Copper-free aluminum construction provides excellent corrosion resistance and reduced weight, improving site durability and installation efficiency; in chemical, marine, or dusty environments this minimizes maintenance costs and downtime. The W-shaped profile and 3/4 in trade size with a 3 in cover opening ensure compatibility with standard conduits and easy cable access, reducing field modification time during panel builds. Compact dimensions of 5.25 in length, 4.38 in height, and 2.88 in width, with a weight of 1.3 lb, enable mounting in tight electrical spaces without sacrificing enclosure integrity or protection. NEC/CEC compliance and area classification Hazardous/Classified Locations, together with NEMA ratings 3, 4, 7, 9, support broad regulatory acceptance across industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and manufacturing. Installation support from Eaton’s IF 1730 instructions and UL certification references simplifies training, audits, and consistent wiring practices, delivering reliable performance and a lower total cost of ownership over the life of the enclosure. This Condulet GUA series box also benefits from compatibility with standard Condulet components, improving supply chain resilience and project scalability for industrial automation and electrical infrastructure.
