Housing - on-wall-ceiling - Do you want to bring together several electrical cables for your electrical installations? In this catalog you will find housings that have been developed for mounting on a wall or ceiling. These are mainly referred to as junction boxes, junction boxes, connection boxes, distributor boxes or, according to German standards, as installation boxes. Find out here what the differences are between the individual installation boxes and which criteria are relevant when purchasing.With eibabo®, you can choose exactly the installation boxes that are best suited to your project from a comprehensive range. These are also referred to as passive components of an electrical installation and, in contrast to switch boxes, are mostly installed on plaster. Due to their design, these are designed for stationary installation and for accommodating cables, lines, clamps and other connections. We carry housings with strain relief lugs for pendant lights and external mounting lugs. You will also receive housings with high resistance to the effects of weather. These are impact-resistant, protect against rainwater and are also resistant to changing temperatures and seawater. Housings with these special properties are approved for installation on ships and for offshore applications.Notice:Always leave electrical installations to an experienced electrician. When working on an installation box, safety always comes first. Disconnect the relevant circuit from the power supply.A high percentage of the junction boxes at eibabo® are kept in classic white and grey. However, you can also find cases in colors like black, green, brown, and red for a more customized use.What do I need installation boxes for?Junction boxes are an essential part of the electrical wiring systems for houses and other buildings. These are made of metal or plastic and protect cable connections, connections and distributions in an electrical installation. For example, if you want to distribute the individual supply line for a room to several lines, the wiring is done in the installation box.How are installation boxes installed?The assembly of the installation boxes is very simple. As a rule, the housings have markings or screw channels on the inside, which you should use to attach them to stable and secure surfaces. Some variants offer external attachment tabs. Make sure that the housing corresponds to the conditions at the place of use, is freely accessible for maintenance work and cannot be manipulated by unauthorized persons. TIP:You can close and seal some installation boxes tightly. External influences can be quickly identified through the viewing window in the cover. TIP:Based on experience, we recommend that you make the entries for each cable before installing the socket and insert cables as a test. In tight installation environments, it can be difficult to cut out post-inserts or expand existing diameters.How do installation boxes differ?Installation boxes differ mainly in size, material and properties for specific locations. Installation boxes can be made of either metal or plastic. The choice between plastic and metal depends on which cable material is used and which mechanical loads an installation box should be able to withstand. Metal-sheathed cable and metal conduit typically require a metal junction box for grounding. Even if the installation box is exposed to heavy knocks or similar influences in everyday life, a stable metal model is recommended. Plastic housings are the standard choice for non-metallic cables.Special featuresSome models are fire resistant or shielded for use in severe conditions. Installation under the ground, under water or in potentially explosive areas is also possible in some cases.Check the local regulations for your electrical installation. This will tell you if you need to use wall outlets with a specific IP rating. In most cases, your electrician can tell you what IP rating is required.Correct dimensioning of the installation boxThe dimensioning of an installation box is crucial to ensure the function of the internal connections. If you have enough space available, we always recommend using a slightly larger can. Cables and wires are rigid and difficult to bend into shape. Clamps require space. If you choose the socket too small, the space for working on the connections will also be very small and cramped. When determining the size, consider:the number of lines to be installedthe length of the lines for comfortable workthe cross-section of the lines and the associated flexibilitythe number of clamps to be installedany other components in the can TIP:Do not leave any exposed wires in the installation box. Even if you do not need a wire, please always provide it with a clamp. Always allow for some reserve for changes in the future. On average, installation boxes for commercial use are larger than housings for private households, as these often have to accommodate more connections.Image: Spelsberg Abox 250-L junction boxHow do I find the right installation box?There is a large selection of installation boxes. This ranges from universal installation boxes to special products. You will find the right product if you ask yourself the following questions:Do I need an installation box for commercial or private use?What are the site conditions like? (surface, temperature, humidity, electromagnetism, risk of impact)How much space do I have for installation?What is installed in the can and how much?What space should I reserve as a reserve?Do I want to secure the installation box? (vandalism, unauthorized access, sealing) The answers result in a catalog of properties. You can easily set these as a filter here in the shop.

