I’ve used this type of electrical box on my houses whenever I needed to add or replace exiting receptacles. Be aware that there are different depths of these boxes. Easy to use and makes excellent snug fitting when installed correctly. Great invention.
The prices went up so shop around
Would RecommendSome of them look like they have burn spots so I had to dig around to find the ones that didn’t
Good box
Would RecommendNo fuss old work box. The only solution for mounting without a stud. Better than the fiberglass boxes which can crack.
