Orbit GDB-1-MC 3-1/2" Deep Gangable 1-Gang Switch Box with MC Clamps

Orbit GDB-1-MC 3-1/2" Deep Gangable 1-Gang Switch Box with MC Clamps

The Orbit GDB-1-MC is a 3-1/2" deep, gangable 1-gang switch box built for electricians who need a dependable device enclosure that can be ganged together to form multi-gang assemblies on the job site. Equipped with integrated MC clamps for fast, secure cable connections, this switch box is designed for switch and receptacle installations in residential and light commercial branch-circuit wiring. The gangable design lets installers add additional boxes side-by-side to build 2-gang, 3-gang, or larger configurations without needing separate multi-gang box stock, keeping rough-in inventory simple while still meeting the layout requirements of the job.

Key Features

• Box Depth: 3-1/2" deep design provides ample interior volume for device wiring, wire nuts, and conductor fill in a single-gang footprint.
• Gangable Construction: Side knockout tabs allow multiple boxes to be joined together on site, letting installers build custom multi-gang switch or receptacle assemblies from standard 1-gang units.
• Integrated MC Clamps: Built-in MC cable clamps secure armored MC cable directly at the box entry point, speeding rough-in and eliminating the need for separate connectors.
• 1-Gang Configuration: Sized to accept a single switch or receptacle device and its cover plate, the standard configuration used throughout residential and commercial branch wiring.
• Jobsite-Ready Rough-In Component: Designed as a standard rough-in electrical box for new construction and remodel wiring where MC cable is the specified wiring method.
