Thomas & Betts LXWV-25 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many wires can I legally put in a Thomas & Betts LXWV-25 switch box?
The LXWV-25 is a 12.5 cubic inch single gang steel box. Box fill is calculated from that 12.5 cu in figure, and the clamp and the device both take deductions off it. For 14 AWG work that lands you in the range of a single device with a couple of cable runs; for 12 AWG it gets tight fast. If you are pulling three or more 12 AWG cables to one device, step up to a deeper or larger box rather than forcing this one.
2) Will this Thomas & Betts box work with NM (Romex) cable, or do I need armored cable?
It is built for non-metallic sheathed cable. The integrated clamp is a non-metallic C-5 type, which grips NM jacket without cutting it, and there are 2 bottom cable knockouts for the cable entries. If you are running MC or AC armored cable, you want a box with metallic clamps or you will need to land the armor with a separate connector through one of the conduit knockouts.
3) What are the actual box dimensions on the Thomas & Betts LXWV-25?
Stated dimensions are 3 inches length, 2 inches width, and 2-1/2 inches depth, which is the standard single gang switch box footprint in the deeper 2-1/2 inch profile. That depth is the thing to check: a 2x4 stud gives you 3-1/2 inches, so this leaves room, but it will not fit in a 2x2 furring wall or over a rigid insulation cavity.
4) What size conduit can I land on the LXWV-25 switch box?
Knockout layout on this galvanized steel switch box: one 1/2 inch conduit knockout on each side, one 1/2 inch on the bottom, and one 1-1/2 inch on each end. The 1/2 inch openings take standard EMT or flex connectors. The 1-1/2 inch end knockouts are there for ganging or large connectors, not for running 1-1/2 inch conduit into a 12.5 cu in box.
5) How does the CV bracket mount and does it set the box at the right depth for drywall?
The LXWV-25 comes with a CV bracket, a formed mounting bracket that nails or screws to the face of the stud and positions the box front for the wall finish. You do not need separate box supports or a bar hanger for standard stud framing. For old work into finished drywall, a bracketed box like this is the wrong choice; use a remodel box with swing ears instead.
6) Is the LXWV-25 sold individually or only by the case?
Unit of measure is each, with 25 boxes to the outer carton. Buyers stocking a truck or a job trailer typically take full cartons; the carton itself measures 19 by 8.25 by 7.75 inches.
7) Is a welded galvanized steel box better than a drawn one for commercial work?
The LXWV-25 uses welded construction with a galvanized steel finish. Welded corners hold square under fastener torque and rough handling on site, and the galvanizing is what buys corrosion resistance in damp or unconditioned spaces. Steel is also the choice when you need the box itself in the equipment grounding path, which a plastic box cannot do.
8) Is the Thomas & Betts LXWV-25 RoHS compliant?
No. The galvanized steel switch box is listed as not RoHS compliant. If you are specifying for a project with a RoHS requirement in the submittal, this one will not clear it.
