Modular Junction Box ELEKTROPLAST EP-LUX PLUS RN 1/6 IP55 surface-mounted, 1 row × 6 modules (1960-01)

Surface-mounted modular junction box ELEKTROPLAST EP-LUX PLUS RN 1/6 is a compact enclosure designed to hold a single row of six DIN-rail modules or miniature circuit breakers. The box provides IP55 protection against dust and water jets, offering a sealed environment for electrical distribution in residential and light-commercial installations. Its surface-mounted design simplifies installation where flush mounting is not possible or desirable, and the organized single-row layout helps keep wiring accessible and easy to maintain.

Advantages

The unit’s IP55 rating ensures protection from dust ingress and water jets, making it suitable for indoor spaces that may require occasional cleaning or exposure to damp conditions. The single-row, six-module configuration provides a compact footprint while allowing clear separation of circuits. The surface-mounted housing is designed for straightforward attachment to walls or panels and allows easy access to DIN-rail-mounted components for inspection or replacement. Materials used in the enclosure resist corrosion and provide electrical insulation for installed devices.

Suitable for

• Small residential distribution boards and subcircuits
• Light-commercial electrical panels in offices or retail spaces
• Retrofit installations where surface mounting is required
• Locations requiring a dust- and water-resistant enclosure (IP55)

Key specifications

• Configuration: single row for 6 modular units
• Protection rating: IP55 (dust protected, water jets)
• Mounting type: surface-mounted enclosure
• Compatibility: DIN-rail mounted modular devices and miniature circuit breakers
• Typical applications: residential and light-commercial electrical distribution

How to use

Mount the enclosure securely to a stable wall or panel using appropriate fasteners for the substrate. Install a standard DIN rail inside the box if not pre-fitted, then clip modular devices such as circuit breakers or residual-current devices onto the rail in the single row of six module spaces. Route incoming and outgoing conductors through the provided cable entries or glands, observing proper cable stripping, termination and torque values specified by the device manufacturers. Ensure that all devices are correctly rated for the intended circuits and that protective covers are closed before energizing the panel.

Usage recommendations

Ensure compliance with local electrical codes and standards when installing and using the enclosure. Use appropriately sized breakers and protective devices for each circuit, and leave sufficient space for wiring and future modifications. Periodically inspect seals, gaskets and fastenings to maintain IP55 performance.
