VIKO 1x8 Modular Surface-Mounted Distribution Board IP40 with Push Lock

The VIKO 1x8 modular surface-mounted distribution board is a robust and reliable solution for organizing electrical components in residential and commercial environments. Designed for surface installation, this enclosure provides a clean and professional housing for up to eight modular devices. The unit is built with an IP40 protection rating, which offers effective protection against solid objects, ensuring the safety and longevity of your electrical installation.

Advantages

This distribution board stands out due to its user-friendly design and high-quality construction. The inclusion of a convenient push-type lock mechanism allows for quick and secure access to the interior, eliminating the need for keys while maintaining a tidy appearance. Its compact form factor makes it an excellent choice for installations where space is limited, yet it remains spacious enough to accommodate standard modular equipment easily. The durable materials used in its manufacturing ensure that the unit remains stable and functional over long periods of operation.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical distribution systems
• Small commercial office setups
• Control and protection of modular circuit breakers
• Surface-mounted electrical installations in dry indoor areas

This distribution board is not intended for outdoor use or environments exposed to moisture, water splashes, or high levels of dust, as the IP40 rating does not provide protection against liquid ingress. It is also not suitable for industrial applications requiring high-impact resistance or specialized fire-rated enclosures.

Key specifications

• Capacity: 8 modules
• Mounting type: Surface-mounted
• Protection rating: IP40
• Locking mechanism: Push-type lock
• Application: Indoor electrical distribution

To install the distribution board, first ensure the power supply is disconnected. Secure the base of the enclosure to a flat, stable wall surface using appropriate mounting hardware. Once the base is fixed, install your modular components onto the integrated DIN rail. Connect the wiring according to local electrical standards and safety regulations. Finally, snap the front cover into place and test the push-lock mechanism to ensure it closes securely.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the number of modules required for your project does not exceed the 8-module capacity.
• Ensure the installation location is dry and protected from water.
• Check that the wall surface is suitable for surface-mounted equipment.

For optimal performance and safety, ensure that all electrical connections are tightened correctly and that the distribution board is installed by a qualified professional in accordance with current electrical codes.
