Wiremold Company BW3 Deep Outlet Box White Metal

Product Description

The WIREMOLD COMPANY BW3 is a white metal deep outlet box designed to house standard or oversized switches, outlets, dimmers, and GFCIs where additional depth is required. At 1.375 inches deep, this box provides the extra clearance needed when wiring devices with larger bodies or multiple conductors. Constructed from metal, it delivers the structural integrity expected in commercial and residential electrical installations. Electricians reach for this box when standard-depth boxes are too shallow for the device being installed.

The BW3 is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where switches, outlets, dimmers, or GFCI devices require a deeper mounting enclosure. It is a practical solution in retrofit and new-construction scenarios alike, particularly when working with crowded junction points or oversized device bodies that do not fit flush in a standard box. The unit is sold in packages of 5, making it convenient for multi-outlet or multi-room installations.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style deep outlet box replacement or new-installation component compatible with standard and oversized switches, outlets, dimmers, and GFCI devices in residential and light commercial electrical systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always shut off and lock out power at the breaker before beginning any outlet box installation or device wiring. Verify box fill calculations per NEC Article 314 to ensure conductor count does not exceed the rated capacity of the box. Do not force oversized devices into boxes that do not provide adequate depth clearance.
