I am designing a project where we will have a lot of block walls. There will be a lot of outlets, switches, etc. that are flush mounted. Some of the areas will be hose down.
I'm not sure what type of boxes to specify. I am also worried about how the contractor will fasten the boxes. I don't want them falling out in a few years.
I am thinking of using metal boxes with a baked on epoxy paint in the hose-down areas. Boxes like Pass & Seymour WPB23.
P & S catalog
But I don't know how these would be mounted in a block wall.
In other areas, I'm not sure if I should stick with the weatherproof boxes, or allow your typical steel boxes, or if regular plastic boxes can be used.
Thanks in advance:
Steve
