Appleton 2555 Flat Handy Box Cover

Product Description

The APPLETON 2555 is a flat cover designed for use with handy boxes, also commonly referred to as utility boxes, in electrical rough-in and finish work. This cover plate mounts flush over a standard handy box to provide a clean, finished surface while protecting the interior connections. It is a standard accessory item installed by licensed electricians on residential and light commercial projects. The flat profile makes it suitable for applications where no device or receptacle needs to be mounted and a blank cover is required.

The 2555 is used in residential and light commercial electrical installations wherever a handy box requires a blank cover. Typical applications include covering unused junction points, protecting wiring inside handy boxes mounted on exposed surfaces such as concrete block, conduit systems, or framed walls. It is commonly installed by electricians working with surface-mounted raceway or conduit wiring systems.
