Abstract

Electrical wiring box arrangements are provided which include an electrical wiring box and a one-piece cable clamp and electrical wiring device mounting member. The clamp and wiring device mounting member is slideably received in slots in the wiring box wall structure and held in placed against a box wall. The clamp and wiring device mounting member is provided with deflective leg portions which clamp an electrical cable passing through a knock-out opening in the wiring box wall structure. The clamp and wiring device mounting member is further provided with a mounting tab for mounting an electrical wiring device within the box and, in a preferred embodiment, with a grounding wire attachment for use particularly with non-metallic wiring box arrangements.
