Carlon B468R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Thomas & Betts B468R 4-gang box give me enough cubic inches for four devices?
The B468R gives you 71 cubic inches in a single 4-gang box. That is the number you run your NEC box fill calculation against: count each conductor, each device (two conductor volumes per yoke), grounds as one, and clamps as one, then confirm the total stays under 71. For four devices fed with 12 AWG the box is generous; it is the volume figure, not the gang count, that decides whether the fill is legal.
2) Can I install a B468R 4-gang box in a finished wall without opening up the drywall?
Yes, that is what the B468R is built for. It is an old work box, meaning it mounts into an opening cut in existing finished wall surface rather than nailing to a stud before the wall closes. Cut the opening to the box outline, set it in, and secure it with the old work mounting method. For a 4-gang cut that wide, check what is behind the wall first; a run of that length will usually cross at least one stud.
3) Is the Thomas & Betts B468R a metal box or plastic?
PVC, not metal. That means it is non-conductive, so there is no box to bond, and it resists corrosion in damp locations. The practical consequence for an electrician: your equipment grounding conductors have to land on the device grounding screws or be joined and pigtailed inside the box, since a plastic box gives the ground nothing to bond to.
4) Does the B468R 4-gang box come with a cover plate or devices?
No. The B468R is sold as the box only, one each. Receptacles, switches, and a 4-gang wall plate are separate line items, so order the plate in a configuration that matches the four devices you are installing (duplex, decora, or a mix) or you will have a finished box with nothing to close it.
5) Should I use a 4-gang box like the B468R or run two 2-gang boxes side by side?
One 4-gang box is the cleaner answer when the four devices belong together on the same wall location: a single cut, a single plate, and one shared 71 cubic inch wiring space instead of two separate fill calculations. Two 2-gangs make more sense when the devices are fed from different circuits you want physically separated, or when a stud falls squarely in the middle of where the 4-gang would land. For old work, the stud question usually decides it, since the B468R needs a continuous clear opening the full width of the box.
6) How do I order the Thomas & Betts 4-gang old work box - what is the part number?
Thomas & Betts B468R, sold individually. There is one configuration, so there is nothing to specify beyond the model: 4-gang, 71 cubic inch, PVC, old work.
7) What color is the Thomas & Betts B468R box, and does that matter?
Blue. That is the usual visual shorthand on a job for a nonmetallic device box, which is handy when an inspector or another trade is walking a wall of rough-in and needs to tell the plastic boxes from the metal ones at a glance.
