Abstract

An electrical floor box having more than four outlets around a central access area. Each outlet has a wiring compartment formed from interlocking partitions with only the rear of each wiring compartment formed from the perimeter walls of the box. The partitions interlock through the use of a tab and slot system. A wire tunnel is positioned at the bottom of the central access area of the box and is formed from two pieces to enable easy removal of the wire tunnel and to facilitate access to the wires therein.
