Orbit GB-1-NM 1-Gang Switch Box, 2-1/2" Deep, Gangable, with NM Cable Clamps
The Orbit GB-1-NM 1-Gang Switch Box, 2-1/2" Deep, Gangable, with NM Cable Clamps is a rugged electrical outlet box built for switch and device installations in residential and light commercial wiring. This 2-1/2" deep gangable box allows installers to combine multiple boxes side-by-side to form 2-gang, 3-gang, or larger multi-device assemblies without needing to stock separate multi-gang box sizes, streamlining inventory and simplifying rough-in work. Integrated NM cable clamps are built into the box to secure non-metallic sheathed cable directly at the point of entry, reducing strain on conductors and helping maintain a clean, code-conscious termination inside the enclosure. The added depth of 2-1/2" provides generous interior volume for wire fill and device connections compared to shallower boxes, giving electricians more working room when installing switches, dimmers, or other single-gang devices.
Key Features
- Box Depth: 2-1/2" deep design provides extra interior volume for wire fill and device installation.
- Gangable Construction: Sides remove or interlock so multiple boxes can be joined together to build 2-gang, 3-gang, and larger switch box assemblies on the job site.
- Integrated NM Cable Clamps: Built-in clamps secure non-metallic sheathed cable at the point of entry, protecting conductors from abrasion and pull-out.
- 1-Gang Configuration: Sized to accept a single switch, receptacle, or device before ganging with additional boxes.
- Durable Steel Construction: Built to withstand the rigors of new construction and remodel wiring installations.
- Jobsite-Ready Design: Simplifies rough-in by letting electricians build the exact box size needed on site rather than stocking every multi-gang variant.
