RACO RACO241 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the RACO 241 box come with cable clamps for MC or armored cable, or do I need connectors?
Clamps are built in. The RACO 241 has integral AC/MC/Flex clamps covering Armored Cable, Metal Clad, MCI-A, and flexible conduit, so you land the cable right at the box without buying separate connectors for those methods.
2) Will a RACO 241 mount to metal studs or only wood?
Both. The 241 carries a TS bracket rated for metal or wood studs, and it sets the box flush for finished wall work during rough-in framing.
3) What should I use instead of the RACO 241 for an outdoor or wet location box?
The RACO 241 is a welded steel outlet box with a TS bracket for flush mounting to metal or wood studs, so it belongs inside the wall rather than on an exposed exterior surface. For a weatherproof surface application, the Mulberry Royal Mountie is a die-cast aluminum 1-gang weatherproof outlet box, and the Thomas & Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot is a 2-gang conduit outlet box with three 1/2 inch hubs. Hubbed or weatherproof bodies like those are the ones intended for exposed work; the 241 is a rough-in box.
4) Is the RACO 241 acceptable in a hazardous or classified area?
No. The RACO 241 is a UL Listed welded steel outlet box for general commercial and residential rough-in. For classified locations, Appleton's malleable iron explosionproof conduit outlet boxes are the correct family, including the GRJ Series, the GRJS Series universal box, and the GRT75 round conduit outlet box. Those are built as explosionproof enclosures; a standard steel device box is not a substitute for them.
5) Can I substitute a PVC box for the RACO 241 on a residential job?
The Cantex EZ Box is a PVC multi-gang residential outlet box and is the nonmetallic alternative if your wiring method is nonmetallic cable. The RACO 241 is welded steel with built-in clamps for Armored Cable, Metal Clad, MCI-A and Flex, so it is the choice when the job is wired with AC, MC or flexible conduit and needs a metallic enclosure for bonding continuity. Match the box to the cable type specified rather than treating the two as interchangeable.
6) How deep is the RACO 241 4 in. square box?
2-1/8 in. deep, which is the deepest of the common 4 in. square steel boxes and gives you room for device wiring plus splices in the same box.
7) What size conduit knockouts does the RACO 241 have?
Entries are 1/2 in. knockouts plus a 1/2 to 3/4 in. combination TKO, so you can run 1/2 in. EMT or step up to 3/4 in. at one opening without a reducing washer.
8) Is the RACO 241 UL Listed for inspection?
Yes, the 241 outlet box is UL Listed.
9) Should I use a steel box like the RACO 241 or a PVC box on a residential job?
If you are running AC, MC, or flex, go steel: the 241's clamps are made for those armored methods and the metal box bonds the raceway. For nonmetallic cable in a residential multi-gang opening, a PVC box like the Cantex EZ Series is the simpler choice.
10) Is a welded steel box better than a drawn box for rough-in?
The 241 is welded rather than drawn. Welded construction gives a more rigid body that holds square when you are tightening clamps or pulling cable, which matters on bracketed boxes nailed to framing. Drawn boxes are one-piece stamped and generally shallower.
11) What is the part number to order this RACO 4 in. square box?
Order it as RACO 241. That is the manufacturer part number for the 4 in. square welded steel box, 2-1/8 in. deep, with AC/MC/Flex clamps and TS bracket.
12) I need a round box for a fixture outlet, not a 4 in. square. What are my options?
The RACO 241 is square in shape, which suits standard device and fixture plate mounting on a 4 in. square opening. If the application calls for a round body, the Appleton GRT75 is a malleable iron round conduit outlet box. Confirm the cover and fixture canopy you are using matches the shape before ordering either one.
