Eaton Specification Sheet - 504A-C1
Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight and enhances corrosion resistance, helping installers handle boxes more easily and reducing maintenance costs in damp or outdoor environments. This alloy choice also supports long-term reliability in non-hazardous locations where exposure to moisture is common, ensuring the enclosure remains a stable mounting point for control components. The alloy choice simplifies disposal and minimizes field corrosion concerns, improving overall lifecycle performance. IP66 protection guards against dust and high-pressure water exposure, enabling dependable operation in wash-down areas and outdoor sites. The through-feed design with a 1/2" trade size entry and 1-1/2" depth delivers flexible wiring options without requiring additional adapters or accessories, accelerating installation and reducing field modification time. Surface mounting accommodates quick, clean installation along walls or equipment frames, while the 3.31" height, 3.31" length, and 1.5" width fit typical panel footprints and simplify layout planning. A lightweight 0.7 lb body further reduces handling stress for technicians on busy job sites. With NEC/CEC standards alignment and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations classification, the 504A-C1 helps meet regulatory expectations for general enclosures used in factories and warehouses, avoiding unnecessary specialty certifications and streamlining procurement. Its Pauluhn lineage supports consistent stocking and familiar mounting patterns, improving reorder confidence and bin stocking at maintenance facilities. The copper-free aluminum through-feed, surface-mount Pauluhn 504 series design provides predictable performance across projects, from retrofit installations to new builds.

FAQs
The 504A-C1 uses a 1/2 inch trade size entry and supports through-feed wiring with a 1-1/2 inch depth, enabling flexible entry configurations without adapters. This makes it suitable for general-purpose control panel wiring in compact spaces while maintaining IP66 protection and surface mounting capability for quicker, reliable installations.
IP66 protection guards against dust and powerful water jets, making the enclosure suitable for wash-down areas and outdoor sites. During installation, verify gasket integrity, ensure seals on every entry, and follow NEC/CEC guidelines for enclosure clearances. Use mounting hardware appropriate for outdoor or damp environments to maintain seal performance.
The 504A-C1 is IP66 protected and built with copper-free aluminum, but it is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations rather than explosion-proof or marine-specific conditions. For marine or extreme exposure, verify additional corrosion considerations and enclosure compatibility. In typical factory or warehouse settings, this enclosure provides durable, maintenance-friendly service.
The enclosure meets NEC/CEC standards and is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, ensuring code compliance for general electrical enclosures. The IP66 rating adds dust and water ingress protection, while the surface-mount design supports standard installation practices. This combination supports regulatory acceptance and minimizes risk in general-purpose control panel wiring.
Copper-free aluminum reduces weight and improves corrosion resistance, cutting handling time and maintenance costs in damp or outdoor environments. It also avoids copper-related corrosion concerns near wiring, helping sustain reliability in non-hazardous locations. When paired with IP66 protection, this material choice delivers a durable, easy-to-service enclosure for general industrial applications.
