Abstract
An electrical box having an enclosure and a conduit hub adapter that is configured to engage a portion of the enclosure. The enclosure defines an opening that is configured to receive an electrical power conductor. The conduit hub adapter is movable with respect to the enclosure from a disengaged position to an engaged position. A retainer may be positioned adjacent the opening to engage the conduit hub adapter when in the engaged position and secure the conduit hub adapter to the enclosure. The conduit hub adapter may be configured for engagement with the enclosure in a single orientation. The retainer may be configured so that it may only be disengaged from the conduit hub adapter from within an interior space of the enclosure. The enclosure may have a second opening with a second conduit hub adapter configured to engage the enclosure adjacent the second opening.
