Southwire 52C14-UPC 1-device Square Raised Cover

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 52C14-UPC is a single-device square raised cover designed to work with 4-inch by 4-inch square electrical boxes. It provides a mounting surface for switches, receptacles, and other wiring devices in standard residential and commercial electrical installations. Constructed from steel, it delivers the structural durability required in rough-in and finish work. Slotted openings on the cover compensate for up to 0.5 inches of box misalignment on upright framing members, reducing rework time during installation. This cover is UL listed, meeting safety requirements for use in listed electrical assemblies.

This square raised cover is suited for use in residential new construction, renovation work, and light commercial projects where 4-inch square boxes are used as the primary enclosure. Electricians install it during device rough-in or trim-out phases to adapt square box openings to single-device faceplates. It is commonly used on wall outlets, switches, and similar single-gang devices in standard stud-framed walls.
