Product Description

The EATON 18184RTSC is a NEMA 3R rated screw cover junction box designed for electrical enclosure applications where protection against rain, sleet, and external ice formation is required. This enclosure type is a standard solution for outdoor and semi-exposed electrical installations, providing a secure, weather-resistant housing for wiring connections and terminal blocks. Electricians and electrical contractors install this style of box in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings where a durable, code-compliant enclosure is needed at service points or distribution nodes.

The 18184RTSC is suited for outdoor electrical installations requiring NEMA 3R environmental protection. Typical applications include service entrance enclosures, outdoor disconnect housings, and junction points on building exteriors. The screw cover design allows for reliable repeated access during maintenance and inspection without compromising the enclosure seal.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit solution for NEMA 3R screw cover junction box applications in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical systems.

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 and verify the absence of voltage before opening or working inside the enclosure. Mount the box to a structurally sound surface using appropriate fasteners for the substrate, ensuring the screw cover seats fully and evenly to maintain the NEMA 3R weather rating. Do not modify knockouts or sealing surfaces in ways that compromise the rated enclosure integrity.
