Orbit GB-1-MC 2-1/2" Deep Gangable 1-Gang Switch Box with MC Clamps
The Orbit GB-1-MC is a 2-1/2" deep, gangable 1-gang switch box engineered for durable, code-compliant electrical rough-in work. Designed with a gangable side-knockout construction, this switch box allows installers to combine multiple units side-by-side to create multi-gang configurations on the job site, eliminating the need to stock separate multi-gang box SKUs. Integrated MC clamps are built directly into the box, providing a secure, fast termination point for armored (MC) cable without the need for separate connectors, saving installation time and reducing the parts count on every rough-in run. At 2-1/2" in depth, the GB-1-MC offers ample interior volume for switches, receptacles, and the associated conductors and devices typically installed in residential and light commercial branch circuits.
Key Features
- Trade Size: 2-1/2" deep 1-gang switch box body sized for standard switch and receptacle device installations.
- Gangable Design: Removable side plates allow multiple boxes to be joined together on site to form 2-gang, 3-gang, or larger multi-device configurations from a single box style.
- Integrated MC Clamps: Factory-installed MC cable clamps provide a secure, code-recognized cable termination point without requiring separate add-on connectors.
- Single-Gang Configuration: Sized and configured to accept standard single-gang switches, receptacles, and device plates.
- Simplified Rough-In: Combining gangability with built-in cable clamps reduces the number of individual components electricians need to source, stock, and install for a given box configuration.
