Hubbell Nm Box 2G Old Work 2 Gang Electrical Box

Product Description

The HUBBELL NM BOX 2G is a nonmetallic old-work electrical box designed for two-gang device installations in existing wall assemblies. Old-work boxes are used when wiring is being added or modified after drywall or plaster is already in place, eliminating the need to access wall cavities from the stud side. This box accepts standard two-gang wallplates and devices including duplex receptacles, switches, and combination devices. Licensed electricians install this type of box during renovation and retrofit electrical work in residential and light commercial settings.

The NM BOX 2G is suited for retrofit wiring projects where nonmetallic sheathed cable is the wiring method. It is appropriate for use in dry, interior wall installations where old-work mounting is required. The two-gang configuration accommodates side-by-side device installations, making it a common choice for locations that require multiple receptacles or switches at a single point. It installs through a cutout in the finished wall surface without requiring stud access.

Key Features

• Two-gang configuration supports dual device or receptacle installations
• Old-work design installs through finished drywall without stud access
• Nonmetallic construction suitable for NM cable wiring methods
• Compatible with standard two-gang wallplates and devices

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Always de-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify the absence of voltage with a meter before beginning work. The box is secured to the finished wall surface using the integrated mounting ears or clamps that bear against the inside of the drywall. Do not install in wet or damp locations unless the box and devices are rated for such environments.
