Arlington Industries DBVMA1C – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an Arlington DBVMA1C box work on a foam or EIFS wall, and how thick can the foam be?
The DBVMA1C is built for walls with foam or rigid insulation, and it adjusts from 2-3/4 inches to 5 inches to reach through that layer to the sheathing. If your foam plus finish falls anywhere in that band, the box sets flush at the finished surface. Thinner than 2-3/4 inches or deeper than 5 and you need a different depth range.
2) Does the Arlington DBVMA1C meet the 2017 NEC requirement for outdoor receptacles?
Yes. The DBVMA1C is built to meet 2017 NEC Section 406.9(B) for protection of exterior outlets, and it carries both UL and CSA listings. That is the section an inspector cites on outdoor receptacles, so an in-use cover on the wall is what gets the job signed off.
3) I need a grounding clip in the box for my inspector. Does the DBVMA1C have one?
Not that part number. The same box with a grounding clip is ordered as DBVMA1CGC. If your jurisdiction or your own spec calls for a bonding provision in the enclosure, order the GC version up front rather than trying to add one later.
4) Should I use an adjustable foam wall box or a standard weatherproof box on an insulated exterior wall?
A standard surface-mount weatherproof box bolts to the finished face and sticks out past it, and on a foam wall it has nothing solid behind it. The adjustable type, like the DBVMA1C, anchors back at the structure and telescopes out through 2-3/4 to 5 inches of foam so the device lands flush with the finish. On insulated or EIFS walls that is the version that seals correctly; on a plain framed wall with normal sheathing, a conventional box is simpler.
5) Can you get to the receptacle with the cover closed on an Arlington foam wall box?
That is the point of the in-use cover. The clear lid closes over a plug that is left connected, so a cord for a holiday light run, a trickle charger, or a pump stays energized and protected. Clear cover color also means you can see whether something is plugged in without opening it.
6) Is the Arlington DBVMA1C mounted vertically or horizontally, and how many gangs?
Vertical mount, 1-gang. That orients a single duplex receptacle the usual way up the wall. If your opening is laid out sideways, or you need two devices, this is the wrong part number for it.
7) How much wall does the Arlington DBVMA1C cover, and what color is it?
The unit measures 9.058 by 7.012 inches and weighs 0.153 lbs each, in white. That footprint matters on lap siding and trim boards, so lay it out against your course lines before you cut. The clear lid sits over the white base.
8) Will an Arlington plastic exterior box yellow or crack after a few years in the sun?
The body is UV-rated plastic, which is the material spec that keeps an outdoor enclosure from chalking and getting brittle on a south wall. It is also nonmetallic, so there is nothing to rust at a coastal or pool-deck installation. Made in the United States.
9) How many Arlington DBVMA1C boxes come in a case for a multi-unit job?
They sell one at a time, and the manufacturer's standard carton is 4 pieces. For a townhome or apartment run where every unit gets a patio receptacle, order in multiples of four and you land on full cartons.
