B-LINE 1812 TCF – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the B-Line 1812 TCF telephone termination cabinet?
The 1812 TCF measures 14 inches high, 8 inches wide, and 14 inches in length/depth, and weighs 6.9 lb. Use those numbers to lay out the wall opening before you frame it in, since this is a flush mount box that sits inside the wall cavity rather than on the surface.
2) Is the 1812 TCF cabinet flush mount or surface mount?
Flush mount only. The 1812 TCF is built to recess into the wall so the trim sits close to the finished surface. If you need a box hung on the face of a masonry or finished wall, this is not the right version, look for a surface mount utility cabinet instead.
3) Can a NEMA 1 telephone termination cabinet be used outdoors or in a wet area?
No. The 1812 TCF carries a NEMA 1 degree of protection, which is indoor use only, protecting personnel against contact with the enclosed equipment and keeping out falling dirt. It is not rated against rain, washdown, dust, or corrosive atmospheres, so for exterior walls, parking structures, or mechanical rooms with water exposure you need a NEMA 3R or 4 enclosure.
4) What is the 1812 TCF made of and what is the finish?
Steel body, finished in ANSI 61 gray paint. That gray is the standard switchgear and panel color, so the cabinet matches existing electrical and telecom gear in a typical commercial building without repainting.
5) How does the door on the 1812 TCF fasten shut?
The door is secured with an oval head screw and cupped washer. That means it takes a screwdriver to open, so it is a fastened cover rather than a latched or keyed door. If your facility needs tool-free or lockable access for frequent service, plan on a different cabinet style.
6) Is the 1812 TCF the right box for terminating telephone and low voltage cable in a commercial building?
Yes, it is a Type 1 telephone termination cabinet from the Eaton B-Line utility cabinet series, intended for indoor termination of telephone and similar low voltage wiring where the enclosure only needs to guard against contact with the equipment inside. It is not a rated electrical panel enclosure for power distribution.
7) What is the exact part number to order this B-Line telephone cabinet?
Order it as Eaton B-Line 1812 TCF. That is the single model for this cabinet, the 14 gauge steel flush mount Type 1 telephone termination version in ANSI 61 gray. There are no finish or size options to specify.
8) How heavy duty is the steel on the 1812 TCF cabinet?
The cabinet is 14 gauge steel, a heavier body than the light gauge sheet used on residential grade boxes, which is why it holds its shape when recessed in a wall and takes repeated service access. Total shipping weight is 6.9 lb.
