Red Dot 2IH3-1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Red Dot 2IH3-1 device box be used outdoors in a wet location?
Yes. The 2IH3-1 is a raintight weatherproof device box, and Red Dot's Dry-tite boxes and covers are rated to protect wiring devices, switches, electronic components and terminal blocks in dry, damp and wet locations. For the box to actually hold out water you have to pair it with a gasketed weatherproof cover; the box is built with clean cover edges so the gasket seats properly.
2) How many devices will the Red Dot 2IH3-1 hold, and how much wire volume does it give me?
It is a 2 gang box, so it takes two wiring devices (two receptacles, two switches, or one of each) behind a two gang weatherproof cover. Box volume is 31 cubic inches, which is what you use for your NEC conductor fill count.
3) Does a cover come with the Red Dot 2IH3-1, or do I have to order one separately?
The 2IH3-1 is the box only. You add the two gang weatherproof cover that matches your devices (duplex, GFCI, switch, or a flip lid style). The box is made with clean cover edges so the cover's gasket seals against it.
4) What does the "3 hole" mean on the Red Dot 2IH3-1 raintight box?
Three threaded conduit hubs on the box. That lets you bring conduit in and out plus run a third leg, so the box can serve as a through or tee point in a surface mounted raceway rather than a dead end. Order the hole configuration that matches how your conduit lands on the wall.
5) Can I use a raintight device box like the 2IH3-1 indoors in a damp area such as a parking garage or wash bay?
Yes, that is a normal use for it. The Dry-tite line is rated for dry, damp and wet locations, so it works indoors where moisture, washdown, or condensation would be a problem for a standard dry location steel box. For a clean, finished interior wall a standard nonmetallic or steel device box is the simpler choice.
6) What color is the Red Dot 2IH3-1 box, and will it match the other weatherproof boxes on my building?
Silver, the standard unpainted die cast look for Red Dot weatherproof boxes. If your existing exterior boxes are gray aluminum, it will blend; if your spec calls for bronze or white, you would need to paint or specify a finished box instead.
7) How is the Red Dot 2IH3-1 sold, by the box or by the piece?
Selling unit is each, so you can buy a single box or scale up the count for a job. It is commonly stocked in 100 piece quantities for electrical contractors doing repetitive exterior device work.
