6×6×48 in 16-gauge NEMA 3R enclosure

This Wiegmann screw-cover wiring trough is built from pre-galvanised steel with a galvanised finish. It provides a straight 48-inch run for cable management in commercial or industrial settings. The NEMA 3R rating makes it suitable for outdoor use where falling rain or sleet is a concern.

Indoor-only or knock-out dependent installs

Installers who need factory knock-outs for conduit entry will not find them on this unit. Projects requiring a painted ANSI 61 polyester surface should select a different model. The screw-cover design also means tool-less access is not available.

48 in usable depth with 5.78 in opening

The enclosure offers a 5.78-inch usable opening depth along its full 48-inch length, determining how much cable or busbar can be housed. Mounting holes are spaced on 28-inch centres for secure attachment. This single dimension set decides fit for the intended wire fill.

Questions about this item

How often will the 16-gauge galvanized steel need inspection or replacement under outdoor conditions?

The pre-galvanized 16-gauge steel with a galvanized finish and no paint is built for NEMA 3R outdoor exposure; periodic visual checks for coating integrity are recommended, but no scheduled replacement interval is defined by the enclosure itself.

What is the first capacity limit reached when filling the 6 × 6 × 48 in trough with cables?

The usable opening depth of 5.78 in and the fixed 6 × 48 in interior cross-section set the fill limit; NEMA/UL wire-fill tables for the conduit size used will be reached before the enclosure dimensions are exceeded.

Does the screw-cover design on the 48 in length create heat buildup or noise during continuous operation?

The unpainted galvanized steel dissipates heat passively, the screw cover has no gasket or moving parts, and there are no fans or active components, so the trough adds no audible noise or measurable temperature rise.
