No. The 1010 TCF is a NEMA 1 enclosure, which means indoor use only, for protection against incidental contact and falling dirt. It offers no rating against rain, hose-down, dust, or oil. For an exterior wall, a loading dock, or a mechanical room with water present, you need a NEMA 3R or NEMA 4 enclosure instead.

The cabinet measures 6 x 6 x 6 inches across its stated height, width, and depth, so plan the wall cavity and framing around a 6 inch cube. Because it is a flush mount cabinet, the box sits inside the wall with the trim at the finished surface, so the stud bay must be deep enough to take the full 6 inch depth.

Flush mount. The 1010 TCF is built to be recessed into the wall so the door finishes level with the drywall, which is what most spec writers call for in a corridor or tenant space where a protruding box is a hazard. If the wall is masonry or the cavity is too shallow, you need a surface mount utility cabinet instead, not this one.

Yes, the 1010 TCF carries a UL Listing, which is what most inspectors and institutional specs require for an enclosure housing electrical controls and instruments. That matters on school, healthcare, and government work where unlisted enclosures get rejected at inspection.

It is 14 gauge steel. That is a heavier body than the light-gauge sheet metal boxes often used for low voltage, so it holds its shape when terminal blocks or a punch-down block are mounted inside and stands up to traffic in a corridor or back-of-house area.

Yes. Although it is designated a Type 1 telephone termination cabinet, its stated application is housing electrical controls and instruments, so it works as a small flush recessed enclosure for control terminations, sensors, or instrument connections in an indoor location. Keep in mind the 6 x 6 x 6 inch interior limits how much you can land inside and how much bend radius you have for larger conductors.

The 1010 TCF is painted ANSI 61 gray, the standard industrial enclosure gray used across Eaton B-Line and most other panel and enclosure lines, so it will read the same as existing gear in an electrical room or riser closet. It ships painted, not primed, so no field finishing is needed unless you want it to match a wall color.

Order it as Eaton B-Line model 1010 TCF. It weighs 4 lb, light enough for one person to set and fasten into a stud bay without a second hand or a lift.
