Abstract
A through wall electrical device including a high voltage electrical box having a rear surface and a low voltage electrical box, an electrical receptacle or an electrical plug having a rear wall and positioned in the high voltage electrical box, and wherein the rear wall extends beyond the rear surface of the high voltage box.
Claims16
A through wall electrical device comprising:
- an upper high voltage electrical box, an upper low voltage electrical box, a lower high voltage electrical box, and a lower low voltage electrical box;
- the upper and lower high voltage electrical boxes having a straight perimeter wall surface;
- the upper and lower low voltage electrical boxes having a straight perimeter wall surface;
- wherein the upper high voltage electrical box straight perimeter wall surface and the upper low voltage electrical box straight perimeter wall surface are positioned adjacent each other upon installation and together form a generally round upper electrical box;
- wherein the lower high voltage electrical box straight perimeter wall surface and the lower low voltage electrical box straight perimeter wall surface are positioned adjacent each other upon installation and together form a generally round lower electrical box;
- and,
- a hollow tube connecting the upper low voltage electrical box and the lower low voltage electrical box.
