Electrical housing knockout device and method

A electrical housing knockout device comprising:

• a bracket having a horizontal side and a vertical side;
• said horizontal side having a top surface and a bottom surface;
• said vertical side having a proximal surface and a distal surface;
• said horizontal side being perpendicularly connected to said vertical side;
• said horizontal side having at least one pin extending from said horizontal side top surface;
• said horizontal side having at least one opening;
• a sleeve element pivotally secured to said horizontal side top surface;
• said sleeve element having a shaft and a base wherein a central opening extends through said shaft and through said base;
• said sleeve element base extends into said at least one opening in said horizontal side;
• said sleeve element having a collar adjacent to said horizontal side and located between said shaft and said base;
• said shaft extending from said collar at a predetermined angle;
• said collar having at least one aperture predeterminedly sized and shaped for movement about said stopper;
• and
• at least one magnet located on said vertical side distal surface for securing said bracket to an interior of a electrical housing.
