Thomas Betts 72-C-1 Electrical Box Cover Steel

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 72-C-1 is a steel electrical box cover designed to close out and protect 4-11/16 inch wide electrical enclosures. This blank cover plate provides a clean, code-compliant finish on junction boxes and outlet boxes where no device is installed. Fabricated from steel, it offers durable protection against accidental contact with live wiring and helps maintain the integrity of the enclosure. Licensed electricians and maintenance technicians install this cover as part of standard wiring rough-in and finish work on residential and commercial electrical systems.

This cover is suited for use on 4-11/16 inch square electrical boxes in both new construction and retrofit applications. It is appropriate for use in interior wall, ceiling, and junction box installations where a blank cover is required to satisfy NEC requirements for covered and accessible electrical enclosures. No device cutout is present, making it a straightforward blank plate for unused box locations.
