Choosing an electrical cabinet

We offer a range of electrical cabinets with several materials: plastic electrical cabinet, metal electrical cabinet or stainless-steel electrical cabinets. The choice depends on the use and on the sector.

Metal electrical cabinets in sheet metal are the most used in the industry because they are strong and resistant. They are also less sensitive to external disturbances than a plastic cabinet for example.

The plastic electrical cabinet has the double advantage to be lighter and cheaper than a metal electrical cabinet.

Finally, stainless steel electrical cabinets are especially aimed for the food industry as they are more resistant over time and do not rust.

We offer several formats of electrical boxes such as metal boxes with a cap or boxes with a double door for every use. All our electrical distribution cabinets are shipped with a solid bottom sheet metal and have CE marking.

Content of an electrical cabinet

The composition of your box depends on your needs and on the power of the installation. Your electrical cabinet can be composed of several electrical protection devices such as circuit breakers, residual current devices or isolating switches to ensure the safety of users.

If you wish to install electrical distribution terminals to connect electric cables, you first need to install a DIN rail to fix them.

You will find on our website all the essential accessories to compose for your electrical enclosure. All our products are shipped within 24/48h.
