Abstract
A molded electrical junction box may be formed from a high-heat thermoset polyester. The box includes a back wall, a parametrical side wall bounding the back wall and an open front face. The back wall includes an integrally molded rib pattern extending therefrom. The rib pattern increases the thickness of the back wall thereat. The rib pattern is formed to be in direct flow communication with a molding gate during the molding process.
