Eaton 24244 TCS Enclosures - Hinged Surface-Mount, NEMA 1
Part Number: 24244 TCS
Quick Summary
Eaton B-Line series utility enclosures protect electrical gear in commercial, industrial, and data center spaces. Facility teams often struggle with mounting flexibility, door clearance, and vandal-resistant finishes in harsh environments. UL 50, CSA C22.2, and NEMA ratings support safe operation and code compliance across varied locations. Designed for surface mounting with a hinged cover and key locking, these cabinets deliver a secure, accessible solution that reduces installation time and lifecycle costs. The painted ANSI 61 gray finish provides durability and low maintenance, while thru holes enable clean wiring routes and modular expandability for future panel upgrades. These design choices support fast deployment and scalable protection for evolving electrical circuits.

The enclosure uses carbon steel with a 14 gauge wall and a painted finish, delivering rugged protection for indoor electrical equipment. The ANSI 61 gray coating resists fingerprints and incidental corrosion in commercial facilities, offices, and light industrial spaces. This combination translates into lower repainting costs and longer service intervals for critical panels. With a 24 by 24 by 4 inch footprint and a NEMA 1 rating, the cabinet fits standard wall spaces while keeping enclosed gear protected from dust and incidental contact. The medium single-door design simplifies access for routine maintenance and panel upgrades, reducing downtime during inspections. A hinged cover with a continuous piano hinge provides durable operation and a smooth opening experience. The trimmed cover option creates a neat, professional appearance, while the tumbler adds a secure, pick-resistant feature. These details minimize misalignment and wear, helping technicians perform daily checks quickly. Mounting is surface-based with thru holes for versatile fastening options, enabling quick retrofits and reconfiguration as equipment layouts evolve. The 14 gauge shell resists impact and provides a consistent fit with modular panels. The thru-hole design also supports clean wire routing and grounding practices, improving overall electrical safety. Key-locking provisions offer controlled access, reducing tampering risk in shared facilities. The combination of a hinged closure and secure locking helps meet internal control standards while maintaining user-friendly service. This balance of security and usability translates into lower maintenance friction and fewer downtime events. In practice, installers benefit from compatibility with standard Eaton B-Line accessories and straightforward mounting procedures. The surface-mount approach minimizes floor space requirements in crowded equipment rooms and supports scalable configurations as systems grow. For design engineers evaluating enclosure options, the 24244 TCS offers predictable service life, consistent dimensions, and reliable protection against incidental dust, helping meet safety standards while controlling total cost of ownership.

FAQs
The 24244 TCS supports surface mounting with thru holes, enabling flexible installation on walls or in utility spaces. Its 24x24x4 in footprint fits typical electrical room layouts, while the 14 gauge carbon steel shell provides sturdy protection for service equipment. Thru holes accommodate standard mounting hardware and facilitate clean wiring paths, reducing installation time and rework during upgrades.
This enclosure carries UL 50, CSA C22.2, and a NEMA rating of 1. These certifications confirm electrical safety, build quality, and code compliance for indoor environments, aiding vendor qualification and ongoing maintenance. UL 50 ensures enclosure integrity under specified internal conditions, CSA C22.2 supports Canadian installations, and NEMA 1 provides dust and light protection for non-hazardous interiors.
NEMA 1 rating indicates interior protection suitable for dry, non-hazardous environments. For outdoor or harsh environments, consider enclosures with higher NEMA ratings or weather-sealing options. The 14 gauge carbon steel shell with ANSI 61 gray paint focuses on indoor durability and corrosion resistance in controlled spaces.
Security is addressed with key locking provisions and a tumbler, along with a hinged closure for controlled access. The rugged construction and trim-capable cover support tamper resistance while maintaining easy service access, helping facilities meet internal controls without sacrificing maintenance efficiency.
The 24244 TCS offers long service life due to its 14 gauge carbon steel construction and durable painted finish, reducing repainting and corrosion-related downtime. Quick installation via surface mounting and thru holes lowers commissioning time, while secure access minimizes tampering risks. These factors contribute to lower total cost of ownership over the enclosure’s lifecycle.
