B-LINE AW2016-1PP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size enclosure does the B-Line AW2016-1PP perforated panel fit?
The AW2016-1PP is sized for a 20 x 16 inch B-Line enclosure, and the panel itself measures 18.88 x 16 x 14.5 inches per the published height, width and length/depth figures. Match the panel to the enclosure's nominal back-panel opening before ordering, since a perforated panel has to clear the enclosure's mounting studs.
2) Is this B-Line panel suitable for outdoor or washdown use?
No. The AW2016-1PP carries a NEMA 1 rating, which is indoor general purpose only, with no protection against falling water, dust or corrosive liquids. For wet, outdoor, or washdown locations you need a NEMA 3R, 4 or 4X enclosure and panel combination instead.
3) Why choose a perforated back panel instead of a solid steel subpanel?
A perforated panel gives you a grid of pre-punched holes so components, DIN rail, terminal blocks and wire duct can be screwed or bolted anywhere on the field without drilling and tapping. A solid subpanel is the better choice when you want to lay out and tap your own hole pattern, or when you need an unbroken surface for grounding or shielding. The AW2016-1PP is the medium perforated pattern in steel.
4) Is the B-Line AW2016-1PP UL Listed for use in an electrical panel build?
Yes, the AW2016-1PP is UL Listed and rated NEMA 1. That is the piece an institutional or MRO inspector normally looks for on an indoor control enclosure back panel.
5) Does the AW2016-1PP come with mounting hardware or standoffs?
What you are buying is the panel itself, model AW2016-1PP, a white powder coated steel medium perforated panel. Mounting studs, nuts, standoffs or brackets come with or are ordered for the enclosure, so verify the enclosure's hardware is on the order too.
6) What finish is on this B-Line perforated panel, and will it need painting?
It ships white powder coated over steel, so no field painting is needed. The white surface also makes component labels and wire markings easier to read inside the enclosure.
7) Can one person handle and mount this panel inside an enclosure?
Yes. At 3.915 lb the AW2016-1PP is a one-hand lift, so a single electrician can set it on the enclosure studs and start the nuts without help.
