Hello, Can someone tell me the depth of the Switch, I'm trying to buy a Surface Mount Backbox that will fit???

It is quite deep and the terminals are on the very back. I had trouble finding a handy box from the big box stores to fit this as I actually mounted this in a wall in my shop. I eventually did find a handy box that fit it at the big orange store. It was one of the rigid plastic ones that was tan in color. There still wasn't much clearance but I did manage to get all the wiring to fit. I was unable to find a source for a box for surface mounting this. The box that holds this same switch on my bandsaw cracked and I wanted to replace it but couldn't find one so I used heavy tape to shore up the one I had.

Have this switch installed on a machine right now. Box measures 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" x 3" deep. Hope this helps.

I'll try. The "mount" part of the unit (black part the outlet mounts to) is 3" wide by 4.5" high and 1" deep. The clear cover is 4" wide by 6" high and 2" deep. With the standard electrical box I mounted it to, the overall depth is 5.5". At first it seemed way too big and bulky, but after mounting nine around and on my deck, they fit it pretty well. Hope that helps.....

It takes up a pci slot. However i find that the power from that switch (thats all it is) is too short to plug in anywhere . Its only like 6" long..and the sticky mounts suck

The switch box it self is fairly large. About 2in by 2in the switch lever it about 4 inches long .5 in wide and .25 in thick

I have mine surface mounted. It sticks out 4 and 3/4". It looks great. There's mirrored panels for the sides. Good quality. I couldn't be happier with this item.

I agree with comment (1) as this is the answer I would have given. i.e.Both pieces are the same size, except the terminal screws extend from the switch side. The moulded parts are 1/2" deep - 2-3/16" long and 1/2" high including the 1/32" thick foam adhesive. mounting centre distance 1-3/4". total depth with screws and wire under the screws is 5/8".

The unit takes up the space of a standard switch. Go to any decent sized hardware store and you should be able to find a cover plate with the large rectangular hole in the middle and two standard slots for light switches on either side. If you can't the do make modular covers. You'd buy the section with the large rectangular hole and two "end sections" which have the smaller slots. They snap together and screw into place as usual

It's been in my truck for awhile but I believe the mounting depth was 5 1/4. I have the fosgate P1's in there now

I'm not using the edge mount in my application, however it can accommodate quite a thick desk surface up to 2" at least... I will dig one out tomorrow at work and take a photo to post here.

It comes with two L shaped brackets. If I remember correctly they're around 4 or 5". The switch is 11.6" so I think it will mount in a 19" rack. If not it wouldn't be hard to modify the backets.

Don't know how far wall mount protrudes from wall. Ports are recessed about 1/2 inch into back. You could measure wall mount and add 1/2 inch to see if it fits.

My switch is about 2.5 to 2 3/4 inches long 1 1/4 inches deep and 3/4 inch wide.Don't know what numbers you have.

That black plate in the back is designed to fit on a 1-gang electrical box, same as a wall switch cover. It's 4-3/8 L x 2-5/8 W and 1/2 thick. The red cover is just a little bigger.

3/4 inch hole. And it won't fit into a simple 3/4 inch hole. The switch has a little bump to prevent the switch from spinning around in the hole. So make sure you cut out a little notch too. Do not make it bigger than. 3/4 or it defeats the purpose.

I agree with Edward and Pilot in that both pieces are the same size, the switch side depth being a bit larger due to screws protruding. Length, height, and depth as already said. However, when I measure mounting slot centers on this thing with a 6 inch metal scale, I get 1-13/16" center-to-center (or about 1.8"). So, two holes spaced at 1-13/16" (or 1.8") is what is needed for mounting. Also, measuring the slot width (for screw), slot width is about .12", so 3/32" (.094") screws will work

Not designed for surface mount. Intended to be flushed with drywall. It will look ugly if you just screwed it on the wall.

Check out the website for this switch. Google it. I believe it documents all the specs.
