Carlon B118BUPC 1-gang Pvc Electrical Switch Box

Product Description

The CARLON B118BUPC is a single-gang PVC electrical wall box designed for straightforward installation in both residential and light commercial wiring applications. Constructed from polyvinyl chloride, this switch box offers corrosion resistance and lightweight handling compared to metal alternatives. It is UL listed, meeting Underwriters Laboratories safety standards for electrical enclosures. Electricians and residential wiring contractors use this box as a standard rough-in solution when mounting wall switches, dimmers, or similar single-gang devices. The box ships individually and is sold as a single unit.

This switch box is suited for new construction and retrofit wiring projects in residential settings such as single-family homes, apartments, and condos, as well as light commercial spaces including offices and retail environments. Its PVC composition makes it a practical choice in applications where moisture exposure or corrosive conditions make non-metallic boxes preferable. Installation is straightforward and compatible with standard single-gang wallplates and switch devices.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes.
