Carlon B112HBR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many wires can I put in a Carlon B112HBR handy box?
The B112HBR is a 12 cubic inch single gang handy box, so box fill is calculated against that 12 in3 figure. Under standard box fill math, every 14 AWG conductor counts 2 in3 and every 12 AWG conductor counts 2.25 in3, with additional allowances for devices, clamps and grounds. That puts a 12 in3 box in the range of a single switch or receptacle fed by one cable, not a junction point for multiple home runs. If you are splicing three or more cables, step up to a deeper box.
2) Is the Carlon handy box metal or plastic, and does it need a ground pigtail to the box?
It is non-metallic, thermoplastic, in gray. Because the body will not conduct electricity, there is no need to bond the box itself the way you would a steel handy box; the equipment ground lands on the device and any downstream cable grounds are spliced together. That also means it will not rust, which is why electricians reach for it in damp basements, garages and utility rooms.
3) Will a standard single receptacle or toggle switch mount in this Carlon box?
Yes. The B112HBR is a one-gang handy box, which is the standard single device footprint, so any common single gang receptacle, toggle switch or decorator device with standard 6-32 mounting screws lines up with the box ears. Handy box covers are their own size, though, so order a handy box style cover plate rather than a flat wall plate.
4) Can I use a non-metallic handy box like this on a surface mount job instead of a metal 4x2 box?
That is exactly what a handy box is for, surface work on masonry, block or exposed framing where the box sits proud of the wall with rounded corners. The trade off versus a steel 4x2 is conduit: a plastic body is not a grounding path, so if you are running EMT or rigid and relying on the raceway for equipment grounding, use a metal box. For NM cable runs and surface work where corrosion is the concern, the non-metallic version is the better pick.
5) Does the Carlon B112HBR come with cable clamps or connectors?
The catalog description for this box reads PLASTIC ELEC BOX W/O CONDUCTOR, meaning the box is supplied bare with no conductor or wiring. Plan on ordering your cable connectors or clamps and a handy box cover separately to finish the install.
6) What is the part number to order for the Carlon 12 cubic inch gray handy box?
Order Carlon model B112HBR. It is branded Carlon / Nutek and made in the United States. That single MPN covers the 12 in3 gray non-metallic one-gang handy box, so there is no size or color option to specify.
7) I manage apartment buildings and need one box type for garage and laundry room outlets. Is this the right one to standardize on?
For surface mounted single device outlets in garages, laundry rooms and mechanical spaces, the B112HBR works well as a fleet standard: thermoplastic body that will not rust in damp areas, gray finish that matches typical electrical trim, and a 12 in3 single gang volume sized for one device on one cable. Where you have two devices at a location or several cables joining, you will still need a larger or two gang box, so keep one deeper box on the shelf alongside it.
