Abstract
A cover for shielding the interior of an electrical wire junction box from foreign material during wall construction. The cover is flexible and has a shape and size approximating that of the interior walls of the junction box housing so that it may be held within the housing in a snug press-fit relationship. The cover has a frangible portion that can be bent back to create a slot for ease in removal of the cover from the junction box housing.
