Shallow Switch and Outlet Box

The P108W is not rated for use with MC type cable.

Here are the dimensions for P108W: Height: 3 3/4" Width: 2 5/16" Depth: 1 1/8"

Thank you for your inquiry regarding our P108W. This box has a depth of 1.125" so it could be used in such an application. But please be sure to verify with your local code authority.

Thank you for your question regarding Pass & Seymour SHALLOW SWITCH AND OUTLET BOX(Model # P108W). Our non-tamper resistant GFCI's have a depth of 1.03" and we're not aware of any specific rule that quantifies minimum depth. The old standby is that per NEC 110.12 – “Electrical equipment shall be installed in a neat and workmanlike manner”. So if the box is too shallow or too small, there are multiple wires and wire nuts, multiple wire entries / fittings, and the device is crushing wire insulation, or is bulging out of the wall, the AHJ can reject the installation strictly on “workmanship”.

Thank you for your inquiry regarding our P108W. This box has a depth of 1.125". Our TR5252 has a depth of .93". Therefore, the device will fit in the box. If there are a couple wire nuts behind the receptacle, it may be a tight squeeze. There will not be a ton of room to work with but the devices will certainly work together. Hope this helps!
