Claim 11:
12. A method of covering an electrical panel, the method comprising the steps of:
providing an electrical panel cover fastening system including:
a disc including an outer surface, a first inner surface, a second inner surface, and a side surface, the outer surface disposed on a first plane, the first inner surface disposed on a second plane, the first plane disposed substantially parallel with the second plane, the second inner surface disposed on a third plane, each of the first inner surface and the second inner surface disposed adjacent to one another, wherein the third plane is oriented substantially transverse to each of the first plane and the second plane,
a post including a first end and a second end, the post disposed on a first axis, the first end of the post disposed on the first inner surface of the disc, the post configured to be disposed through an aperture in a panel cover, and
a raised edge disposed between each of the second plane and the third plane, the raised edge including a first wall and a second wall, the first wall disposed on a fifth plane and the second wall disposed on a sixth plane, the fifth plane oriented transverse to the sixth plane;

providing a panel cover with an aperture formed therethrough;
providing a panel back box with an opening that includes an edge;
disposing the electrical panel cover fastening system through the aperture of the panel cover;
placing the panel cover against the opening of the panel back box; and
