The most common use for a 1 gang box is to house a single electrical switch or outlet. It's perfect for rooms where only one device is needed, like a light switch in a small closet or a power outlet in a hallway. For modern homes or offices, these boxes can be used to install Ethernet, telephone, or coaxial cable outlets. This is especially useful for creating a dedicated internet or TV connection point. If you're installing smart home devices like a smart light switch or a Wi-Fi-enabled thermostat, a 1 gang box provides the necessary space and connection to the home's electrical system.
