What is the difference between the 21mm and 32mm backboxes?

The 21mm version is single-gang and measures 85.5 × 85.5 × 21mm overall. The 32mm version is double-gang and measures 145.5 × 85.5 × 32mm.

The single-gang box is used with our 1- and 2-way outlet kits, while the double-gang box is used with the 3- and 4-way versions.
