Abstract

An electrical fixture (10) having a front side (24) and aback side (30) and defining longitudinal (20a), lateral (20b), and transverse directions (20c) substantially orthogonal to one another. The electrical fixture (10) may include a body (16), a flange (18), and at least one anchor (14). The body (16) may have at least one terminal (16) extending laterally to the exterior thereof. The flange (18) may extend laterally and longitudinally from the body (16) to substantially preclude transverse access to the terminal (26) from the front side (24) of the electrical fixture (10). The at least one anchor (14) may transversely extend from the flange (18) to provide securement with a connection box (12).
