Electrical Enclosure 6x6x6
The Hoffman ASG6X6X6NK is a carbon-steel electrical enclosure measuring six inches high, wide and deep. It carries a NEMA Type 1 and IP30 rating for indoor protection against solid objects. The galvanized grey finish resists corrosion in dry commercial or light-industrial settings. Captive screw latches secure the solid cover while integral mounting holes simplify wall installation.
Indoor Wiring Junctions
This enclosure suits electricians and panel builders terminating conduit or housing terminal blocks inside climate-controlled rooms. The screw-on cover and 12/14/16 gauge steel provide rigid protection for wire splices and small control components. Installers needing wash-down resistance, outdoor UV exposure or hazardous-location certification should select a higher-rated enclosure instead. The IP30 rating does not protect against water ingress.
NEMA Type 1 and IP30 Rating
The single specification that decides suitability is the NEMA Type 1 and IP30 rating, which limits use to indoor, non-hazardous locations without liquid exposure. UL 50 and 50E listing plus cUL certification to CSA C22.2 No 40 confirm compliance for general-purpose wiring enclosures. Verify the rating matches the installation environment before specifying this box.

Questions about this item
How much heat can the 12/14/16 ga carbon-steel enclosure dissipate before internal temperatures rise?
The solid galvanized steel box relies on natural convection through its IP30-rated walls; no active cooling or thermal-limit rating is published.
What audible noise or surface temperature should I expect after continuous operation?
The enclosure itself generates no noise or heat; any warmth or sound comes from the components you install inside.
Which mounting hardware and cover screws are required to secure the box to a wall?
The box includes captive cover screws and pre-drilled mounting holes; you supply wall anchors or bolts suited to the mounting surface.
