B-LINE 24246 WPSC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line 24246 WPSC junction box be installed outdoors?
Yes. The 24246 WPSC is a Type 3/3R enclosure, which is the rating for outdoor use against rain, sleet and windblown dust. It also carries a Type 12 rating for indoor dust and dripping liquids, and it is built with an oil-resistant gasket and gasketed cover screws to hold that seal. UL 50 listed.
2) What are the actual box dimensions of the B-Line 24246 WPSC enclosure?
It measures 24 inches high by 24 inches wide with a 6 inch depth, so plan for a 24 x 24 footprint on the wall plus clearance to swing the screw cover off. Shipping weight is 41.7 lb, which is a two-hand lift at height.
3) How does the B-Line WPSC box mount to a wall, and do I need extra brackets?
Surface mount, using external mounting feet that are part of the enclosure. Because the feet sit outside the box, you drill and anchor without breaching the gasketed enclosure wall, which is what keeps the Type 3R seal intact. You supply the anchors suited to your wall; no separate mounting bracket kit is needed.
4) Screw cover or hinged door enclosure, which should I use for a junction box?
The 24246 WPSC is a screw cover box with a flanged cover, meant for pull and splice points you open rarely. Every access means backing out gasketed screws and lifting a cover off a 24 x 24 opening, which is awkward on a ladder. If you or your techs will be in the box regularly for terminations or metering, pick a hinged-door enclosure instead; for a sealed outdoor junction or pull box, screw cover is the right call and there is no hinge or latch to corrode.
5) What gauge steel is the B-Line 24246 WPSC, and is the finish suitable for a plant or rooftop?
14 gauge carbon steel with a painted finish in ANSI 61 gray, the standard gray used across industrial gear so it matches existing switchgear and panels on a facility. Carbon steel painted is fine for general outdoor and plant use; for washdown, coastal salt air, or chemical exposure you want a stainless or non-metallic enclosure instead.
6) Does the B-Line 24246 WPSC come with knockouts or a back panel?
It ships as a blank enclosure. WPSC boxes are supplied without knockouts so you punch conduit entries where your run lands, and you should punch the sides or bottom rather than the top to keep the Type 3R rating. A sub-panel is not part of the box either, so order an inner panel separately if you need to mount terminal blocks in the 24 x 24 x 6 interior.
7) What is the exact part number to order this Eaton B-Line box, and is it made in the USA?
Order catalog number 24246 WPSC from the Eaton B-Line series. The digits read as the size: 24 high, 24 wide, 6 deep, WPSC for the weatherproof screw cover style. Country of origin is the US.
