Distribution enclosure ELEKTROPLAST RN-12 FALA 1x12 surface-mounted IP40 (MPN 7.3)

ELEKTROPLAST RN-12 FALA is a surface-mounted modular distribution enclosure with a single row for 12 modules and an IP40 protection rating. Intended for mounting circuit breakers and modular protection devices on a DIN rail, this compact enclosure provides organized housing for electrical circuits in residential and light-commercial environments. The enclosure's design allows straightforward access to wiring and components while maintaining basic protection against accidental contact and small foreign objects.

Advantages

The RN-12 FALA offers a compact footprint that saves wall space and simplifies installation in utility rooms, basements, and service cabinets. Its modular layout supports standard DIN-rail devices, enabling flexible configuration and straightforward expansion or replacement of circuit breakers and protective modules. The surface-mounted design removes the need for recessed mounting, while the IP40 rating ensures protection appropriate for indoor dry locations and routine maintenance access.

Suitable for

• Small residential distribution boards for apartments and houses
• Light-commercial installations such as offices and retail premises
• Retrofit projects where surface mounting is preferred
• Housing DIN-rail circuit breakers, RCDs, and modular protection devices

Key specifications

• Mounting type: surface-mounted
• Module capacity: 1 row × 12 modules
• Protection rating: IP40 (suitable for indoor dry locations)
• Compatibility: standard DIN-rail mounted modular devices
• Application: residential and light-commercial electrical distribution

How to use

Mount the enclosure on a suitable flat vertical surface using appropriate fasteners for the substrate. Install a standard DIN rail inside the enclosure if not pre-fitted, then snap-fit the modular circuit breakers and protective devices in the single row designed for 12 modules. Route incoming and outgoing conductors through the designated cable entry points, secure wiring with appropriate terminals and follow local wiring regulations. Ensure the cover is closed after wiring to maintain protection and prevent accidental contact.

Usage recommendations

Install and service the enclosure only with the supply disconnected. Use devices with compatible widths and DIN-rail mounting. For locations exposed to moisture, dust, or outdoor conditions, select an enclosure with a higher ingress protection rating. Verify local electrical codes and consult a qualified electrician for installation and configuration.
