Thomas & Betts CIFS-4 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Thomas & Betts CIFS-4 cover fit a standard FS box?
The CIFS-4 is a one gang blank cover made for FS style weatherproof boxes, so it mounts to the standard single gang FS/FD device opening and its two cover screw holes. It's a blank plate, meaning no device opening at all, so use it to close off an FS box you aren't putting a receptacle or switch in.
2) I need to cover an unused FS box on a jobsite inspection. Is a blank cover the right call?
Yes, a blank is what an inspector wants on an FS box with no device in it. The CIFS-4 closes the opening entirely, leaving no knockout or device cutout for water or debris to enter. If you later add a receptacle or switch, swap to the matching FS cover with that device opening instead, since this one cannot be drilled and still be weathertight.
3) Is this FS cover suitable for outdoor or wet location boxes?
It's an FS-series weatherproof box cover in stamped aluminum, so it's the right family for the cast outdoor FS boxes used on exterior walls, pump houses and parking structures. Aluminum resists corrosion better than steel in damp and coastal work. Pair it with the gasket your FS box takes to keep the seal intact.
4) Do I get one cover or a pack, and what part number do I order?
Sold each, one cover per unit, under manufacturer part number CIFS-4 from Thomas & Betts. It carries the Iberville sub-brand label, so Iberville CIFS-4 and T&B CIFS-4 are the same part. Order quantity to match your box count; screws are typically supplied with the FS box.
5) Will this cover work on a two gang FS box?
No. The CIFS-4 is a one gang cover and will not span a two gang FS box opening. For a two gang box you need a two gang blank FS cover.
6) What is the CIFS-4 made of and what does it look like once installed?
Stamped aluminum with a silver finish, so it reads as bare metal and matches the natural aluminum FS and FD boxes rather than a painted plate. For property managers standardizing exterior boxes across a site, that's a consistent look without field painting.
