Cable and box support plate

1. A cable and box support plate for supporting cables comprising rectangular, flat planar plate having a pair of elongated side edges and a pair of end edges with at least one integral cable/conduit support member formed therein, said plate including a central portion with holes for attachment to an electrical box and said at least one support member is located on either side of said central portion, said at least one support member includes a U-shaped prong having a thick base closest to the ends of the plate, wherein said U-shaped prong is bendable at said base perpendicularly from said plate, and wherein said each of said pair of end edges further includes a ridge perpendicularly extending from said plate.

2. The cable and box support plate of claim 1 , wherein said support plate has a perimeter about said support plate and said at least one support member is positioned internally to said perimeter of said support plate.

3. The cable and box support plate of claim 1 , wherein each of said U-shaped prong has a separate thick base which extends between said U-shaped prong and said end edge by material continuity.

4. The cable and box support plate of claim 3 , further including a slot between said end edge and said U-shaped prong.

5. The cable and box support plate of claim 4 , wherein said plate includes a plurality of support members on either side of said central portion.

6. The cable and box support plate of claim 1 , wherein said at least one support member is located between said ridge and said central portion.

7. The cable and box support plate of claim 1 , further including a pair of perpendicularly extending edge stiffeners extending from the perimeter of said plate on either side of each said at least one support member.

8. The cable and box support plate of claim 7 , wherein said pair of edge stiffener is located adjacent to and perpendicular to said ridge.

9. The cable and box support plate of claim 7 , wherein said pair of edge stiffener and said ridge frame said at least one support member about three sides.

10. A cable and box support plate for supporting cables comprising rectangular, flat planar plate with integral cable/conduit support member formed therein, said plate including a central portion with holes for attachment to an electrical box, said support members are located on either side of said central portion, said support member includes a U-shaped prong having a thick base closest to the ends of the plate, wherein said U-shaped prong is bendable at said base perpendicularly from said plate and extends towards said central portion, said support plate further including edge stiffeners about a portion of the perimeter of said plate, said center portion remaining free from edge stiffeners.

11. A cable and box support plate system for supporting cables comprising

two plates with integral cable/conduit support members formed therein, each of said two plates includes a central portion with holes and at least one said support member is located on either side of said central portion, said support members include at least one U-shaped prong having a thick base closest to the ends of the plate, wherein said U-shaped prong is bendable at said base perpendicularly from said plate and said at least one U-shaped prong extending from each of the ends of said plate and extending towards said central portion; and

an electrical box attached to said two plates at the central portion.

12. The cable and box support plate system of claim 11 wherein said two plates are each rectangular in shape and a flat planar member.

13. The cable and box support plate system of claim 11 , wherein each of said two plates further includes a ridge perpendicularly extending from said each of said two plates at either end of said each of said two plates by said at least one support member.

14. The cable and box support plate system of claim 13 , wherein said each of said two support plates has a perimeter about said each of said two support plates and said at least one support member is positioned internally to said perimeter of said each of said two support plates.

15. The cable and box support plate system of claim 14 , wherein each of said at least one U-shaped prong extending from a thick base and said thick base interconnects said U-shaped prong to said each of said two support plates by material continuity.

16. The cable and box support plate system of claim 15 , further including a pair of perpendicularly extending edge stiffeners extending from the perimeter of said each of said two plates on either side of each said at least one support member.

17. The cable and box support plate system of claim 16 , wherein said each of two support plates are perpendicular to the other and adjoin in the center portion.