Core cable - It is not always necessary or desirable to lay cables and lines with multiple cores. For these applications, the eibabo® technology store offers you individual cores with different diameters and insulation. Read here what you should pay attention to when using and buying.Classic cables and lines usually consist of several individual and separately insulated wires. The conductive material of these wires consists mainly of copper, in certain cases also of other metals. The nature of the conductor itself can also vary. A solid wire is possible, but also a bundle with a multi-core core structure, so-called stranded wire. If you want your installation to be more mobile, reach for the stranded wire. Use solid wire for permanent installations. You can get individual wires, but also ready-made cables and wires from us in our online shop at reasonable prices.What are cables, wires and cores?Electrical cables, wires and individual wires all serve the purpose of transmitting electrical energy or data signals over a certain distance.More cables in the shopSpecial cables and cables for data transmission and signal transmission can have a different structure than classic power cables. With our search you will find cables and wires for almost all electrical engineering requirements.core linesThe core cables offered in this catalog are individual solid metal cores or strands, which are surrounded by insulation. Core lines for the transmission of electrical energy usually consist of two parts, a metal core and a surrounding insulating layer. The metal core made of copper or aluminum serves as a conductor for the direct transmission of the electric current. The core of the wire can be monolithic (solid wire) or twisted from several fine wires. Copper conductors are mainly used for wires with small and medium cross-sections. The insulation of the wires serves to protect them from contact.cables and wiresIn contrast, cables and wires consist of several cores, which are combined under a common insulating layer. The term cable is used in German when it is a fixed installation outside of buildings. Cables are used inside buildings. The type of cable or line is selected according to the type of installation, the planned load and the environment.What is the significance of the colors of the core cables?First of all: We always recommend that you have work on electrical equipment carried out by an experienced installer.When you see an electrical installation or look at a loose end of a cable, you are confronted with wire cables of different colors. In Germany these are typically black, brown, blue, gray and green-yellow. If you understand the color coding for electrical cables, you will be able to use the individual cores correctly. This is particularly important because other people later rely on the correct assignment of the colors when checking or making changes and derive the function of individual wires from this. NoticeThe color codes are slightly different internationally. When choosing the color, please refer to the applicable standards in your country. Non-metallic electrical cables consist of the outer plastic sheath and the inner, color-coded cores. Markings are usually applied to the sheathing, which provide information about the number of wire lines and their diameter. The color of the wire determines its purpose. The following rules apply in Germany and the EU: The basic colors are brown, blue and green-yellow. There are also the extended basic colors black and grey. Alternative colors are white, orange, red and purple.The brown wire is phase 1 (L1) and is always used for the so-called 'hot wire'. The term 'hot' is used as a synonym for wire lines that transport the electrical current from the power source to the device (lamp, socket or similar).The blue wire is the neutral wire (N) and must not be switched independently. Please don't let the term 'neutral' fool you. It is easy to believe that this is a non-electrified line. Even neutral lines can potentially carry electricity. While the brown wire carries power from the power source to the device, the neutral wire carries power back to the source. Therefore, both 'hot' and neutral lines have the potential to cause electrical surge injuries.All electrical devices must be grounded. In the event of a fault, grounding provides a safe path for current to flow back to ground or earth. The green-yellow wire is intended for this. This is called the protective earth conductor (PE) and is connected to electrical devices such as switches, sockets and fittings as well as metal frames or metal housings.Already knew?The green-yellow color combination for the protective conductor was chosen so that people with color blindness can distinguish this line from the other lines.The extended basic colors black and gray are used when it is a three-phase AC installation. Colloquially, one also speaks of power current, three-phase current or site current. The term 'strong current' is also often used. However, this is not correct. The term 'high current' is only used in connection with systems with a nominal voltage of 1 kV or more. The black wire represents phase 2 (L2), the gray wire represents phase 3 (L3).You can choose the alternative colors white, orange, red and violet as a supplement for certain installations, for example as a corresponding cable for alternating circuits or cross circuits.Which cross-section do I have to pay attention to with core cables?The required cross-section of an electrical cable depends on numerous conditions. These include the type of current (direct current, alternating current), the level of the operating voltage, the amperage, the length of the line, the type of installation, the voltage drop and the phase angle. These parameters result in a calculation formula that can be used to determine a cable cross-section. Due to the many variables, we cannot make any general recommendations for the use of certain cross-sections at this point for safety reasons.Picture: Various manufacturers H07V-U 1.5 core cable solidWhat are the differences between solid conductors and stranded conductors?Electrical wires are the basis of every electrical circuit. In addition to the color of the insulation and the cross-section of the conductor material, we also distinguish between solid conductors and multi-core core structures. Choose cables, wires and cores with solid conductors for permanent installations, for example in walls, floors, ceilings or in the ground. In these environments, the solid conductors have a number of advantages over flexible strands. These are:Cheaper to Manufacture ? Given the amount of wiring and wiring in a building, this has a huge impact on investment costs.Rigid and mechanically more stable - This makes it easier to lay through channels and openings.Easy and convenient to connect - The connection in terminals can also be made quickly and safely without ferrules. Stranded conductors are used in flexible installations and offer the following advantages over solid conductors:Plenty of surface area for the current to flow ? With the same load, the diameter of a stranded conductor can be smaller.Greater Surface Area for Less Resistance - Power dissipation is less than a solid conductor of the same size.Lots of flexibility and smaller bending radii ? stranded conductors have a longer service life than solid conductors when it comes to movement, twisting and stretching.

