Southwire G601-B-UPC 1-gang Steel Welded Wall Box

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE G601-B-UPC is a 1-gang welded steel electrical wall box designed to support toggle switches, duplex receptacles, and decorative wiring devices. Built for standard residential and light commercial rough-in work, this box provides a rigid, code-ready mounting point for common wiring devices installed behind single-gang cover plates. The welded steel construction delivers solid mechanical support, and the box is UL listed and RoHS compliant. Electricians use this box during new construction and retrofit projects where a reliable, single-gang enclosure is required.

This wall box is suited for residential new construction, remodel work, and light commercial applications where single-gang device mounting is needed. It is compatible with toggle switches, duplex outlets, GFCI receptacles, and standard decorative devices. The gangable design allows multiple boxes to be joined side by side, letting the installer construct a multi-gang assembly to accommodate two or more devices without needing a larger pre-formed enclosure. This flexibility makes the G601-B-UPC a practical choice for panel-room wiring and general device rough-in across a range of project types.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit at the panel and verify absence of voltage before mounting or wiring any devices in this box. Use appropriate knockout punches or pre-punched openings for conduit or cable entry, and ensure the box is secured plumb and flush to the framing member before pulling wire. When ganging multiple boxes, confirm all units are aligned and fastened securely before installing the cover plate assembly.
