2-Gang Steel Square Electrical Box

The RACO 247 is a 29.5 cu in steel square box designed for two-gang device mounting in residential or commercial wiring projects. Its UL Listing confirms compliance with recognised safety standards for electrical enclosures.

Knock-out layout for conduit entry

The box provides three 1/2 in. and two 3/4 in. back knockouts plus eight 1/2 in. and four 3/4 in. side knockouts, allowing flexible conduit or cable routing without additional drilling. The 1 1/2 in. nominal depth leaves room for device bodies and wire fill.

Steel construction under continuous load

The galvanised steel body resists deformation when devices are torqued to specification and maintains grounding continuity during sustained circuit operation. The rigid square profile keeps knockouts aligned for repeated connector installation.

Questions about this item

How many 1/2 in. and 3/4 in. knockouts does the RACO 247 box provide for conduit entry?

It has 11 half-inch knockouts — three on the back and eight on the sides — plus six three-quarter-inch knockouts, two on the back and four on the sides.

How much heat does the steel box dissipate when circuits run continuously?

The steel enclosure acts as a passive heat sink; with 29.5 cu in of internal volume it allows air circulation around conductors so temperature rise stays within UL limits.

What mounting hardware must I already have to install this square box?

No bracket is included, so you need screws or bolts suited to the surface — wood, metal stud, or masonry — plus a compatible cover plate for the two-gang opening.
