Steel City P 64 1 AL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Steel City P 64 1 floor box cover plate a flush cover with a plug, or does it have an open service opening?
It's a flush service floor box cover plate with a 1 inch NPS threaded plug, and it has zero knockouts. The plug threads into the service opening to seal the box when no device or receptacle is being brought up through the floor. If you need an open or device-ready cover, this is the wrong part.
2) What's the difference between the brass and aluminum versions of the Steel City P 64 1 cover plate?
Material only. The brass plate is ordered as P 64 1 and the aluminum as P 64 1 AL. Brass is the usual choice where the plate is visible in finished floors and you want it to match other brass floor plates in the space; aluminum is the lighter, lower-cost finish option. Both are flush service plates with the 1 inch NPS plug.
3) Will a 1 inch NPS plug thread into my floor box opening?
The plug on the P 64 1 is 1 inch NPS (National Pipe Straight), so it mates with a 1 inch straight-threaded service opening, not a tapered NPT port. Check the thread form on the box or carpet flange you're closing off before ordering, since straight and tapered threads of the same nominal size will cross-thread.
4) Will a Wiremold 828MAAP work in place of the Steel City P 64 1 cover plate?
No. The Wiremold 828MAAP is an audio/video adapter plate in sheet metal for the OmniBox series, intended to carry AV connectors in an OmniBox floor box. The Steel City P 64 1 is a flush service floor box cover plate with a 1 inch plug and no knockouts, used to close off a floor box service opening. Use the 828MAAP only where an OmniBox is installed and AV terminations are needed.
5) Do I need to order a plug separately, and how is this cover sold?
No separate plug needed, the 1 inch NPS plug is part of the assembly. The plate is sold each, so order one per floor box you're closing off.
6) I need a tamper-resistant brass floor box cover instead of a plugged flush plate. What else is there?
The P 64 1 is a plain flush plug plate, so it won't give you tamper resistance. For that, look at the Pass and Seymour TM1542 Series tamper-resistant brass floor box cover. If you're bringing audio/video connections up through the floor rather than sealing the box, the Wiremold 828MAAP adapter plate for the OmniBox series is the sheet metal A/V plate.
7) Can I use this cover to run conduit or a cable into the floor box?
No. The P 64 1 has no knockouts, and its single 1 inch NPS opening is closed by a threaded plug. It's for sealing an unused flush floor box, not for passing conduit or cable. For a device or A/V pass-through you need a service or adapter plate instead, such as the Wiremold 828MAAP adapter plate for OmniBox boxes.
8) Are Steel City P 64 1 cover plates made in the USA for projects with domestic sourcing requirements?
Country of origin on the P 64 1 is the United States, in both the brass and aluminum versions. That's the data point procurement officers on government and institutional jobs usually need for a domestic-preference submittal.
