FAQs
TP116 supports NM cable with clamps and features a single 1/2 in bottom knockout plus two cable knockouts, enabling straightforward ingress for standard branch wiring. For installation, mount the steel box using the included ears, align with enclosure panels, and secure with appropriate hardware. Ensure the enclosure is rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations per NEC/CEC, and connect conductors per applicable wiring methods.
Yes, TP116 is gangable and sized for multi-box configurations. It provides 10 cubic inches of internal volume, which accommodates typical splices and terminations without crowding. In multi-gang layouts, plan the termination routes carefully and use NM clamps to maintain secure, code-compliant wiring while maximizing space efficiency.
The TP116 is designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations as defined by NEC/CEC. It is ideal for electrical panels, junction boxes, and control enclosures in manufacturing floors, assembly lines, and process environments where a rugged, steel enclosure is preferred for durability and consistent performance.
TP116 aligns with NEC/CEC standards and is supported by UL documentation for steel switch boxes. Canada and United States listings are referenced in UL certification reports, ensuring compliance for both markets. Always verify the latest UL pages to confirm current certification scope for your specific project and 지역 requirements.
The TP116 combines a compact 10 cu in capacity with gangable steel construction and convenient NM clamps, reducing the need for additional adaptors and making field wiring faster. Its durable build minimizes maintenance costs, lowers replacement frequency, and accelerates panel assembly timelines in standard industrial environments.
