Mounting box VILMA GKD40S for plasterboard halogen-free polypropylene yellow IP30 concealed 7x7.5x4.2 cm
The mounting box VILMA GKD40S for plasterboard is a reliable accessory designed for secure electrical installations in hollow walls. Manufactured from high-quality halogen-free polypropylene, this yellow utility box ensures safe cable management and structural stability behind drywall surfaces. With its standard dimensions and concealed mounting design, it integrates smoothly into modern interior electrical systems, providing a dependable housing for switches, sockets, and other wiring devices.
This installation box offers excellent durability thanks to its sturdy polypropylene construction, which is free of harmful halogens to enhance safety during use. The bright yellow color aids visibility during the construction and wiring phases. Designed specifically for hollow wall and drywall applications, it ensures a firm and stable fit. The concealed mounting method maintains a clean and professional appearance for all finished wall surfaces while offering protection against standard indoor environmental factors.
This product is not designed for solid masonry, concrete, or brick walls without specific modifications, as it is engineered exclusively for hollow plasterboard installations. Additionally, with an IP30 protection rating, it is not suitable for outdoor use or in areas exposed to high moisture, water splashes, or dust accumulation.
Preparation involves measuring and cutting an appropriately sized opening in the plasterboard wall according to the dimensions of the box. Route the electrical cables through the knockout openings of the housing before inserting the unit into the wall cavity. Secure the box firmly into place using the designated mounting mechanisms for hollow walls, ensuring it sits flush with the surface. Once secured, wiring devices can be connected and installed directly into the box according to standard electrical safety practices.
Usage recommendations: Always disconnect the main power supply before performing any electrical installation work. Ensure that local electrical codes and safety standards are followed during the mounting and wiring process. Use appropriate tools for cutting plasterboard to achieve a precise and secure fit.
