Surface-mounted junction box ELEKTROPLAST E115AB-UL005 IP42 85×85×35 mm

Surface-mounted junction box ELEKTROPLAST E115AB-UL005 is a plastic enclosure designed for indoor electrical installations. With external dimensions of 85×85×35 mm and an IP42 protection rating, the box provides basic protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm and against vertically falling water drops. It is intended for mounting electrical connections, switches or sockets on walls and for organising cable runs within residential and commercial interiors.

Advantages

The enclosure is lightweight and corrosion-resistant thanks to its plastic construction, simplifying installation and long-term maintenance. Its compact footprint of 85×85×35 mm allows placement in confined spaces while providing sufficient internal volume for standard terminal blocks and cable entries. The IP42 rating ensures protection appropriate for indoor environments where minimal exposure to water is expected. The product’s straightforward form factor supports compatibility with common surface-mounted switches and sockets.

Suitable for

• Surface mounting electrical connections in residential interiors
• Mounting switches or sockets on walls where recessed installation is not possible
• Cable routing and junctions in offices, utility rooms, and corridors
• Temporary or retrofit installations requiring a compact enclosure

Key specifications

• Material: plastic enclosure
• Ingress protection: IP42 (protection from solid objects >1 mm and vertical water drops)
• External dimensions: 85 × 85 × 35 mm
• Mounting type: surface-mounted
• Application: indoor electrical installations, cable junctions, switch/socket mounting

How to use

Mount the junction box on a stable wall surface using appropriate screws or anchors for the substrate. Route incoming and outgoing cables through the box openings or create entries according to local wiring practices. Fit terminal blocks, switches, or sockets inside the enclosure as required, ensuring secure mechanical and electrical connections. Close the lid and fasten all screws to maintain the protection level; verify that cable insulation and connections comply with applicable electrical safety standards before energising the circuit.

Usage recommendations

Use this surface-mounted junction box only for indoor applications and in environments where vertical water exposure is minimal. Maintain free internal space to avoid overcrowding terminal connections and follow local wiring regulations and safety guidelines when performing installations.
