Carlon SN-357 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many wires can I legally put in a Carlon SN-357 3-gang box?
The SN-357 gives you 56.5 cubic inches of volume, and NEC box fill is calculated against that number: 2.25 in3 per 14 AWG conductor, 2.5 in3 per 12 AWG. So 56.5 in3 works out to 25 conductors at 14 AWG or 22 at 12 AWG before you deduct for devices, grounds, and clamps (each yoke counts as two conductors of the largest wire in the box). With three switches and their grounds deducted, you still have plenty of room for a multi-gang switch bank fed and switched with 12/2 and 12/3.
2) Can I use this Carlon switch box on a remodel where the drywall is already up?
No. The SN-357 is a nail-on box with angled side nails, which means it has to be fastened directly to the face of a stud before the wall is closed in. It is a new-construction or gutted-wall box. For an existing finished wall you need an old-work (retrofit) box with swing-out ears or wing clamps that grip the drywall instead.
3) Is the Carlon SN-357 approved for Romex / NM cable?
Yes. The box is designed and listed for use with non-metallic sheathed cable per NEC Article 314, which is exactly what NM-B (Romex) runs require. It is a non-metallic PVC box, so there is no bonding of the box itself; the equipment grounds from each cable are spliced together and landed on the device screws.
4) Does this box carry a UL listing for commercial electrical inspection?
It is UL listed under file E11461, and that listing is what an inspector checks against for a non-metallic box used with NM cable. It is also made in the United States, which matters on jobs with domestic sourcing requirements.
5) Should I use a PVC nail-on box or a metal box for a 3-gang switch bank?
PVC is the usual choice on wood-framed new construction with NM cable: nothing to bond, no corrosion, and the nails drive straight into the stud. Go metal instead when you are pulling MC or EMT, when the local code or spec calls for metallic raceway, or where the box will take mechanical abuse. The SN-357 is the non-metallic PVC version, color-coded blue for quick identification on a rough-in walkthrough.
6) Will a standard 3-gang cover plate fit the Carlon SN-357?
Yes. It is a 3-gang switch box, so it takes any standard 3-gang device plate and three standard yoke-mounted devices (switches, receptacles, dimmers) on the usual 6-32 mounting screws. No proprietary plate is needed.
7) What part number do I order to standardize this box across a multi-family rough-in?
Order it as Carlon SN-357. That is the single model for this 3-gang 56.5 in3 angled-nail switch box, and the brand label runs as Carlon / Nutek, so either name on the carton is the same part.
