Steel City CXV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the dimensions of the Steel City CXV, and will it fit a 2x4 stud wall?
The CXV measures 3 inches height by 2 inches width by 3-1/2 inches depth. Since a nominal 2x4 stud is 3-1/2 inches deep, the box consumes the full stud depth with no room behind it, so it suits new work on open framing rather than a shallow or furred out wall.
2) Is the Steel City CXV box gangable, so I can add a second device later?
Yes. The CXV is a gangable steel switch box, so the side plates come off and it ties to another gangable box to build a two, three, or four gang opening. If you want a box that will never be expanded, a non-gangable one gang device box is the simpler choice.
3) Does the Steel City CXV switch box come with a mounting bracket?
Yes, the CXV ships as a bracketed box, so it mounts directly to the stud face without separate straps or bar hangers. That bracket sets the setback for the finished wall, so it is a new construction box installed before drywall.
4) Is the Steel City CXV UL listed?
The CXV carries UL listing under file E2969.
5) Can I use the Steel City CXV switch box with metal conduit or MC cable?
It's a steel box, which is what you need for metallic wiring methods: EMT, rigid, and MC all bond through the box itself rather than requiring a separate plastic-box grounding arrangement. A nonmetallic box would not provide that path. Verify the box has the knockout or clamp type your wiring method needs before you rough in.
6) Is the Steel City CXV sold individually or by the case?
It is sold each, so quantity one gets you one 18 cubic inch steel device box. Order per opening when you are counting out a rough in.
7) Where is the Steel City CXV box made?
Country of origin is Canada, which matters if you're tracking origin for a government or institutional procurement spec.
