Complete set of metering and distribution boxes

Complete metering and distribution boxes provide secure, flexible, and reliable housing for electrical meters and distribution systems in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

Overview

Metering and distribution boxes are essential components in electrical systems, designed to house meters, circuit breakers, and distribution panels while ensuring safety, accessibility, and compliance with standards. They are available in single-phase and three-phase configurations, with options for residential, commercial, and industrial installations.

Types and Features

Single and Group Meter Sockets: These are used for individual homes or multi-tenant buildings. Group metering combines multiple meter sockets in one enclosure, simplifying installation and maintenance.

Three-

Phase Meter Boxes: Designed for 380V systems, these boxes often feature transparent enclosures for easy inspection, multiple openings for circuit connections, and durable construction for long-term reliability. CT-Rated Enclosures: For high-current applications, CT-rated boxes allow for accurate measurement using current transformers, suitable for industrial or large commercial setups. Modular and Flexible Designs: Many boxes, such as those from Spelsberg, allow for customized configurations to fit spatial constraints and can include sealing plugs, insulating plugs, or ventilation plugs to reduce condensation.

Integrated Distribution Panels: Some systems, like the S20 range, combine metering panels with main individual circuit breakers, supporting both single-phase and three-phase setups.

Applications

Residential Buildings: Single or group meter boxes for apartments, condominiums, and houses. Commercial Properties: Three-phase boxes for offices, retail spaces, and industrial facilities. Industrial Installations: High-voltage and CT-rated enclosures for factories, substations, and mining operations.
