Pass & Seymour TM1542-BOX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size hole does the Pass & Seymour TM1542 floor box need to be cut into the floor?
The TM1542 drops into a 4-3/4 inch hole and fastens with three screws that come with the box. The screws are captive on the TM1542 Series, so they stay with the part instead of dropping into the floor cavity while you are working overhead of a joist bay.
2) Will a standard GFCI receptacle fit in the TM1542 floor box?
Yes. The TM1542 has a standard Decorator opening, so a GFCI, TVSS, DataCom insert, or any other Decorator-style device mounts in it. The device mounting holes are threaded, so the device screws bite directly into the box. Box volume is 38 cubic inches, which covers the device plus conductor fill for a normal single-gang floor outlet.
3) Is a PVC floor box OK for a commercial office floor, or should I use a steel one?
The TM1542 is PVC, impact- and scratch-resistant, and cULus Listed, and it passes the UL 514(c) scrub water exclusion test, so it is built for finished commercial and residential floors where cleaning crews run wet equipment over it. Where a job spec calls out a metal floor box instead, Wiremold's steel boxes are the alternative we carry, including the 880W1 1-gang steel box at 53 cubic inches if you need more wiring room than the TM1542's 38 cubic inches, or the shallow 885B single service box for thin floor assemblies.
4) What is the steel equivalent to the Pass & Seymour TM1542 floor box?
The TM1542 box is PVC, so for an opening that calls for a metallic floor box the Wiremold 880W1 is the closest single-gang swap - it is a steel 1-gang floor box with 53 cubic inches of volume, against the 38 cubic inches of the TM1542. Choose the steel 880W1 where the specification or inspector requires a metallic box or where the extra wiring volume is needed for a device plus conduit fill; choose the PVC TM1542 where a non-metallic, impact- and scratch-resistant body is acceptable.
5) Which floor box should I use when the slab or floor cavity is too shallow for a 38 cubic inch box?
The Pass & Seymour TM1542 is a 38 cubic inch box that drops into a 4-3/4 inch hole, which needs a reasonable depth below the floor surface. Where depth is the constraint, the Wiremold 880M1 OmniBox and the Wiremold 885B are both shallow steel floor boxes - the 880M1 is a single-gang shallow box and the 885B is a shallow single-service box in the 880 Series. Those are the ones to look at for thin slabs, wood floors over joists, and retrofits with limited clearance.
6) Can I bring low-voltage data cable into the TM1542 along with power?
The box is prepped for it. There are drill guides on the underside of the cover so you can open it up for low-voltage wiring, and the Decorator opening takes a DataCom insert. Knockouts and Auto/Clamps are on both sides of the box, so power can come in one side and low-voltage the other.
7) Does the TM1542 floor box come with the cover and door, or do I order those separately?
The TM1542-BOX is the box itself, with the three mounting screws. The hinged door is removable and replaceable, which matters for maintenance in a conference room or lobby where the door takes abuse, you swap the door rather than cutting the box out of the floor.
8) How does the TM1542 clamp incoming cable, do I need separate connectors?
Auto/Clamps are built into both sides of the box along with knockouts, so NM cable can be clamped at the box without adding a separate cable connector. If you are running conduit, use the knockouts with the appropriate fitting for your raceway.
9) Can I mount a Decorator GFCI in a Wiremold 880 Series box the way I can in the TM1542?
Do not assume so. The TM1542 is built around a standard Decorator opening that takes GFCI, TVSS, DataCom or other Decorator devices, with threaded device mounting holes and drill guides under the cover for low-voltage. The Wiremold 885B is a single service box in the 880 Series and the 880M1 is a single-gang shallow box - with those, the device opening is determined by the cover plate or service fitting you order separately, so confirm the Decorator-style plate before you order. If you want the Decorator opening as part of the box, the TM1542 is the direct answer.
10) Is the Wiremold 880M1 OmniBox the same thing as the Pass & Seymour TM1542?
No. They are both single-gang floor boxes, but the 880M1 OmniBox is shallow steel construction, while the TM1542 is PVC at 38 cubic inches with knockouts and Auto/Clamps on both sides and a removable hinged door. If you are matching existing boxes on a floor, check which body material and door style is already installed before ordering, since the cover and door hardware do not carry across between the two.
11) I need more wiring volume than the TM1542 offers for a single-gang floor outlet - what else is there?
The Pass & Seymour TM1542 gives 38 cubic inches. For a single-gang floor box with more room, the Wiremold 880W1 is a steel 1-gang box at 53 cubic inches, which helps when you are bringing in multiple cables or deep-bodied devices and box fill is tight. The trade-off is steel body and greater required floor depth rather than the PVC body of the TM1542.
