Technical Specifications

This 4" square surface cover features steel construction with raised surface design, measuring 4" x 4" x 0.5" and weighing 0.26 pounds. The cover provides 5.5 cubic inches of internal capacity and is specifically configured for two duplex receptacles. Designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, this cover meets NEC/CEC standards and is engineered for surface-mounted electrical box applications requiring dual receptacle access.

Installation Process

1. Verify electrical box is properly mounted and level before cover installation
2. Ensure all conductors are properly terminated and secured within the box
3. Install duplex receptacles in cover openings, ensuring proper grounding connections
4. Position cover over electrical box, aligning mounting holes carefully
5. Secure cover to box using appropriate screws, ensuring even pressure distribution
6. Verify receptacles are flush-mounted and properly aligned with cover openings
7. Test all connections for proper operation and code compliance

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office spaces, retail environments, and professional facilities requiring multiple power outlets
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, warehouses, and processing facilities with heavy electrical demands
• Institutional Projects - Schools, hospitals, and government buildings requiring reliable power distribution
• Workshop Applications - Maintenance facilities, repair shops, and technical workspaces needing accessible power
• Equipment Rooms - Server rooms, telecommunications closets, and mechanical spaces
• Laboratory Installations - Research facilities and testing environments requiring multiple power sources
• Surface-Mounted Systems - Applications where recessed installation is not practical or possible
• Retrofit Projects - Upgrading existing electrical systems with additional receptacle capacity

Surface Cover System Benefits

Surface covers provide superior accessibility compared to flush-mounted alternatives, allowing easier maintenance and modification of electrical connections. The raised design creates additional working space for complex wiring configurations while maintaining professional appearance. This approach is particularly valuable in industrial environments where electrical systems require frequent access or modification, and in retrofit applications where surface mounting is more practical than wall modification.

Why Choose Steel Construction?

Steel construction delivers unmatched durability and impact resistance for demanding electrical applications. Unlike plastic alternatives, steel covers maintain dimensional stability under temperature variations and provide superior protection against physical damage. The corrosion-resistant finish ensures long-term performance in industrial environments, while the professional appearance meets the aesthetic requirements of commercial installations. This combination of durability, performance, and appearance makes steel the preferred choice for professional electrical contractors.
