Appleton 383 2-inch Deep Nmc Switch Box

Product Description

The APPLETON 383 is a 2-inch deep non-metallic cable (NMC) switch box designed for residential and light commercial electrical rough-in work. It provides a secure, code-compliant enclosure for standard toggle switches and other single-gang wiring devices. The box is constructed for use with non-metallic sheathed cable installations and is sized to meet box-fill requirements for typical branch-circuit device rough-in. Licensed electricians and qualified electrical contractors install this box during the framing and rough-in phase of construction or renovation projects.

The APPLETON 383 is used in residential new construction, remodel wiring, and light commercial applications where non-metallic cable wiring methods are specified. It fits standard single-gang switch locations in interior wall cavities and is suited for use with common switch and receptacle devices that require adequate box depth for proper conductor management and fill compliance.

Key Features

• 2-inch depth provides additional box fill capacity for branch-circuit conductors
• Non-metallic cable (NMC) rated construction suited for residential and light commercial wiring
• Single-gang configuration fits standard switch and device locations
• Lightweight design at 0.130 pounds for easy handling during rough-in

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) requirements for box fill, support, and mounting. De-energize all circuits at the panel before making any wiring connections. Secure the box to framing members per NEC mounting requirements and verify conductor fill does not exceed the calculated box-fill capacity before closing the device.
