1-Gang Iron Mounting Box

The Appleton Century Crofts EDSC171 is a single-gang electrical box constructed from iron. It provides a mounting body for wiring devices in conduit systems. The grey finish and lug brackets support secure surface installation. It is intended for electricians and maintenance personnel working on industrial or commercial power circuits.

This box fits projects that require a UL-listed iron enclosure for one switch or receptacle. It is not for installations needing multiple gangs, integrated cable clamps, or a larger internal volume. Buyers who need to mount two or more devices side by side should look at a different configuration. Non-metallic or outdoor-rated enclosures are also outside this product's scope.

The unit carries cULus listings E10449 and E81751 and meets CSA C22.2 No. 14. These standards cover hazardous-location and industrial-control equipment requirements. Confirm that your local code accepts these listings for the intended environment before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 1-gang iron body with lug brackets fit alongside my existing steel boxes on the same stud?

The single-gang iron mounting body uses lug brackets, so it occupies the same stud space as other 1-gang boxes and aligns with standard switch or receptacle openings.

How can I confirm the box meets code after I mount it?

The gray iron box carries cULus listings E10449 and E81751 and complies with UL 508, UL 698, UL 1203 and CSA C22.2 No. 14, so the inspector can verify the marks on the casting.

Does the EDSC171 come with cable clamps or do I need to buy them separately?

The specifications state clamp type is not included, so you must supply listed cable clamps or connectors that match your wiring method.
