Buster and Punch 2-Gang Metal Back Box

Buster and Punch 2-Gang Metal Back Box is a flush-mount electrical back box from the United Kingdom. The double-gang metal frame is intended to house two standard electrical modules side-by-side and provides a robust mounting point for sockets, switches or dimmers.

The box is open-fronted and rectangular with a standard double-width format to accept two modules. Multiple pre-cut circular knockouts on the back and sides allow versatile cable entry, while integrated mounting lugs and an adjustable sliding lug help level and secure a faceplate during installation.

Constructed from galvanized steel, the back box has a rigid build and visible fixing points on the rear for secure attachment to the wall substrate. The inner rear panel is stamped with the name 'APPLEBY', a manufacturing mark visible on the product.

Functionally this back box provides safe recessing of wiring and a stable fixing for decorative faceplates and accessories. The variety of knockouts supports conduit or direct cable entry from the rear or sides, making it suitable for typical domestic and commercial electrical fittings.

For installation the back box is designed for flush mounting and will require compatible faceplates and electrical modules, which are supplied separately. Fixing screw points and mounting lugs are provided; installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with local wiring regulations. A 2-year manufacturer warranty covers the product.
