BEST BEST-CECB1900R66L-633-4.5x4.5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many wires does the BEST CECB1900R-66 hinge carry, and what gauges are they?
Six conductors: two at 24 AWG and four at 28 AWG. The heavier 24 AWG pair is normally used for the power draw of an electric lock, exit device, or electric strike, with the 28 AWG conductors left for low-current signalling such as door position, latch monitoring, or a card reader mounted on the door leaf. If your opening needs more than six circuits, look at an 8-wire hinge like the Detex EWH8 Series.
2) Where in the door does the electric hinge go if I have three hinges on the opening?
Put it in the center hinge location. The CECB1900R-66 is built for that position, with the wire loop and the raceway up the door edge landing mid-height where it is easiest to reach. Your top and bottom hinges stay standard, non-electrified units of the same size and finish.
3) Does the current keep flowing when the door is open, or only when it is closed?
Current is conducted regardless of door position. That is the point of a power transfer hinge: an electric lock, exit device, or hold-open on the leaf stays energized through the full swing, and signals from a reader on the door get back to the panel with the door open. It is a concealed electric design, so no wiring is exposed once the hinge is mortised in, which matters on doors where tampering is a concern.
4) Will this hinge drop into my existing hinge pockets?
It is a full mortise hinge, 4.5 x 4.5 inches, three knuckle, with square corners. If your current hinges are 4.5 x 4.5 with square corners rather than radius corners, the prep matches and the leaf seats in the existing pocket. What is new is the wiring: you still need a hole through the door edge and frame rabbet at the center hinge for the wire loop, plus the raceway to the junction box.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the BEST CECB1900R-66 electrified hinge if I need six conductors in a 4.5 inch hinge?
The RCI 952 is the closest match on conductor count: it is an electrified hinge with 6-conductor wiring and ball bearing construction, rated medium duty. The BEST CECB1900R-66 also carries 6 wires (2@24AWG and 4@28AWG) and is medium duty, but uses a concealed bearing rather than a ball bearing, with 3 knuckles and square corners. The Design Hardware ETW2-BB5 is a 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch electrified standard weight ball bearing hinge, also medium duty, if the 4.5 inch size is the governing dimension.
6) I need more than six conductors through the door - what electric hinge should I use instead?
Step up to the Detex EWH8, a five knuckle electric hinge in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch with 8 wires in a satin chrome finish. The BEST CECB1900R-66 is fixed at 6 wires (2@24AWG, 4@28AWG), so if your access control device stack needs eight circuits the EWH8 covers it in the same hinge size.
7) Do I need a junction box with an electrified hinge like the CECB1900R-66?
Yes, plan on one. The hinge should be used with a junction box so the six conductors terminate in an enclosure rather than being spliced loose in the frame, which is what keeps the install code compliant and serviceable later. Budget for the box, the frame raceway, and the run back to your power supply or access control panel; none of that comes with the hinge.
8) Is a medium duty electrified hinge enough for a busy commercial entrance?
The CECB1900R-66 is a standard weight, medium duty steel hinge with concealed bearings, rated for commercial use. That suits offices, classrooms, patient room doors, and tenant corridors. For a high traffic exterior leaf or a heavy fire rated door, step up to a heavy weight electric hinge; the Securitron EH is marketed as a double duty electric hinge for that kind of opening.
9) Can I use an electrified hinge instead of running a door loop or an electric power transfer?
Yes, and that is usually the cleaner choice. A surface door loop leaves an exposed cable between frame and leaf that can be cut or snagged; the CECB1900R-66 hides the six conductors inside the hinge, so nothing is visible with the door open or closed. The trade-off is the prep work, since the frame and door edge must be drilled and a junction box added, where a loop is largely surface applied.
10) Does the BEST CECB1900R-66 need to be ordered by hand, and do the alternatives?
Yes. The CECB1900R-66 is offered as a left-handed or right-handed hinge in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch with a 633 satin brass finish over steel, and hospital tips can be furnished when handing is specified. Among the alternatives, the Design Hardware ETW2-BB5 and Detex EWH8 are both catalogued in 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch, so confirm the hinge size on the frame prep matches before substituting.
11) For a high-traffic opening, is there an electric hinge rated for more cycles than the BEST CECB1900R-66?
The SDC PTH Series electrified power transfer hinges carry an 800,000 cycle rating, which is the published cycle figure in this group. The BEST CECB1900R-66 is a medium duty steel hinge with concealed bearings, and the Securitron EH is described as a double duty electric hinge. For a heavily used entry where cycle life drives the spec, the PTH Series is the one with a stated rating.
12) Will a Securitron EH or SDC PTH drop into the same frame prep as the BEST CECB1900R-66?
Do not assume it. The CECB1900R-66 is a full mortise 3 knuckle hinge with square corners and concealed bearings, sized 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch. The Securitron EH is an EH Series double duty electric hinge and the SDC PTH is a power transfer hinge series - both transfer power through the hinge location but are separate series, and the Detex EWH8 is five knuckle rather than three. Verify leaf size, knuckle count and corner style against the existing mortise before ordering a substitute.
13) Is the pin removable on the BEST CECB1900R-66?
No. It uses a permanent fast pin, so the leaves are not meant to be separated in the field. That is deliberate on an electrified hinge, since the conductors run through the barrel. Hospital tips can be furnished when specified with the hand, which is the usual call for healthcare and behavioral health openings where a ligature-resistant tip is required.
