Modular distribution board ELEKTROPLAST RN-8 FALA 1x8 surface mount IP40

The ELEKTROPLAST RN-8 FALA 1x8 surface mount modular distribution board is designed to house up to eight DIN-rail mounted devices in a single row. Its compact, surface-mounted enclosure supports indoor installation in residential or light commercial environments and provides IP40 protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm. The unit accepts standard modular breakers and accessories, allowing organized circuit arrangement and straightforward access for maintenance and future expansion.

Advantages

The enclosure simplifies circuit organization by accommodating eight modules in one row, reducing installation footprint while keeping devices accessible. IP40-rated protection ensures basic defense against dust and contact, suitable for indoor locations. The design is compatible with standard DIN-rail components, enabling flexible configuration with widely available breakers and accessories. The surface-mount format speeds up installation where flush mounting is impractical.

Suitable for

• Small residential electrical installations and apartment breaker panels
• Light commercial premises such as offices, shops, and service rooms
• Renovation projects where surface mounting avoids wall rework
• Temporary or auxiliary power distribution points requiring compact modular panels

Key specifications

• Capacity: up to 8 modular devices in a single row
• Mounting type: surface-mounted enclosure
• Protection rating: IP40 (protection against solid objects >1 mm)
• Compatibility: accepts standard DIN-rail mounted breakers and modular accessories
• Application: indoor use for residential and light commercial settings

How to use

Mount the distribution board on a suitable flat interior surface using appropriate fasteners for the substrate. Install a standard DIN rail inside the enclosure if not pre-fitted, then fit modular breakers and accessories onto the rail according to the electrical design. Ensure all incoming and outgoing conductors are terminated correctly and that the enclosure cover is secured after wiring. Follow local electrical codes and switch off power during installation and maintenance.

Usage recommendations

Use this distribution board indoors in dry environments and avoid exposure to water or heavy dust. Select breakers and accessories that match the circuit ratings and comply with applicable standards. For installations involving larger loads or increased environmental protection requirements, choose an enclosure with a higher IP rating and appropriate thermal considerations.
