Metalbox flush-mounted distribution boxes with white finish

This Metalbox subcategory houses electrical distribution devices in homes, offices and shops. The boxes combine a thermoplastic box and cover with a white metal frame and door. They are intended for indoor flush mounting; select the reference according to the wall and available dimensions.

Capacity and board preparation

The range offers 14, 28, 42 and 56 modules. The removable chassis helps prepare devices and wiring before installation. Size the box by adding the devices’ modular widths, allowing for expansion and checking wiring space and each model’s thermal dissipation. Module count alone does not state the circuit count or the board’s electrical power.

What to check before installation

  • Opening and wall: compare flush dimensions, depth and fixing method with the intended wall. Hollow-wall versions require the appropriate reference and fixings.
  • Operating conditions: check IP40, IK07 and other ratings in the data sheet. IP40 provides no water protection and is not dust-tight.
  • Components: check DIN rails, terminals and other included parts by reference. A box is not an equipped board with circuit breakers and residual current devices.

Finishes, accessories and documentation

For a graphite frame and door, consult Metalbox Stile. To complete the installation, review Metalbox accessories and compatibility. Solera technical documents provide resources for checking dimensions, contents and instructions for the selected reference. For an equipped board or a project-specific assembly, request a quotation for a special assembly.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose between 14, 28, 42 and 56 modules?

Consider device space, planned expansion, wiring and the assembly’s thermal assessment.

Is an IP40 Metalbox suitable for outdoor use?

It is intended for indoor use. Water or demanding environmental exposure requires an enclosure with suitable ratings.

Can it be surface mounted?

Dedicated surface frames are available for compatible boxes. Check the reference combination and instructions before choosing the installation.
