Pass & Seymour P118R Thermoplastic Switch and Outlet Box

The Pass & Seymour P118R is a single-gang plastic switch and outlet box built to speed up rough-in electrical work with non-metallic (NM) cable. Rather than requiring an installer to knock out an entry hole and thread cable through a fitting, the P118R uses a Quick/Entry design that lets stripped or unstripped non-metallic cable be pushed directly into the box without removing knockouts and without tools. This tool-free entry point reduces installation steps on every switch or receptacle location wired with NM cable, which is especially valuable on production electrical crews and remodel work where minutes per box add up across a job. The box is molded from durable grey thermoplastic, is UL Listed, and is RoHS Compliant, giving contractors a code-recognized, corrosion-resistant enclosure for switches and outlets in standard residential and light commercial wiring.

Key Features

  • Single-Gang Configuration: Sized to house one switch or one receptacle device, matching standard single-gang wallplates and device layouts.
  • Quick/Entry Cable Access: Push stripped or unstripped non-metallic cable straight into the box without removing knockouts or reaching for tools, cutting steps out of every rough-in.
  • Faster Rough-In: Eliminating the knockout-and-fitting step on each cable entry point speeds installation across multi-box runs and whole-house wiring jobs.
  • Durable Thermoplastic Construction: Molded plastic housing resists cracking, corrosion, and the wear of jobsite handling better than unprotected metal boxes.
  • Grey Finish: Standard grey color for a consistent, professional appearance behind wallplates.
  • Made in the United States: Manufactured domestically to Pass & Seymour build standards.

Pass & Seymour P118R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use the Pass & Seymour P118R box with NM (Romex) cable without knocking out a hole?
That is the point of the P118R. Its Quick/Entry design lets stripped or unstripped non-metallic cable be pushed straight into the box, no knockout removal and no tools. On a whole-house rough-in that removes a step at every switch and receptacle location.
2) Is the P118R a single-gang box?
Yes, single gang. The P118R houses one switch or one receptacle and lines up with standard single-gang wallplates and device layouts. For a two-device location you need a two-gang box instead.
3) Can a plastic box like the P118R be used with metal-clad or armored cable?
No. The P118R is a thermoplastic box with Quick/Entry access built for non-metallic cable systems. MC, AC, or conduit runs need a box with knockouts and connectors rated for those wiring methods, and they also need the metallic raceway bonding path that a plastic box cannot provide.
4) Is the Pass & Seymour P118R UL Listed?
UL Listed, and RoHS compliant. That gives inspectors a code-recognized enclosure for switch and receptacle locations in residential and light commercial work.
5) Do I need a separate ground screw or grounding pigtail with the P118R?
A thermoplastic box has no metal shell to bond, so there is no box bonding screw to land. The equipment grounding conductors get joined and pigtailed to the device's green ground screw inside the box.
6) Will a plastic box hold up better than metal in damp or corrosive areas?
The molded thermoplastic housing does not corrode the way an unprotected metal box will, and it resists cracking and rough jobsite handling. It is a standard grey enclosure for dry interior switch and outlet work, not a weatherproof outdoor box.
7) Is the P118R made in the USA?
Yes. The P118R is manufactured domestically in the United States to Pass & Seymour build standards, which matters on jobs carrying a domestic-content requirement.
8) Is the P118R good for remodel work or only new construction?
Both. Pass & Seymour lists it for new construction rough-in and for renovation and retrofit electrical work, and the tool-free cable entry is where crews see the time back on multi-box circuits.
