Steel City H 54561 1/2 3/4 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What knockout sizes come on the H 54561 octagon box?
Two configurations are made: one with combination 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch knockouts (H 54561 1/2 3/4) and one with 3/4 inch only (H 54561 3/4). If you are running 1/2 inch EMT or 14/2 and 12/2 NM with 1/2 inch connectors, take the combination version. If everything entering the box is 3/4 inch raceway, the 3/4 inch version keeps it simple.
2) Will a standard 4 inch round or octagon fixture canopy and cover fit this box?
Yes. The opening is 101.6mm, which is 4 inches, the standard octagon/round trim size, so 4 inch octagon covers, blank plates, fan canopies and fixture crossbars with the usual 2-3/4 inch screw spacing land on it.
3) Is the H 54561 a new-work box for framing, or a remodel box for a finished ceiling?
It's a box for built-in mounting in a wall or ceiling, meaning it goes in before the finish surface, fastened to framing or a bar hanger. For an existing finished ceiling where you cannot get above the drywall, you want an old-work/remodel box with spring ears instead.
4) Is this octagon box steel or plastic, and can it be used as the equipment ground path?
Steel, finished silver. Because the enclosure is metallic, bonding is made to the box itself rather than to a separate device yoke only, so it works with metal raceway systems as well as with NM cable using a grounding screw or clip.
5) How many H 54561 boxes are in a case for a multi-unit job?
They pack 20 to the outer carton, which is the count to work from when you are ordering by the ceiling for an apartment or hotel rough-in.
