Mulberry 30596 Weatherproof 2-Gang Outlet Box, Powder-Coated Die Cast Aluminum, 4-1/2-Inch

The Mulberry 30596 is a weatherproof 2-gang outlet box built from powder-coated die cast aluminum, measuring 4-1/2-Inch, and designed to house receptacles, switches, and other wiring devices in exposed outdoor or wet-location applications. Its die cast aluminum body delivers rugged, corrosion-resistant protection for electrical connections, standing up to moisture, temperature swings, and everyday job-site abuse far better than lightweight stamped enclosures. The 2-gang configuration accommodates dual-device installations in a single enclosure, reducing the number of separate boxes an electrician has to mount, wire, and seal. Electrical contractors and facility maintenance teams rely on the Mulberry 30596 for durable, code-conscious outdoor wiring where weather exposure, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability matter most.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 4-1/2-Inch outlet box footprint sized to accept standard 2-gang device and cover plate hardware.
  • Durable Construction: Die cast aluminum body resists corrosion, cracking, and impact for long-term outdoor performance in demanding environments.
  • 2-Gang Configuration: Houses two wiring devices, such as receptacles or switches, in a single weatherproof enclosure, simplifying dual-device installations.
  • Weatherproof Design: Engineered for exposed outdoor and wet-location electrical installations where standard indoor boxes are unsuitable.
  • Finish: Powder-coated exterior adds an extra layer of protection against moisture, UV exposure, and the elements, helping preserve the box's appearance and integrity over time.
  • Job-Site Ready: Die cast aluminum construction combined with a compact 4-1/2-Inch profile makes the 30596 easy to mount, wire, and seal in the field.

Mulberry 30596 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Mulberry 30596 outlet box be used outdoors in a wet location?
Yes. The Mulberry 30596 is a weatherproof 2-gang box built for exposed outdoor and wet-location wiring, where a standard indoor box is not suitable. The die cast aluminum body with a powder-coated exterior handles moisture, UV, and temperature swings, so it suits patio and deck receptacles, landscape lighting circuits, and exterior device or junction enclosures on both commercial and residential work.
2) Will standard 2-gang device plates and covers fit the Mulberry 30596?
The 30596 footprint is sized to accept standard 2-gang device and cover plate hardware. For an outdoor install you still have to order the cover separately, and it should be a weatherproof 2-gang cover matched to the device you are mounting (duplex receptacle, GFCI, or switch), since the box ships as the enclosure only.
3) What is the closest metal 2-gang weatherproof alternative to the Mulberry 30596?
The Thomas & Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot 2-gang conduit outlet box is the nearest peer. It comes with three 1/2-inch hubs already cast into the body, so conduit lands directly without added fittings, and it ships as a pack of 100 for crews doing repeat outdoor device work. The Mulberry 30596 is a die cast aluminum 2-gang box with a powder-coated finish, bought as a single box, which suits a one-opening replacement rather than a bulk rough-in.
4) Is there a non-metallic option instead of the Mulberry 30596 die cast aluminum box?
Yes. The Cantex EZ Box series is a PVC multi-gang residential outlet box, so it is non-metallic and needs no bonding of the enclosure itself, and it pairs naturally with PVC raceway on residential work. The Mulberry 30596 is die cast aluminum with a powder-coated exterior, which is the choice when impact resistance and a metal wiring system are what the job calls for.
5) How many devices will the Mulberry 30596 hold?
Two. It is a 2-gang enclosure, so one box takes two wiring devices, such as a pair of receptacles, two switches, or a switch and a receptacle. That saves mounting, wiring, and sealing a second box where a dual-device outdoor location is called for.
6) Aluminum or PVC weatherproof box, which should I use outside?
Die cast aluminum, like the Mulberry 30596, is the choice where the box takes impact or sits on a commercial exterior wall, and it resists corrosion, cracking, and job-site abuse. A nonmetallic option such as the Cantex EZ Box multi-gang residential outlet box is the other direction, typically used on residential work. Aluminum also gives you a metallic enclosure when the rest of the run is metallic; PVC avoids a metal enclosure entirely in corrosive or coastal settings.
7) Is the Mulberry 30596 the same thing as a Red-Dot 2-gang conduit box?
They do the same job but are specified differently. The Thomas & Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot 2-gang conduit outlet box comes with three 1/2 inch hubs and is sold in packs of 100, so it is a bulk-buy item for repetitive conduit work. The Mulberry 30596 is ordered as a single weatherproof 2-gang die cast aluminum box. If your layout depends on a specific hub count and size, confirm the hub arrangement you need before swapping one for the other.
8) Can I use a Cantex EZ Box in place of the Mulberry 30596 on an exposed outdoor wall?
Treat them as different products rather than drop-in equals. The Cantex EZ Box is described as a PVC multi-gang residential outlet box, which points at residential rough-in work. The Mulberry 30596 is built specifically for exposed outdoor and wet-location device installations in die cast aluminum, and it accepts standard 2-gang device and cover plate hardware for that use. For a surface-mounted exterior receptacle or switch, the 30596 is the one matched to the application.
9) I only need a couple of boxes for a patio receptacle repair - which should I pick?
The Mulberry 30596 is sold as an individual 2-gang die cast aluminum weatherproof box, so it fits a small punch-list repair without excess. The comparable Thomas & Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot 2-gang box is packaged 100 to a carton, which is aimed at crews standardizing an outdoor rough-in across many openings.
10) What part number do I order for the Mulberry weatherproof 2-gang aluminum box?
Order Mulberry 30596. That is the manufacturer part number for the weatherproof 2-gang powder-coated die cast aluminum outlet box, and it is the single model on the item, so there is no finish or size choice to make at order time.
11) Will the powder coat hold up if I mount this box in direct sun?
The powder-coated exterior on the 30596 is there to add protection against moisture and UV exposure on top of the corrosion resistance the die cast aluminum already provides, which is what keeps the appearance and integrity of the enclosure from degrading outdoors over time.
