Distribution boards

For a distribution board, specify the mounting method, equipment space required and package contents. In this category, the enclosure, cover and accessories may be separate products with their own purposes.

Installation and modular space are the first checks

The range includes surface-mounted and flush-mounted distribution boards, apartment versions and different modular configurations. Choose the placement method before comparing the door's decorative appearance. Consider external dimensions, row count and equipment positions separately. Identical external dimensions are insufficient to assume identical internal components.

List the planned devices and check the space for them in the specific enclosure. Do not confuse the number of rows, number of modules and number of devices actually included. A stated modular capacity describes space available, rather than electrical equipment automatically supplied. For each reference, establish what the item itself is and which parts are added separately.

The door and accessories change the comparison

The range includes different coloured and transparent versions, covers and blanking plates for distribution boards. A solid or transparent door is selected as a characteristic of the specific offer. A blanking plate for an empty modular space is not a complete enclosure and does not determine distribution board capacity. Separate these accessories from the main box when ordering.

Also clarify the components included for installation and assembly, where specified for the model. A picture of a distribution board with accessories does not replace the kit description. To compare the manufacturers represented, you can browse SCAME and АТРА, retaining the exact series and reference.

Consider enclosure protection independently

The first digit in the IP designation describes protection against solid objects and dust, while the second describes protection against water. Impact resistance is designated separately by IK. Neither a higher IP nor the selected colour establishes all the characteristics of the finished distribution board. Check the conditions for the specific enclosure and the requirements for added components without transferring data between versions.

For another purpose, continue to industrial distribution boards and boards with sockets. The general electrical distribution boards section brings enclosure types together. Organise the final choice by mounting, capacity, access, environmental conditions and included contents to compare complete offers, rather than just identical-looking doors.
