No. The 863 SCGV carries a NEMA Type 1 rating, which is indoor, dry-location only. It provides protection against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment and falling dirt, with no gasketing against water, dust, oil, or washdown. For a damp or outdoor wall, step up to a NEMA 3R or 4 enclosure instead.

It measures 8 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 3 inches deep, which is where the 863 designation comes from. That 3 inch depth is the number to watch: it sets how much room you have for conduit fittings, wire bends, and any device you plan to mount inside. The body is 16 gauge galvanized steel and the box weighs 3.3 lb.

Yes, it is a knockout box rather than a blank. There are 4 knockouts on each side, 4 on the top, and 4 on the bottom, so you can bring conduit in from more than one direction without drilling or punching in the field. If you need a clean box with no openings, this is not the one.

Surface mounting, through thru holes in the back of the box, so the fasteners go through the enclosure into your wall, stud, or strut. The cover also has keyhole slots, so you can back the plated cover screws out part way and lift the cover off without fully removing them. Fasteners and anchors are chosen to suit the substrate and are not part of the box.

A screw cover box like the 863 SCGV is the right call for a pull or splice point you rarely open, where a removable cover is fine and you do not need a swinging door. The keyhole slots in the cover make that occasional reopen quick. If the box holds equipment you access routinely, or you need to work in it one-handed on a ladder, a hinged-door enclosure serves better. Note that the 863 SCGV is catalogued as a small single door style but uses a screw-on cover.

It is built to UL 50, the standard covering enclosures for electrical equipment, and carries a NEMA Type 1 rating. For submittal purposes the item is the Eaton B-Line 863 SCGV, 16 gauge galvanized steel, screw cover, surface mount.

It ships unfinished, grey galvanized steel, with no paint topcoat. That is standard practice for indoor mechanical and electrical rooms and back-of-house runs where appearance is not a concern and the galvanizing handles the corrosion duty. In finished, publicly visible spaces, spec a painted enclosure instead, or plan to field paint.

Country of origin on the Eaton B-Line 863 SCGV is the United States. Confirm the specific documentation your agency requires for its domestic preference clause, since origin and formal domestic-content certification are separate items.
