Surface-mounted junction box ELEKTROPLAST 6-outlet IP55 without insert for 5 x 2.5 mm² (0226-00)

Surface-mounted junction box ELEKTROPLAST 6-outlet IP55 without insert for 5 x 2.5 mm² (0226-00) is a weather- and dust-resistant enclosure designed for surface electrical installations. The box provides six cable outlets and accepts conductors or terminal blocks for up to five cores of 2.5 mm² cross-section. Constructed to meet IP55 protection, it is suitable for applications where protection from dust ingress and low-pressure water jets is required, offering a compact and practical solution for routing and connecting wires on walls or other surfaces.

Advantages

The enclosure is designed for straightforward surface mounting and accommodates multiple cable entries without an internal insert, allowing flexible installation of terminals or direct cable splicing. Its IP55 rating ensures reliable protection against dust and splashing water, which makes the box suitable for exposed or damp environments. The robust housing and simple internal space enable easy access for routing, inspection and maintenance of connections.

Suitable for

• Surface-mounted electrical connections on walls and panels
• Outdoor installations with protection from dust and rain spray
• Wet or damp indoor areas such as basements, utility rooms and garages
• Distribution and routing of cables with up to 5 conductors of 2.5 mm²
• Temporary or permanent junction points for lighting and small power circuits

Key specifications

• Configuration: surface-mounted junction box with six outlets
• Protection rating: IP55 (dust protected, water jets)
• Internal accommodation: suitable for conductors up to 5 × 2.5 mm²
• Design: enclosure without internal insert for flexible terminal or cable arrangements
• Material and finish: durable non-metallic housing designed for external and internal use

How to use

Mount the box to a flat surface using appropriate screws and wall plugs for the substrate, ensuring the enclosure is aligned and securely fastened. Route cables through the designated outlets, prepare conductor ends and install terminal blocks or perform splices inside the housing according to applicable wiring regulations. Close the cover and secure all fasteners to restore the IP55 protection, paying attention to gasket position and sealing around cable entries when required. Verify mechanical stability and perform an insulation and continuity test after installation.

Usage recommendations

Use cable glands or appropriate sealing accessories where required to maintain IP55 protection when cables exit the enclosure. Avoid locating the box in areas exposed to direct high-pressure water jets or chemical environments not compatible with non-metallic housings. Follow local electrical codes for conductor sizing, connection methods and earthing practices.
