A moisture-proof flashing panel mount for an electrical connector box to be disposed within a building structure wall when such a box has a shaped border defining an exteriorly accessible opening into which electrical wiring eventually is directed. The mount is a generally flat and generally rigid moisture-impermeable panel having therethrough an exteriorly projecting lipped opening defining a frame having an interior frame surface. This interior frame surface is complimentary in shape to the shaped border of the connector box and is sized to allow the shaped border to reside by friction fit within the frame. The remainder of the panel is disposed lateral to the frame and is effectively covered with wall finishing material such as lath paper and stucco which is applied to also surround the outer wall of the exteriorly projecting lip that forms the frame. As is apparent, the installation above-described completely prohibits any moisture entry around and into the building-structure wall within which the electrical connector box is situated, with such moisture entry prohibition continuing for the life of the building structure.
