Allied Moulded FiberglassBox 1-Gang Residential Switch Box

The Allied Moulded FiberglassBox™ 1-Gang Residential Switch Box is a non-metallic electrical enclosure molded from fiberglass reinforced thermoset polyester, engineered as a lightweight, corrosion-resistant alternative to traditional metal boxes for single-device installations. This family is offered in multiple models, including the 1096-N and 9301-E, giving electricians and contractors a choice of configurations within the same durable FiberglassBox™ construction. Every model in this line shares a 1-Gang device configuration suited to residential and light-commercial wiring, along with the corrosion-resistant thermoset polyester material that resists moisture and impact over the life of the installation.

Key Features

  • Configuration: 1-Gang design accommodates a single switch or receptacle device for standard residential wiring layouts across the model lineup.
  • Durable Construction: Molded from fiberglass reinforced thermoset polyester for corrosion resistance and long-term structural integrity compared to standard metallic boxes.
  • Model Selection: Available as the 1096-N and 9301-E, allowing installers to select the model that best fits their box-fill and mounting requirements.
  • FiberglassBox™ Series: Part of the Allied Moulded FiberglassBox™ product line, purpose-built as a non-metallic residential/receptacle enclosure.
  • Lightweight Handling: Thermoset polyester molding keeps each box lightweight relative to metal boxes, easing handling and installation on the jobsite.

Allied Moulded 1096-N – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the Allied Moulded 1096-N and 9301-E fiberglass switch boxes?
Both are 1-gang FiberglassBox single-device boxes molded from fiberglass reinforced thermoset polyester, so the material and device capacity are the same. The difference is the box itself: the 1096-N measures 2-1/4 x 3-13/16 x 3 inches with 18 cubic inches of interior volume. Footprint and interior volume vary between the two models, so pick the model whose box fill and mounting arrangement matches your rough-in.
2) Is 18 cubic inches enough box fill for a single switch with 12 AWG wiring?
The 1096-N gives you 18 cubic inches of interior volume for one device. Under standard NEC box fill math, 12 AWG counts 2.25 cubic inches per conductor and a single yoke device counts as two conductors, so a switch loop with two 12 AWG cables in and out plus grounds lands comfortably inside 18 cubic inches. Count your actual conductors, clamps and grounds before committing on a crowded box.
3) Will a fiberglass box work in a damp basement or coastal install where metal boxes corrode?
That is the reason to use it. The FiberglassBox 1-gang box is molded from fiberglass reinforced thermoset polyester, a non-metallic material that resists moisture and impact and will not corrode the way a steel box does. It is a residential and receptacle switch box, so it belongs in walls and finished construction rather than serving as a weatherproof outdoor enclosure.
4) Can I mount a two-gang device plate on the Allied Moulded 1096-N or 9301-E?
No. Both models are 1-gang, sized and tapped for a single switch or receptacle and a single-gang cover plate. For a duplex receptacle plus a switch side by side you need a 2-gang box instead.
5) How many Allied Moulded FiberglassBox 1-gang boxes come in a carton?
Cartons ship 100 boxes, which suits rough-in buying for a whole house or a multi-family floor rather than one-off replacement. Both the 1096-N and the 9301-E are part of that same FiberglassBox program.
6) Are Allied Moulded FiberglassBox switch boxes made in the USA for Buy American jobs?
Yes. The FiberglassBox 1-gang switch boxes are produced in the United States, which is what institutional and government procurement typically needs documented on domestic-content specs.
7) Is a fiberglass box suitable for new construction rough-in, or only for remodel work?
Both. The 1-gang FiberglassBox is used for new construction electrical rough-in as well as remodel and renovation work, and for single-device wall box installations generally. The choice between the 1096-N and 9301-E comes down to which footprint and mounting arrangement suits the framing you are working in.
8) Where do I find the full spec sheet for the Allied Moulded 1096-N?
Allied Moulded publishes a PDF spec sheet for the FiberglassBox line covering the 1-gang models, and it is linked in the product specifications. That is the document to check dimensions and mounting detail against before ordering a full carton.
