B-LINE 121212 SCGV NK – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can a NEMA 1 junction box like the B-Line 121212 SCGV NK be used outdoors or in a washdown area?
No. The 121212 SCGV NK carries a NEMA Type 1 rating, which covers indoor use only and guards against incidental contact with enclosed equipment and falling dirt. It offers no protection against rain, hosedown, dust ingress or corrosive atmospheres. For a wet or outdoor location you need a Type 3R, 4 or 4X enclosure instead.
2) Does this B-Line junction box come with conduit knockouts, or do I have to drill it myself?
No knockouts. The SCGV NK is the no-knockout version, so the body comes blank and you drill or punch your own openings wherever your conduit runs land. That is usually what an electrician wants on a custom pull box, but if you need factory holes you have to order a knockout version rather than the NK.
3) Is this Eaton B-Line box UL listed for an inspected commercial job?
It is built to UL 50, the standard for enclosures for electrical equipment, which is the listing an inspector looks for on a Type 1 junction or pull box. It is also made in the US, which matters on Buy American and federal or institutional specs.
4) What are the actual box dimensions on the Eaton B-Line 121212 screw cover junction box?
It is a 12 x 12 x 12 inch box: 12 inch height, 12 inch width and 12 inch length/depth. That cube shape gives you real pulling and splicing room, and the 12 inch depth is why it weighs 14.7 lb.
5) How does the cover attach, and can I get the cover off by myself once the box is mounted high on a wall?
The cover is screw-on with plated screws, and it has keyhole slots so you can back the screws out partway and lift the cover off without fully removing every screw or juggling loose hardware on a ladder. It is a screw cover, not a hinged door, so plan on working space in front of the box.
6) How does the 12x12x12 B-Line box mount to a wall?
Surface mount, using thru holes in the back of the enclosure. You fasten straight through the back panel into the wall or strut with your own anchors or bolts, which are not supplied. At 14.7 lb empty, plus conductors, pick fasteners rated for the substrate, and into masonry or drywall use appropriate anchors or strut.
7) What gauge steel is the B-Line 121212 SCGV NK, and is it stiff enough to hang devices or a terminal strip inside?
The body is 16 gauge galvanized steel. That is a standard commercial wall thickness for a box this size and it takes self-tapping screws or drilled and tapped holes for a terminal strip, DIN rail bracket or mounting panel without flexing. It does mean you drill with a step bit or punch rather than a spade bit.
8) What is the exact part number to order this 12 inch B-Line screw cover box?
Order Eaton B-Line part number 121212 SCGV NK. The number reads directly as size and type: 12 x 12 x 12 inches, screw cover galvanized, no knockouts.
9) Is this junction box painted, and will galvanized steel hold up in an unheated indoor space?
It is unfinished galvanized steel, gray in appearance, with no paint topcoat. The zinc coating handles ordinary indoor humidity in mechanical rooms, warehouses and unheated interior spaces. It is not a corrosion rated enclosure though, so keep it out of wet, chemical or coastal exposure and step up to a Type 4X stainless or non-metallic box for those.
