portion while the lateral support bar is cut and sized to rigidly support the junction box laterally between the wall studs.
A device for supporting an electrical outlet junction box within a walled enclosure comprising: lightweight supporting block means, said block having a groove disposed along one surface; an adhesive means disposed on the face having said groove coupling said block to the back of said junction outlet box.
