The KOR SMB20160 is a 4" × 4" × 1½" octagon box offering 15 cubic inches of wiring capacity, suitable for ceiling and wall outlet box applications in standard residential and light commercial installations. The integrated clamp simplifies cable entry and secures NM/romex-style wiring without the need for separate connectors. Note: Always verify cubic-inch requirements against the number and gauge of conductors, devices, and clamps per CSA/CEC fill-calculation rules before installation — contact us if you need help selecting the right box size for your application.
Under CSA/CEC box-fill rules, each conductor, device, and fitting counts toward the total cubic-inch requirement. As a general guide, a 14 AWG conductor counts as 2 cu. in. and a 12 AWG conductor counts as 2.25 cu. in. With 15 cu. in., the SMB20160 is typically suited for lighter wiring runs — count all your conductors, clamps, and devices before confirming fit. Our team is happy to help if you're unsure.
The integrated clamp on the KOR SMB20160 is designed primarily for NM (romex-style) cable. For armoured cable (AC/BX) or flexible conduit, a dedicated connector fitting is generally recommended to ensure a secure, code-compliant connection. Contact us and we can advise on compatible fittings for your specific cable type.
Standard octagon boxes like the SMB20160 are rated for lighting fixture support but are not independently rated for ceiling fan installations, which require a fan-rated brace or box specifically listed for that purpose. If you need a fan-rated octagon box or brace, reach out to our team and we'll help you find the right solution.
