That conduit you see is what the romex wire is ran in that powers that outlet below that you mentioned had a blue box behind it when you took the plate off. That blue box is super simple to get out and super simple to replace. They cost maybe $2 at Home Depot. Before you go messing with anything you need to trip the breaker that powers that outlet. Once you have done that, remove the plate and the actual outlet. If you need to completely remove the wires from the outlet you should probably label them somehow so you know how to reconnect them. That blue box is probably nailed to a stud to the left or right of it. You have 2 ways to remove it. One you can use a screwdriver, hammer or crow bar to pry it away from the stud it is nailed to. If that doesn't work you can literally use a flathead screwdriver or chisel, with a hammer and chip the box away until you can remove it completely. Once you have done that you can remove your Pax! The replacement bluebox you get from Home Depot will be slightly different. You will want a retrofit/old work 1 gang electrical outlet box. Here Is a link to the new blue box http://www.homedepot.com/buy/electr...ers-and-mounting-ears-48609.html#.UCV6gfF5mSN if you need help figuring out how to install it someone that works there can show you but it's very easy to install. After you put the new blue box in just retire your outlet, put the plate back on and get to vaping!
