Steel City 52171-EW-SSX-SP – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What's the difference between the 52171-EW-SSX and the 52171-EW-SSX-SP?
Pigtail. The 52171-EW-SSX ships without a pigtail; the 52171-EW-SSX-SP comes with a stranded pigtail already in the box for grounding, which saves a step on each rough-in. Box body, size, and bracket are the same either way.
2) Is this Steel City box UL listed for commercial work?
It carries UL listing under file E2969. Steel construction, silver finish, made in Canada. That covers it for residential, commercial, and industrial branch circuit work where a listed steel outlet box is called for.
3) Will standard 4 inch square covers and mud rings fit this box?
Yes. The 4 x 4 inch face is the standard square box footprint, so common 4 inch square flat covers, raised device rings, and plaster rings land on it. Depth is 2-1/8 inches, which affects how far the box sets into the wall cavity, not the cover pattern.
4) What does the wrap-around bracket on the 52171EWSSX do, and where does it mount?
The bracket wraps the box and fastens it to the stud, holding the box in position and at depth while you nail or screw it off. It's an integrated bracket, so there's no separate mounting hardware to order with the box. Covers, mud rings, and devices are separate items.
5) How many knockouts does this 4 inch square deep steel box have?
Fourteen knockouts, spread around the sides and back, so you can bring conduit or cable in from several directions on a crowded wall. That's what makes it workable as a junction point where multiple homeruns land in the same box.
6) Can I standardize on this box across a whole building or property?
It's a stock 4 inch square deep steel box with a stud bracket, sold each, so it works as a single rough-in box across apartments, offices, and back-of-house. Keeping one box type means one cover and ring inventory. If you want grounding consistency crew to crew, spec the -SP version with the stranded pigtail on every opening.
