A reinforcement member fits within the electrical box and includes a panel shaped to conform to at least a portion of the bottom wall and one or more standoffs extending toward the open front face of the box. When the reinforcement member is positioned within the box, mounting holes in the bottom wall of the box and reinforcement member are aligned to allow the box to be attached to a building structure.

Disclosed in the present disclosure is an electromagnetic compatibility type cable locking joint. The electromagnetic compatibility type cable locking joint comprises a joint main body, a joint cap, a sealing ring, and a shielding member. The joint main body has a central hole, and an inner step is provided in the central hole. The sealing ring is connected to the end of the joint main body, and a positioning groove is formed between the sealing ring and the inner step. The joint cap is connected to the sealing ring, the shielding member comprises an upper ring, a lower ring, and an arc-shaped elastic piece. A plurality of arc-shaped elastic pieces are uniformly arranged in a circle. The upper end of each arc-shaped elastic piece is formed on the upper ring, and the lower end of each arc-shaped elastic piece is formed on the lower ring.

A utility conduit and related methods of assembling lengths of utility conduit with a mechanical spline connector. The utility conduit includes opposed male and female ends, wherein the male end is slidably insertable into the female end of adjacent conduits. The female end includes one or more circumferential sealing channels into which a seal member is positionable and an internal spline groove that is circumferentially defined inside the conduit.
