Electrical enclosure Legrand 080053 IP65 3-phase 400V 12 modules

The Legrand 080053 electrical enclosure is designed for 3-phase 400V installations and accommodates up to 12 modular devices. With an IP65 ingress protection rating, the enclosure provides dust-tight protection and resistance to water jets, making it suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor electrical distribution points. Constructed for reliable mounting and wiring of circuit breakers, residual-current devices and other DIN-rail mounted components, this enclosure supports organized and secure installation of electrical equipment.

Advantages

The IP65-rated housing prevents dust penetration and withstands water jets, reducing the risk of component damage in demanding environments. Its capacity for 12 modules allows compact distribution configurations while keeping devices accessible for maintenance. The enclosure is compatible with standard DIN-rail mounting, enabling straightforward assembly and interchangeability of modular electrical devices. Built from durable materials, it maintains structural integrity under typical industrial and commercial conditions.

Suitable for

• Small industrial and commercial 3-phase distribution panels
• Control circuits and protection zones in workshops and light manufacturing
• Outdoor or semi-exposed electrical feed points with shelter or canopy
• Temporary power distribution for construction sites with covered installations

Key specifications

• Rated system: 3-phase, 400 V
• Module capacity: up to 12 modular devices
• Ingress protection: IP65 (dust-tight and protected against water jets)
• Mounting: DIN-rail compatible for modular components
• Suitable environment: indoor and sheltered outdoor locations

How to use

Mount the enclosure on a suitable flat surface or support using the manufacturer-recommended fasteners and ensuring adequate clearance for ventilation and cable entry. Install DIN-rail and secure modular devices such as breakers and RCDs according to their mounting instructions. Route incoming and outgoing cables through appropriate gland or conduit entries, maintaining correct cable management and separation of circuits. Ensure that seals and gaskets are correctly positioned to preserve the IP65 rating, and tighten all covers and fasteners to the specified torque values. Verify proper earthing of the enclosure and connected equipment before energizing the system.

Usage recommendations

Use this enclosure in environments where dust protection and resistance to water jets are required but where full submersion is not expected. Regularly inspect seals, cable entries and mounting points for wear or damage, and perform periodic maintenance on internal devices to ensure continued safe operation.
