SC-G Series Enclosure
The Wiegmann SC121208GNK is a NEMA 1 rated enclosure built from 16-gauge galvanized steel. It measures 12 inches high, 12 inches wide and 8 inches deep with a solid screw-on cover. Designed for indoor wall mounting, it suits electricians and panel builders who need a basic protective housing for circuit breakers or terminal blocks.
Upgrade from open wiring
This enclosure replaces exposed junction boxes or makeshift covers when code requires a listed cabinet. The jump is worth it when an inspector demands CSA and cULus certification or when dust and accidental contact become a concern. Embossed mounting holes and included self-tapping screws speed installation on standard stud spacing.
Capacity and headroom
The usable opening depth of 7.88 inches accommodates typical DIN-rail components and small breaker arrays. It runs out when deeper devices such as large contactors or multi-row terminal strips exceed that clearance. For those builds, a deeper cabinet or a NEMA 12 rated unit would be required.
Highlights
- Galvanised steel body resists corrosion
- NEMA 1 rating protects indoor equipment

- Embossed mounting holes simplify wall installation

Questions about this item
What wall-mount hardware do the embossed 16 ga mounting holes accept?
The embossed mounting holes are formed in the 16 ga galvanized steel body; use screws or bolts sized for the hole diameter and a flat washer to distribute load on the thin flange.
How do the plated self-tapping cover screws install without cross-threading?
Start each plated self-tapping screw by hand until it engages the cover threads, then drive slowly with a hand driver; the captive design keeps screws from falling out during alignment.
What upkeep does the galvanized finish and captive screw set require over time?
Inspect the galvanized surface annually for white rust, touch up any scratches with cold-galvanizing compound, and verify the captive plated screws turn freely; replace any that bind or show corrosion.
