RACO RACO674 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a RACO 674 handy box hold a standard duplex receptacle or toggle switch?
Yes. The RACO 674 has a 4 x 2 inch footprint sized for standard duplex receptacles and toggle switches, and at 2-1/8 inch deep it leaves room for the device plus splices behind it. You will need a separate handy box cover to finish the device out, since the box ships as the enclosure only.
2) Does the RACO 674 come with a mounting bracket, or does it surface mount?
No bracket on the 674. It is built for surface mounting, so it fastens directly to the wall, stud face, or equipment surface. If you are nailing to a stud face in new framing and want the box set to drywall depth automatically, you want a bracketed handy box instead.
3) What size are the knockouts on the RACO 674, and can I run 1/2 in. conduit into it?
The 674 has eight 3/4 inch knockouts spread around the box, so conduit can come in from several directions. For 1/2 inch EMT or flex, use a 3/4 to 1/2 inch reducing washer set in the knockout. Straight 3/4 inch connectors land in it with no adapter.
4) Welded versus drawn handy box, which should I use?
The 674 is a welded box. Welded bodies are made from formed sheet steel joined at the seams, which is how the deeper handy boxes get their volume, and the one-piece welded body resists flexing when you torque devices into it. Drawn boxes are stamped from a single piece with no seam and are typically shallower. For commercial and industrial rough-in where you need wire fill room at 2-1/8 inch depth, the welded box is the normal pick.
5) Can I mount the RACO 674 in a finished wall as a recessed box?
It is not meant for that. With no bracket and a surface-mount design, the 674 sits on the face of the wall or structure rather than inside it. For a device in a finished drywall wall, use an old work or remodel box with wing clamps instead.
6) What is the exact part number for the 4x2 welded RACO handy box with eight 3/4 in. KOs?
RACO part number 674. One model, no finish or size options to specify, so ordering by 674 gets the 4 x 2 inch welded steel handy box, 2-1/8 inch deep, eight 3/4 inch knockouts, no bracket.
7) Where can I get the manufacturer spec sheet for the RACO 674?
Hubbell publishes a PDF spec sheet for the 674 at hubbellcdn.com/specsheet/RACO-674-SPEC-EN.pdf. That is the document to attach when a spec reviewer wants the box volume and knockout layout on paper.
