Surface-mounted distribution box SCHNEIDERE EZ9EUC108 1x8 compartments IP40 IK07 white with transparent door

Surface-mounted distribution box SCHNEIDERE EZ9EUC108 is designed to accommodate a single row of 8 modular devices on a DIN rail. The enclosure provides IP40 protection against solid objects and basic ingress, and IK07 impact resistance for mechanical protection. Finished in white with a transparent door, the box allows visual inspection of status indicators without opening the cover and is suitable for surface installation in residential and light commercial environments to house circuit breakers, switches and other DIN-rail mounted devices.

Advantages

This surface-mounted distribution box offers a compact footprint for installations where a single row of eight modules is required. The IP40 rating ensures protection from contact with tools and large dust particles, while the IK07 rating reduces the risk of damage from impacts. The transparent door enables quick visual checks of installed devices and indicators without removing the cover, and the white finish provides a neutral appearance that integrates with typical interior settings. The enclosure is intended for straightforward surface mounting, providing accessible placement of protective and switching equipment.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical installations for housing circuit breakers and residual current devices
• Small commercial or office premises requiring a compact distribution point
• Retrofit projects where surface mounting is preferred over recessed installation
• Panels hosting a single row of DIN-rail mounted modular components (up to 8 modules)

Key specifications

• Mounting type: surface-mounted enclosure
• Capacity: single row, 8 modular positions (DIN-rail compatible)
• Protection rating: IP40 (protection against solid objects ≥1 mm)
• Impact resistance: IK07
• Cover: transparent door for visual inspection
• Color: white exterior finish

How to use

Mount the enclosure on a suitable flat surface using appropriate fixings for the substrate. Install a compatible DIN rail inside the box if not preinstalled, then clip modular devices into the available eight positions according to electrical design. Route incoming and outgoing cables through designated entry points or knockouts, ensuring cable clamps or glands are used where required to maintain cable retention. After wiring and testing, close the transparent door to allow visual monitoring while protecting the devices from accidental contact.

Usage recommendations

For safe and code-compliant installation, use breakers, switches and accessories that match the enclosure's single-row 8-module capacity and follow local electrical codes. Keep the enclosure accessible for maintenance, avoid installing in locations exposed to direct water jets or heavy dust since the IP40 rating does not provide protection against moisture or fine dust, and verify that impact-prone areas are avoided despite IK07 resistance.
