B-LINE 8848 GGV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Eaton B-Line 8848 GGV wireway rated for outdoor or wet locations?
No. The 8848 GGV is a NEMA 1 enclosure, which is indoor, general purpose only. It keeps personnel out of live parts and handles falling dirt, but it is not gasketed and offers no protection against rain, washdown, or dust. For an outdoor run or a wet process area you need a NEMA 3R or NEMA 4 raintight wireway instead.
2) Does this B-Line wireway come with knockouts already punched, or do I have to drill it?
It comes punched. The 8848 GGV is the NK (knockout) style with 15 knockouts along the top and 15 along the bottom, so you can land conduit at regular intervals without cutting or drilling on site. If you want a blank body with no punchings to lay out your own entries, you need the no-knockout version of the series instead.
3) How does the cover come off on the 8848 GGV wireway, and how is the body mounted?
The cover is a screw cover, held on with plated screws, so you need a driver to open a section. That is the trade off against a hinged cover: more secure and better for runs you rarely open, slower when you are pulling and re-pulling conductors. The body mounts with thru holes, so you fasten it directly to strut, backpan, or wall through the enclosure wall.
4) Is the Eaton B-Line 8848 GGV wireway galvanized or painted, and what gauge steel is it?
It is galvanized steel in 14 gauge, finished gray. The galvanized construction is the reason to pick the GGV over a painted enclosure for damp indoor spaces like parking structures, mechanical rooms, and unconditioned warehouse space, though it is still a NEMA 1 body and not for exposure to weather.
5) Is this wireway CSA certified for a job in Canada?
The 8848 GGV carries CSA certification. That is the listing that inspectors on Canadian projects will look for on the label.
6) What part number do I order for an 8 x 8 x 48 inch galvanized screw cover wireway from B-Line?
Order Eaton B-Line catalog number 8848 GGV. The number reads out the size: 8 inch height, 8 inch width, 48 inch length, GGV for the galvanized screw cover version with knockouts.
7) Do I need anything besides the wireway sections to build a complete run?
Yes. A 48 inch section of 8848 GGV gives you straight body only. Any change in direction needs a matching 8 x 8 fitting, an L bend, tee, or cross, and the end of the run needs an end plate to close it off. Connectors join section to section. Order those separately and size them all to the same 8 x 8 cross section as the body.
