B-Line Eaton series Type 3/3R junction boxes, 12" height, 6" length, 8" width, 3R, Hinged cover, RTHC enclosure, Surface mounted, Small single door,

Yes. The 1286 RTHC carries a NEMA 3R rating, which covers outdoor use against falling rain, sleet and snow, and it includes a rain hood over the door. It is not a washdown or hosedown enclosure, so keep it off locations that see direct spray or submersion.

12 inches high, 8 inches wide and 6 inches deep, in 16 gauge carbon steel. Lay out your device plate and conduit runs against that 6 inch depth before you commit, since deep breakers or large wire bends eat it fast.

It ships with 4 knockouts, so you are not drilling the primary conduit entries. Any additional entries you punch yourself should be made in the sides or bottom to keep the 3R rating intact.

Surface mount, through embossed thru holes in the back of the box. The embossing stands the hole off the mounting surface so water does not track into the enclosure at the fastener. Fasteners and any strut hardware are supplied by the installer.

Yes, the single door has a padlock provision. The cover is hinged at a formed top hinge and is removable, so a tech can swing it open for service or take it off entirely during rough-in and still lock it out once energized.

Pick the hinged version when someone will be opening the box regularly, for splices you re-enter, terminal blocks, or a control device. The 1286 RTHC swings on a formed top hinge and the cover is also removable. A screw cover box is the cheaper choice for a run you close up once and never touch, but on an outdoor 3R location a hinged door with a rain hood is far easier to service in the weather without dropping hardware in the mud.

Order Eaton B-Line model 1286 RTHC. The number reads out of the dimensions: 12 inch height, 8 inch width, 6 inch depth, RTHC for the rain-hood hinged cover style.

Painted ANSI 61 grey, the standard gray used across most industrial control and distribution gear, so it blends with existing panel lineups rather than standing out.

7.8 lb empty, so a single installer can hold it up and set the fasteners without a helper. Load the wall anchors for the weight of the box plus whatever devices and conduit you land in it.
