B-LINE 12104 HC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line 12104 HC junction box be used outdoors or in a washdown area?
No. The 12104 HC is a NEMA Type 1 enclosure, which is indoor use only, for protection against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment and falling dirt. It has no gasket rating for water, oil, or dust. For a wet location, a rooftop, or a hose-down kitchen wall, you need a NEMA 3R, 4, or 4X box instead.
2) Does the B-Line 12104 HC come with knockouts already punched, and where are they?
Yes, it ships with knockouts on three faces: 5 top, 5 bottom, and 5 on the sides. So you can bring conduit in from above, below, or laterally without drilling or punching the carbon steel body on site.
3) Is the cover on the 12104 HC hinged or does it come all the way off?
Both, in effect. The HC cover is hinged so it swings open and stays with the box while you are working, and it is also removable when you need the opening clear. It has a recessed pull ring and a friction dimple to hold it shut. For an MRO or maintenance panel that gets opened repeatedly, the hinge is the reason to choose this over a screw cover.
4) What are the actual box dimensions on the B-Line 12104 HC enclosure?
It measures 12 inches high by 10 inches wide by 4 inches deep. That 4 inch depth is what usually decides the job: it gives you room for terminal blocks, splices, or a small relay, but check your deepest mounted component plus wire bending space before you commit.
5) How does this B-Line junction box mount to a wall, and is mounting hardware included?
It is a surface mount enclosure with thru holes in the back pan, so it fastens flat against a wall, a strut run, or a backboard with your own screws or bolts. Fasteners and anchors are not part of the box, so pick them for the substrate you are landing on. It is not a flush or recessed box.
6) What is the exact part number to order this Eaton B-Line hinged cover box, and how heavy is it?
Order it as B-Line 12104 HC. It weighs 7.4 lb, light enough for a one-man install on a wall or backboard, and it is made in the US.
7) What gauge steel is the B-Line 12104 HC enclosure, and what is the finish?
The body is 16 gauge carbon steel, painted ANSI 61 grey. That is the standard industrial grey most panel shops and plant electricians already have on the wall, so it matches adjacent gear without repainting.
