Stove Receptacle mount
ReportQuestion
Please briefly explain why you feel this question should be reported.
I have a new stove that has a plug, but the house is hard wired. I bought a stove receptacle and a metal box. I ran my wires to my new box everything seems to be hooked up right. My question is, do I have to mount that box to the wall, or can I just lay it on the floor?

Yeah you can if you like. Just make sure it’s not in the way when you push the stove back. You can always remove the bottom drawer to make sure and to help guide the wires.
