Flush-mounted Junction Box Schneider Electric MT-P1280-D46-B, model MT-P1280-D46-B

Schneider Electric MT-P1280-D46-B is a flush-mounted junction box designed to provide a recessed enclosure for switches, sockets and wiring splices. The box enables concealed installation of electrical devices and termination points inside walls, creating a secure mounting location with organized cable entry. It is engineered for standard residential and commercial electrical installations that require a compact, in-wall solution for low-voltage and mains wiring connections.

Advantages

The flush-mounted design reduces protrusion from the wall surface and allows for clean, finished installations. Constructed from durable, non-conductive material, the junction box provides mechanical protection for cable joints and secured devices while helping to maintain electrical safety. Its standardized dimensions make it compatible with a range of switch and socket modules and simplify on-site fitting and alignment during installation.

Suitable for

• Recessed mounting of wall switches and power sockets
• Concealing wiring splices in residential interiors
• Commercial fit-outs where in-wall termination points are required
• Renovation projects that replace surface-mounted solutions with concealed fittings

Key specifications

• Flush-mounted recess type for in-wall installation
• Material: durable insulating polymer for electrical safety
• Standardized form factor compatible with common modular devices
• Cable entry points designed for easy routing and strain relief
• Suitable for mains and low-voltage wiring in indoor environments

How to use

Cut an opening in the wall to match the junction box depth and dimensions, insert the box so that its front flange sits flush with the finished surface, and secure it according to the mounting provisions (clips, screws or mounting tabs as applicable). Route incoming and outgoing cables through the designated entry points, make the required electrical connections following local wiring regulations and insulating practices, then mount the switch or socket module to the box and attach the cover plate. Ensure all connections are made with power isolated and that wire terminations are protected and fixed before restoring power.

Usage recommendations

Install only in dry indoor locations and use with compatible modular devices; verify local electrical codes and, if unsure, engage a qualified electrician to ensure correct mounting depth, secure cable fixation and compliant wiring.
