B-LINE 886 SC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line 886 SC junction box be used outdoors or in a wash-down area?
No. The 886 SC is a NEMA Type 1 enclosure, which is indoor use only, for protection against incidental contact and falling dirt. It gives no protection against rain, hose-down, or dust ingress. For an exterior wall, a loading dock, or any damp location you need a Type 3R or Type 4 enclosure instead.
2) Does the 886 SC screw cover box come with knockouts, or do I have to punch my own conduit holes?
Knockouts are already provided: 4 on each side, 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom. That lets you bring conduit in from either side plus top and bottom feeds without drilling or punching the 16 gauge carbon steel body in the field.
3) How does the B-Line 886 SC mount to a wall, and is mounting hardware part of the box?
It is a surface mount enclosure with thru holes in the back of the box, so you fasten straight through the back pan into the wall, strut, or backboard with your own anchors or screws sized to the substrate. Fasteners are not part of the enclosure. The cover also has keyhole slots, so it can be loosened and lifted off without backing the plated screws all the way out.
4) What size is the B-Line 886 SC junction box, inside and out?
It is an 8 inch height by 8 inch width box with a 6 inch depth, so you have a roughly 8 x 8 opening behind the cover and 6 inches of depth for splices, terminal blocks, or a small device. The box weighs 5.7 lb bare, which matters if you are hanging several on drywall or unistrut.
5) Is a screw cover box like the 886 SC the right choice, or should I use a hinged door enclosure?
A screw cover box is for connections you rarely open: splices, pull points, terminal blocks, low voltage junctions. The cover comes off entirely, which means both hands and a place to set the panel down. If the enclosure will be opened regularly for testing or resetting a device, a hinged door version is the easier call. The 886 SC is the small single door, screw cover style.
6) What is the exact part number to order this 8x8x6 B-Line screw cover box?
The Eaton B-Line part number is 886 SC, an 8 inch by 8 inch by 6 inch Type 1 screw cover enclosure in carbon steel. Spec the number as one unit; the enclosure is a single configuration with no finish or size options to select.
7) What color and finish is the Eaton B-Line 886 SC enclosure, and will it match other boxes in my plant?
It ships painted in ANSI 61 grey, the standard industrial enclosure grey, so it lines up visually with most switchgear, control panels, and other B-Line boxes already in a typical facility. Cover screws are plated.
