ELEKTROPLAST RHp-18/Z Flush-Mounted Modular Distribution Board 1x18 IP65 with Lock

The ELEKTROPLAST RHp-18/Z is a robust flush-mounted modular distribution board engineered to house up to 18 electrical modules in a single row. Designed for professional electrical installations, this enclosure combines high-grade materials with a functional design to ensure the safe organization and protection of circuit breakers, residual current devices, and other modular components. With its IP65 ingress protection rating, the unit is fully sealed against dust ingress and protected against low-pressure water jets, making it a reliable choice for environments where moisture or debris may be present.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this distribution board is its high level of environmental resistance, which allows for installation in challenging areas such as garages, workshops, or semi-outdoor spaces. The flush-mounted design ensures a clean, aesthetic finish that integrates seamlessly into wall surfaces, saving space and reducing visual clutter. The inclusion of a secure lock provides an essential layer of safety, preventing unauthorized access to sensitive electrical components. Furthermore, the modular layout is optimized for ease of installation, allowing for efficient wiring and maintenance of electrical circuits.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical distribution systems
• Commercial building installations
• Workshops and garages requiring dust and moisture protection
• Outdoor-adjacent areas where IP65 protection is necessary

When it may not be suitable

This distribution board is not intended for use in environments requiring higher than IP65 protection, such as areas subject to full submersion or high-pressure water cleaning. It is also not suitable for surface-mounted applications, as it is specifically designed to be recessed into a wall.

Key specifications

• Capacity: 18 modules in 1 row
• Mounting type: Flush-mounted
• Ingress protection rating: IP65
• Security: Integrated lock
• Application: Indoor and sheltered outdoor use

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical regulations. The enclosure is designed to be recessed into a prepared wall cavity. Once the housing is securely fixed, the DIN rail allows for the snap-in mounting of modular devices. Wiring should be routed through the provided cable entry points, ensuring that all seals are properly tightened to maintain the IP65 rating. After the internal components are connected and tested, the front cover is attached and secured using the integrated lock.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the wall thickness is sufficient for a flush-mounted installation.
• Verify that the number of modules required for your project does not exceed 18.
• Check the dimensions of the wall cutout against the product specifications.
• Confirm that the IP65 rating meets the specific environmental requirements of your installation site.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the enclosure for any signs of damage to the seals or the locking mechanism to ensure continued protection against dust and moisture. Keep the key to the lock in a safe, accessible location for authorized maintenance personnel.
