Cantex EZ20CH Ceiling Box Bar Hanger 20 Cu in New Work

Product Description

The CANTEX EZ20CH is a 20 cubic inch new-work ceiling box designed for residential electrical installations. It ships with an attached bar hanger for adjustability and added structural support during rough-in. The box accepts standard wire clamps and is intended for new construction framing before drywall is applied. Licensed electricians install this box during the rough-in phase to establish a secure, code-compliant mounting point for ceiling fixtures, fans, or luminaires. The 20 cubic inch interior meets NEC fill-capacity requirements for typical residential ceiling wiring configurations.

The EZ20CH is suited for residential and light commercial ceiling applications where a new-work box is required. The integrated bar hanger spans between joists, allowing positioning without direct attachment to framing lumber. This makes it a practical choice in open-ceiling framing scenarios where joist spacing does not align with fixture placement.

Key Features

• 20 cubic inch interior volume meets NEC conductor fill requirements for residential ceiling wiring
• Attached bar hanger provides adjustable positioning between ceiling joists
• New-work design intended for installation before drywall or ceiling material is applied
• Includes wire clamps for secure cable management at box entry points

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style new-work ceiling box for residential electrical rough-in applications where a bar-hanger-mounted box is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits in the work area before handling wiring or installing the box. Secure the bar hanger firmly between joists before attaching any fixture. Verify that the box cubic inch rating is sufficient for the number and gauge of conductors entering the box per NEC fill calculation requirements.
