Questions & Answers
The runway for the clamp is just a hair short of being able to handle a standard drywall + osb thickness, is there a version of this product that could handle this thickness?
If you have access to a stud, consider using part number B249B. This box works for both new and old work applications. If you remove the side mounting tab, you gain additional flexibility by fastening the box directly to the stud with screws.
Can you use divider plate with this
This box does not accept a divider plate. Please consider part number B249B which accepts divider plate part number SCDIVS.
Cut out dimension, 4 x 4 box old work
Cut dimensions are 3.71" (H) by 3.96 (W)
What size is the KO? Is this big enough for 3 3-conductor #6 NM?
The KO on this box is 1/2", which accepts a 3/8 Connector. You would need to make sure that brand connector you use allows for a #6 wire.
Can this box be used as a junction box as well?
Yes, this box can be used as a junction box as long it stays exposed.
Will this work with a NEMA 14-50?
Yes, this product is generally suitable for NEMA 14-50 outlets, as it's designed for non-metallic sheathed cable and has enough capacity for wiring and devices.
How do I secure a blank cover plate to this box? The only screw holes that line up are the ones used by the box’s clamps, but even those results in the cover being cockeyed.
You have to purchase a two gang blank cover. And the holes for the cover will line up with the holes for the devices on the box.
What size is the round knock-out in the back of the box?
The round knockout is 1/2".
