JC-LGL dc6d323f-39a2-49c1-8b98-da547eb9146a 1-Gang Weatherproof Outlet Box

For a wiring project that needs an outdoor junction point or a sheltered place for a receptacle, switch or GFCI, the JC-LGL 1-gang outlet box brings conduit connections and weather protection together in one compact enclosure. Its non-metallic, impact-resistant plastic construction is designed for wet, damp or dry locations, while the grey, powder-coated finish helps resist corrosion.

The box works with 1/2 in. or 3/4 in. conduit, giving you a practical way to match the enclosure to the conduit used in your wiring layout.

Worth noting

This weatherproof box can serve as a junction for conduit runs or house a receptacle, switch or GFCI. That flexibility is useful when the same installation needs an enclosure for a connection point or a device. The product is UL Listed and identified as suitable for wet locations, so it is designed for applications where exposure to rain and dirt is a consideration.

The 3/4 in. threaded hubs accommodate 3/4 in. conduit, and the included reducer bushings adapt the hubs for 1/2 in. conduit. Three 3/4 in. closure plugs and five screws are also included. Compared with a basic enclosure that requires separate reducers and plugs, these supplied fittings help make it easier to configure the box for the conduit connections in your layout. The package contains one box.

How it fits

Choose this enclosure when your wiring plan calls for a single-gang box connected to 1/2 in. or 3/4 in. conduit. For example, it can provide a weatherproof junction point along a conduit run, or house a compatible receptacle, switch or GFCI where a device is needed. The reducer bushings let the 3/4 in. hubs work with 1/2 in. conduit, while the closure plugs close unused hubs. This makes the box a flexible fit for projects using either of those conduit sizes.

Its compact format suits installations where a one-gang enclosure is appropriate. The grey finish offers a neutral appearance for exterior or utility-area installations, and the plastic construction provides an impact-resistant, non-metallic enclosure with corrosion resistance.

How to use it

Plan the box position and conduit route first, then select the included reducer bushings or closure plugs to suit the connections being used. Use the box as a conduit junction, or install a compatible receptacle, switch or GFCI according to the device and wiring requirements. Secure the enclosure with the supplied screws and make the conduit connections at the threaded hubs. Electrical work should follow the applicable local code and be completed by someone qualified for the task.

When it makes sense

This JC-LGL box is a useful choice for a project that needs a single-gang, weatherproof enclosure with options for both 1/2 in. and 3/4 in. conduit. Its included reducers and closure plugs support different hub configurations, while the impact-resistant plastic body and wet-location suitability make it appropriate for outdoor or other damp environments. Choose it when you want one enclosure to serve as a conduit junction or to house a receptacle, switch or GFCI.
