What is an electrical junction box?

Electrical installation boxes (also known as installation or electrical boxes) are accessories that protect electrical connections of electrical installation wires against moisture, dust and unauthorized access. They have the form of a container made of plastic. They can also be used to mount elements such as electrical sockets, switches or telecommunications sockets. Due to the method of installation, there are surface-mounted boxes and flush-mounted boxes.

Surface-mounted electrical box - application

The surface-mounted box is a variant mounted to the wall. Made of durable plastic, it is highly resistant to mechanical damage and dirt. Its design provides easy access to electrical connections for technical or service work. Surface-mounted boxes, although they have a minimalist design and compact dimensions, are visible elements of the arrangement, which is why they are mainly installed in places where the highest aesthetics are not a priority (industrial plants, workshops, technical buildings, basements, garages, etc.).

Which surface-mounted electrical box should I choose?

When choosing a surface-mounted electrical box, you should consider its intended use, the place of installation, the type of installed cables and the operating conditions. Hermetic surface-mounted boxes are a suitable solution for use in places exposed to moisture or dust. They have an increased tightness class (IP). For example, IP67 means maximum protection against dust, sand and other solids and a high level of protection against water ingress. If a given application requires waterproofness, IP67 is the absolute minimum. If long-term immersion is planned, it is necessary to purchase a product with IP68 protection class.

Single, double and multiple installation boxes

There are single and multiple electrical boxes available on the market. The latter allow for the installation of two or more electrical sockets or other electrical devices. This eliminates the need to install several separate boxes, so the resulting solution is more stable and aesthetically pleasing. In addition, a multiple box significantly speeds up installation work, because the electrician does not have to worry about the distances between compartments or the depth of individual holes.
