Abstract

An electrical receptacle with an open corner region facilitates electrical connection between an electrical device positioned in the receptacle and a conduit, cable or like wiring that passes through the open corner region. The open corner region is defined by a side wall, top face and rear wall of the receptacle. The receptacle is particularly adapted for use with electrical devices that include a connector that aligns with the open corner region, e.g., an access point.
