No. The 36246 HC carries a NEMA Type 1 rating, which is indoor use only, for general-purpose protection against incidental contact and falling dirt. It offers no protection against rain, hose-down, dust ingress or corrosive environments. For a wet or outdoor location you need a Type 3R or Type 4 enclosure instead. The box is UL 50 listed.

It measures 36 inches high, 24 inches wide and 6 inches deep. The 6 inch depth is the number that usually decides the job, since it sets how much room you have behind the door for terminal blocks, gutter space and wire bending. Shipping weight is 55.4 lb, so it is a two-person lift onto the wall.

Knockouts are provided: 9 on the top, 9 on the bottom and 9 on the sides. That is enough for a typical multi-circuit pull or gutter application without punching steel in the field. If your conduit runs do not line up with the factory knockout pattern, you can still punch the 16 gauge carbon steel body with a standard hydraulic knockout set.

The 36246 HC has a hinged cover, so the door swings open and stays with the box during service instead of coming off in your hands on a ladder. The cover is also removable if you need it off entirely during rough-in. It includes a recessed pull ring and friction dimple to hold the door closed.

It is a surface mount enclosure with thru holes in the back pan, so it bolts flat to a wall, strut rack or backboard. It is not designed to be recessed into finished drywall. At 55.4 lb empty, anchor into structure or unistrut rather than drywall anchors, and account for the weight of the conductors you pull in.

The 36246 HC is a Type 1 junction box in the HC single-door style: carbon steel body, hinged cover, and knockouts. It is built as a wiring and pull box rather than a control panel kit, so plan to source any interior mounting panel, terminal strips or DIN rail as separate line items alongside it.

At 36 by 24 inches of face area with 6 inches of depth, it gives a long straight pull path vertically, which is what governs pull box sizing under NEC rules for straight and angle pulls. The 6 inch depth is the constraint on large-diameter conduit with wide bending radius fittings. Size the box against the largest raceway entering it before committing.

The body is 16 gauge carbon steel with a painted ANSI 61 grey finish, the standard grey used across most industrial control and electrical gear, so it will match adjacent panels in a plant or mechanical room. The paint is intended for dry indoor service; it is not a corrosion coating for exterior use.

Order it as Eaton B-Line catalog number 36246 HC. The number reads directly off the dimensions: 36 inch height, 24 inch width, 6 inch depth, with HC denoting the hinged cover version. It is made in the US.
