Thomas Betts 2IH3-2 Square Outlet Box 2 Gang Aluminum

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 2IH3-2 is a two-gang square aluminum outlet box rated for weather-resistant installations. Constructed from powder-coated aluminum with a silver finish, this box meets NEMA 3R requirements, making it suitable for applications exposed to rain and outdoor conditions. It measures 4-9/16 inches in height, 4-5/8 inches in width, and 2-1/16 inches in depth. The unit ships with two closure plugs and ground screws included. Licensed electricians install this type of enclosure as part of branch-circuit wiring runs in commercial and residential settings where code requires a durable, corrosion-resistant box.

This outlet box is suited for use in commercial and light industrial electrical installations where two-gang capacity and outdoor or damp-location ratings are required. The NEMA 3R rating covers protection against falling rain and allows for surface-mount conduit wiring scenarios. Three 3/4-inch knockouts provide conduit entry flexibility. Typical installation scenarios include exterior wall surfaces, service corridors, and covered outdoor structures where NEC requirements call for weatherproof electrical enclosures.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements and local codes. De-energize the circuit at the panel before mounting or wiring this box. Secure the box to the mounting surface using appropriate screw fasteners through the screw-mount points. Unused knockouts should be sealed with the included closure plugs to maintain the NEMA 3R rating.
