Distribution board (flush-mounted) Eti-Polam ECG56 DIDO 001101028 — modular 48+8 ways, white, metal door, IP40

The Eti-Polam ECG56 DIDO flush-mounted distribution board provides modular housing for up to 48+8 DIN-rail devices in a recessed enclosure. Finished in white with a metal door and an IP40 protection rating, the unit is designed to accommodate circuit breakers, residual-current devices and other standard modular protection and control components. Its recessed design keeps the installation flush with the wall surface and the metal door offers a robust, neat appearance suitable for residential and light commercial interiors.

Advantages

The distribution board offers a high module capacity in a single recessed unit, simplifying centralisation of protective and switching devices. The white housing and metal door combine durability with a discreet look that matches typical interior finishes. IP40 protection provides basic defense against solid objects and incidental contact while allowing ventilation for heat dissipation. The metal door improves mechanical resistance and helps maintain a consistent appearance over time.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical installations where multiple modular devices must be grouped in one recessed panel
• Small commercial or office spaces requiring an organized distribution point with a flush finish
• Retrofit projects where a clean, wall-level panel is preferred over surface-mounted solutions
• Installations using standard DIN-rail circuit breakers, RCDs and modular accessories

When it may not be suitable

This distribution board has an IP40 rating, which offers basic protection against solid objects but does not provide dust-tight or moisture-resistant performance. It is therefore not appropriate for damp, outdoor, industrial or heavily dusty environments where a higher IP rating is required. Also, if a greater degree of ingress protection, tamper resistance or lockable access is necessary, a different enclosure with those features should be selected.

Key specifications

• Modular capacity: 48+8 module positions on DIN-rail
• Mounting type: flush/recessed installation
• Door: metal finish, white exterior
• Protection rating: IP40
• Intended use: housing for DIN-rail modular protection and switching devices

How to use

Install the distribution board into a prepared wall cavity according to local electrical codes and manufacturer cut-out dimensions. Secure the enclosure to the wall structure, route incoming and outgoing conductors through the appropriate knockouts or cable entry points, and fit DIN-rail mounted devices into the available module positions. Ensure all connections are made by a qualified electrician, verify proper clearances and label circuits for future maintenance. After wiring and inspection, close the metal door for a finished flush appearance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required number of module positions and allow space for future expansion
• Confirm that IP40 protection level is adequate for the intended location
• Check wall cavity depth and cut-out dimensions for recessed mounting compatibility
• Ensure compatibility with the intended DIN-rail modular devices (breaker widths and spacing)

Usage recommendations

Use this distribution board in indoor, dry environments such as homes, apartments and small offices. For safe and code-compliant installation, have a licensed electrician perform the mounting and wiring, and plan circuit layout to leave spare module positions for future additions.
