Modular Distribution Box ELEKTROPLAST MSF RN 1x12 PE+N metal IP30 white (model 2001-11)

Modular Distribution Box ELEKTROPLAST MSF RN 1x12 PE+N metal IP30 white is a compact indoor electrical enclosure designed to house up to twelve DIN-rail modules and a combined protective earth (PE) and neutral (N) terminal. Constructed from metal with IP30 protection, this distribution box organizes circuit breakers and protective devices in residential or commercial installations while providing a dedicated point for earthing and neutral connections. Its neutral/earth terminal and single-row layout simplify wiring and help maintain a tidy electrical cabinet.

Advantages

The metal housing provides mechanical strength and stable mounting for DIN-rail components, while IP30 protection ensures basic safety for indoor use. The single-row 12-module capacity is suitable for small to medium distribution needs, and the integrated PE+N terminal reduces the number of separate connection points required. The white finish offers a neutral appearance for visible indoor installations and the design supports straightforward installation and wiring management.

Suitable for

• Small residential breaker panels and meter cupboards
• Small commercial or office electrical distributions
• Retrofit projects where a compact single-row enclosure is needed
• Situations requiring combined PE and N connection in one terminal

When it may not be suitable

This distribution box is intended for indoor applications and provides IP30 protection, which does not protect against water ingress or outdoor exposure. For larger installations requiring more than twelve DIN-rail modules, multiple rows, increased ingress protection, or additional accessory space, a larger or multi-row enclosure would be more suitable. The single-row layout may limit future expansion in systems expected to grow substantially.

Key specifications

• Enclosure material: metal housing
• Protection rating: IP30 (suitable for indoor use)
• Module capacity: single row, up to 12 DIN-rail modules
• Terminal arrangement: combined PE and N terminal
• Color/finish: white
• Mounting: wall-mounted enclosure with internal DIN rail

How to use

Mount the distribution box on a suitable wall or inside a meter cabinet at a height that complies with local electrical regulations. Fix the enclosure securely using appropriate fasteners for the substrate. Install DIN-rail modules such as miniature circuit breakers or residual current devices onto the internal DIN rail and connect line conductors to the device terminals. Use the combined PE+N terminal for earthing and neutral conductor terminations following wiring diagrams and local codes. Ensure all terminals are tightened to manufacturer-recommended torque values and that the enclosure cover is closed before re-energizing the circuit.

What to consider before purchase

• Required number of DIN-rail modules and possible future expansion needs
• Indoor location and suitability of IP30 protection for the installation environment
• Compatibility of the internal DIN rail and spacing with intended protective devices
• Local electrical regulations for earthing/neutral arrangements and enclosure mounting

Usage recommendations

Follow local electrical codes when connecting PE and N conductors and ensure separation or bridging is performed only as allowed by regulations. Use a torque screwdriver for terminal tightening and leave clearance around the enclosure for heat dissipation and maintenance access.
