Steel construction provides rugged durability and corrosion resistance, translating to longer service life and lower maintenance costs in harsh industrial environments. The 18 cubic inch capacity ensures ample room for terminations and wire management, reducing the need for oversized chassis and speeding up panel assembly. The gangable design supports scalable installations, enabling quick expansion in control cabinets without swapping enclosures. Multiple knockouts—including end, side, and bottom 1/2 inch openings—and 2 cable knockouts streamline conduit routing and simplify field wiring, cutting installation time. AC/MC clamps are included, improving conductor security and reducing retrofit needs. Ears for mounting and a steel body deliver reliable grounding paths and robust mechanical strength, while NEC/CEC compliance helps satisfy code-driven procurement. This enclosure is ideal for standardizing steel switch boxes across projects, improving supply chain efficiency and reducing lifecycle costs.
