Thomas Betts FDC3-TB 1 Gang Electrical Device Box Iron

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS FDC3-TB is a single-gang rectangular electrical device box constructed from iron with a zinc-plated finish. Designed for use in residential and light commercial electrical installations, this device box provides a secure, code-compliant enclosure for receptacles, switches, and similar wiring devices. The box measures 2.75 inches in overall width and features two 1-inch knockouts to accommodate standard conduit or cable entries. At 3.32 pounds, the iron construction offers solid durability for rough-in work. Licensed electricians are the primary installers of this type of enclosure during new construction or retrofit wiring projects.

This device box is suited for single-gang device installations in walls or other structural surfaces where a non-weather-resistant enclosure is appropriate. The gray, zinc-plated iron body is rated for interior applications and is not intended for outdoor or wet locations. The two 1-inch knockouts allow flexible conduit or cable routing from multiple entry points, making it adaptable to typical rough-in configurations found in residential and light commercial settings.
