Steel City LXOW-25L – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size device box is the Steel City LXOW-25L and how much wire fill does it give me?
The LXOW-25L is a single-gang steel switch box measuring 3 inches high by 2 inches wide with a 2-1/2 inch depth, and it carries 12.5 cubic inches of volume. That volume figure is what you use for NEC box fill calculations, so count your conductors, devices, clamps and grounds against 12.5 in3 before you commit to it on a crowded junction.
2) Will a standard single-gang switch or receptacle plus a cover plate mount to the LXOW-25L?
Yes. At 3 x 2 inches it is the standard single-gang device footprint, so ordinary single-gang switches, receptacles and cover plates line up on it. The 2-1/2 inch depth is the deeper of the common single-gang depths, which is what gets you the 12.5 cubic inch volume rather than the shallower boxes in the same family.
3) Is the LXOW-25L steel or plastic, and is it OK where I need the box bonded?
Steel, finished silver. A steel box is conductive, so it becomes part of the equipment grounding path once it is bonded, which is what most commercial and MRO specs call for over a nonmetallic box. It is also the reason it holds up in exposed or high-traffic areas where a plastic box gets cracked.
4) What is the correct part number to reorder this Steel City device box?
Order it as Steel City LXOW-25L. That single manufacturer part number covers the 3 x 2 x 2-1/2 inch steel switch box, so there is no finish or size option to pin down when you reorder.
