B-LINE 24186 RTSC NK – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line 24186 RTSC NK junction box be mounted outdoors?
Yes. The 24186 RTSC NK carries a NEMA Type 3R rating, so it is built for outdoor use against falling rain, sleet and external ice formation. It also ships with a rain hood over the cover to shed water off the door seam, and the screws are plated to hold up outdoors. It is not a washdown or hosedown enclosure, so keep it off direct spray applications.
2) What are the actual box dimensions on the B-Line 24186 RTSC NK enclosure?
It measures 24 inches high by 18 inches wide with a 6 inch depth, which is where the 24186 designation comes from. That 6 inch back-to-front dimension is the one to check first: with a rain hood on top and a flanged screw cover, you need clearance in front of the box to swing the cover off, and only 6 inches inside for gutter work, splices or a small terminal strip.
3) Does this Eaton B-Line junction box come with knockouts already punched?
No. The NK in 24186 RTSC NK means no knockouts, so the body arrives blank and you punch your own conduit entries where the job needs them. Plan on a knockout punch set or hole saw for 16 gauge carbon steel, and touch up any cut edge to keep the painted finish from rusting at the penetration.
4) Is this junction box UL listed, and will it match the other gear in my yard?
It is built to UL 50, the standard covering enclosures for electrical equipment. The finish is ANSI 61 grey paint, the same industrial grey used across most switchgear and control enclosures, so it blends with existing panels on a plant wall or outdoor rack. Country of origin is the US.
5) Can I use this enclosure as a panel or control cabinet with a back panel?
It is a junction and pull box first, styled as a medium single door with a screw-on flanged cover. There is no back panel included, and at 6 inches deep you have limited room behind a mounted subpanel for devices and wire bends. For splices, gutter taps and terminal blocks it works; for mounting starters, drives or a breaker interior, look at a deeper 3R enclosure with a hinged door.
