Patent attributes
Simplified, easy-to-use electrical utility box positioning jig assemblies (10, 54) are provided including an elongated, upright standard (16) having opposed, generally flat, front and rear surfaces, and a support (18, 56) positionable along the length of the standard (16) and operable to hold a utility box (12, 58) during attachment thereof to a structural member (44). In one embodiment, the support (18) is generally C-shaped and is designed to hold a utility box (12) commonly used in residential construction. Alternately, a C-shaped support (56) may be used having permanent magnets (80), in order to hold a metallic utility box (58) used in commercial construction. The standard (16) is designed for direct, face-to-face contact with a structural member (44), and is slotted to allow selective placement of the associated box holder (18, 56).
