Kidde Edwards K-276B-RSB Surface Back Box Assembly Red

Product Description

The KIDDE EDWARDS K-276B-RSB is a red surface-mount back box assembly designed for use with compatible notification appliances in commercial and life-safety fire alarm systems. This back box provides a flush, finished mounting surface for wall-mounted notification devices installed in surface-mount applications where recessed electrical boxes are not present or practical. It ships as a complete assembly and is sold as a single unit. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage contractors are the primary installers of this accessory.
