B-LINE 24248 RTSC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line 24248 RTSC junction box be installed outdoors?
Yes, for outdoor use in the rain. The 24248 RTSC carries a NEMA 3R rating, which covers protection against falling rain, sleet and external ice formation, and it ships with a rain hood over the cover. NEMA 3R is not a washdown or hosedown rating, so if the box will be sprayed directly or sit where windblown dust is a concern, step up to a Type 4 or 4X enclosure instead.
2) What are the box dimensions on the B-Line 24248 RTSC screw cover enclosure?
24 inches high, 24 inches wide, and 8 inches deep. That 8 inch depth is what decides most jobs, so check your deepest device or terminal block plus wire bending space before you commit. Bare weight is 44.5 lb, which is a two-person lift on a wall or a ladder.
3) Does this Eaton B-Line junction box come with knockouts already punched?
There are 9 knockouts in the bottom of the enclosure. Nothing is provided in the top, sides or back, which is correct practice for a 3R box, water should never enter from above. If your conduit runs come in from the side or top, you will be punching them yourself and sealing with a raintight fitting and a gasketed hub.
4) Is this B-Line junction box UL listed for a spec job?
The 24248 RTSC is built to UL 50, the standard for enclosures for electrical equipment, and it is made in the US. If the drawing calls out a UL 50 Type 3R painted steel screw cover enclosure, this matches that callout. The spec sheet value to quote is Type 3R.
5) How is the 24x24x8 B-Line RTSC box mounted to a wall?
Surface mount, using embossed thru holes formed in the back of the enclosure. The embossing stands the hole off the mounting surface so water does not track in at the fastener. Mounting hardware for your wall type is not part of the enclosure, so pick anchors rated for a 44.5 lb empty box plus whatever you install inside it.
6) What gauge steel is the B-Line 24248 RTSC enclosure, and will it rust outside?
14 gauge carbon steel with a painted finish in ANSI 61 grey. Painted carbon steel holds up in normal outdoor and industrial atmospheres, but it is not stainless, so in coastal, chemical or wash-down environments the paint is the only barrier and corrosion will start at any field-punched hole you leave unprimed. For those locations specify a stainless or 4X enclosure.
7) Does the 24248 RTSC come with a back panel for mounting components?
No panel is included. The RTSC is a screw cover junction and pull box, sold as the enclosure with its flanged cover and rain hood only. If you intend to mount terminal strips, relays or a small controller inside, order the matching subpanel separately and allow for it within the 8 inch depth.
8) What is the exact part number to order for the 24 x 24 x 8 B-Line 3R screw cover box?
Eaton B-Line catalog number 24248 RTSC. The number reads as the dimensions followed by the type: 24 inch height, 24 inch width, 8 inch depth, RTSC for the raintight screw cover enclosure. Distributors cross it under UPC 782051348002.
