B-Line Eaton series CT lift off cover, 3R, 14 gauge steel, ANSI 61 gray paint finish, Galvanized steel, Surface mount, 1P, Lift off cover

Yes. The 242411 RTCT carries a Type 3R rating, which covers outdoor use against falling rain, sleet and snow. It is UL listed, built from 14 gauge steel with a galvanized steel body and finished in ANSI 61 gray paint, so it holds up on an exterior wall or a meter pedestal wall. Type 3R is not a washdown or dust-tight rating, so if you need hosedown or heavy dust protection you want a 4 or 4X enclosure instead.

It measures 24 inches high by 24 inches wide with an 11 inch depth. Plan for the full 11 inches of clearance behind the wall face plus the swing space in front, since the cover lifts off rather than hinging open. At 55 pounds it is a two-person set on a wall, or one person with a lift.

No. It is specified single-phase. For a three-phase CT installation you need a cabinet sized and specified for three-phase CT mounting, so check the phase designation on the model before ordering against a three-phase service.

Lift off cover. The whole front panel comes away in one piece instead of swinging on hinges, which gives you unobstructed access to the CT wiring during termination and inspection. The tradeoff is that you need somewhere to set a 24 by 24 inch steel panel down while you work, and utility sealing provisions matter more since there is no hinge to hold the cover captive. If your utility or inspector requires a hinged door, this is the wrong version.

Surface mount. It sits on the face of the wall rather than recessing into it, so no wall cavity or trim ring is needed, but the full 11 inch depth projects into the space and you have to anchor into structure capable of carrying 55 pounds plus conduit load. Mounting hardware and anchors suit the wall type, so those are supplied on the job, not with the box.

It is finished in ANSI 61 gray paint, the standard gray used across most commercial switchgear, panelboards and meter equipment, so it lines up visually with a typical electrical room or exterior service wall. The paint goes over a galvanized steel substrate, which is what gives it corrosion resistance if the coating gets scratched during install.

14 gauge is the common body thickness for utility grade CT cabinets of this size and it is what lets a 24 by 24 inch enclosure stay rigid with a removable front panel and take conduit hubs without oil-canning. Combined with the galvanized steel base material and UL listing, it is a standard specification for a metered service in a commercial or multi-family application.
