Box Size for Furniture Infeed

[faresos]

What size of recessed box needed for 8-wire system furniture infeed? I think 4x4x2 1/8" will work but I thought I just confirm.

Thanks!

What the size and total number of conductors that will be inside the box?

It will be 8 # 12's. I assume the splicing will occur at the junction box above the ceiling before they run it down the wall to the infeed box.

According to Table 314.16(A) the box you've mentioned will hold (13) #12 AWG conductors.