Flexible electric cable - Did you know that there are different types of wiring in your house? Among other things, we distinguish electrical cables according to whether they have rigid or flexible core cables. Read here when which types are used and what you should consider when selecting flexible cables.How are flexible lines constructed?The conductive core of a flexible cable does not consist of a solid (monolithic) wire, but of many little wires twisted together. These little wires form an insulated core, the so-called stranded wire. Depending on the purpose of the product, several of these cores can be bundled together in a further sheath to form a cable. The most important selection criteria for such a product are:the number of insulated cores within the sheathing of a cable (this can be several dozen)the color and positioning of the cores within the sheathing of a cable (see twisted pair cable)the cross-section of the respective coresthe type and structure of the insulation and sheathing The number and cross-section of the cores determine the total power of the current that can be safely conducted. This is one of the most important features of a cable and is specified by the manufacturer at regular intervals on the outer insulation. We recommend using quality products from well-known manufacturers. Tolerances can occur with cheap no-name items, which usually have an adverse effect on the cross-section and thus impair the performance of the line. There are also differences in the shape of the wires or lines. Most often we encounter the round shape, but in some variants the outer shape can also be flat, for example. This affects the outer diameter and the possible uses.The type and structure of the insulation and sheathingInsulation appropriate for the application is the primary safety feature of an electrical cable. Their main task is:Protect people from contact with a live coreto protect the cable from mechanical damageto ensure a correct current flow without interference from the outsideto shield the environment from the influences of the line In a line, each core is separately insulated. This prevents contact between the electrical conductors in the cores and offers protection against mechanical damage. Another outer sheath holds all the components of the cable together and also protects the inner insulation from drying out, high humidity and other influences. Depending on the location and purpose of a line, different materials are used for the insulation. These should correspond to the expected mechanical, chemical and thermal influences. The UV radiation of the sun must also be taken into account. The following materials are therefore used most frequently in the area of classic household electrics:PVC ? inexpensive, flexible, low-wear, non-flammable and resistant to various chemical compounds, not suitable for high and very low temperaturesRubber - particularly flexible, suitable for medium to difficult operating conditions, resistant to low temperaturesPE - resistant to chemical compounds, pressure and low temperaturesSilicone ? particularly reliable at high temperatures up to around 200 °C, low mechanical strengthPUR ? high oil resistance and abrasion resistant immission and emissionCurrent-carrying cables generate magnetic fields. The immission protection protects the data flowing through the wire from external electromagnetic influences. The emission protection prevents the emission of electromagnetic interference signals through the line.The outer casing can consist of additional elements:Shielding made of metal foil or metal mesh as a barrier against immission and emission. These mainly include fault currents, radio waves, EM fields or radiation, which affect the transmission of signals in data lines.Armor as maximum line protection against mechanical damage.Cover made of (impregnated) cotton or silk to protect against mechanical damage, rot or for decorative purposes. Image: Various flexible linesWhat is the difference between flexible lines and rigid lines?Cables with rigid conductors are used for fixed installation in domestic installations. Cables with flexible conductors are used where you want to connect mobile consumers. Mobile consumers are, for example, floor lamps, coffee machines, radios or hair dryers. But why is that?Advantages and disadvantages of flexible, multi-core cables:high elasticity and flexibilitysmall power losseshigh quality circuitreliabilitypoor performance on HF networkshigh price In particular, the higher price and the more complex production of connections (e.g. due to the necessary cable lugs) stand in the way of the use of flexible cables for all areas of electrical installation. In comparison, solid conductors have the following advantages and disadvantages in these points:inexpensiveUse in HF networkseasier installationeasy connectionhigh rigidity, not very flexible, difficult handling You save money with solid conductors in fixed installation. However, the handling of rigid cables is too cumbersome for daily mobile use on electrical devices, extensions or distributors.Pliability of flexible linesThe number of cores and the diameter of the wires in a core determine the flexibility of the core of a cable. The standard DIN EN 60228 (VDE 0295) describes four classes of conductors: solid (i.e. single-core solid conductors), stranded, finely stranded and extra finely stranded. The thinner the wires, the easier it is to bend the line. TIPSingle-wire and multi-wire cables have different levels of flexibility. During operation, these should not be bent too much so that the core is not damaged. The rule of thumb for solid conductors is: The minimum bending radius should not be less than four to five times the diameter of the cable including the sheath. A line with an outer diameter of 11 mm should therefore not be bent below a radius of about 50 mm. Flexible cables are more flexible than solid cables. Their bending radius should not be less than three times the cable diameter.What is a stranded twisted pair?Information systems have become an integral part of life today. Telecommunications, the global Internet and television are part of our everyday lives. One of the most important components of such networks is the twisted pair line. This is a line consisting of four or eight copper wires. The cores of the twisted pair cables are offered as solid or in the form of stranded wires. The special thing about it is that the wires are twisted together in pairs. A shield increases the protection of the line against electromagnetic interference. Twisted pair cables are primarily intended for the transmission of digital information in Ethernet networks. twisted pair lines. The area of application is not only private houses and apartment buildings, but also commercial offices and industrial companies as well as public facilities such as schools and hospitals.What is the significance of the core colors in flexible cables?If you look at a typical flexible power supply cable, you will see strands of different colors in it. In Germany these are typically black, brown, blue, gray and green-yellow. In order to be able to use the individual wires correctly, you should know the meaning of the color coding. This is important so that other people can rely on the correct assignment of the colors during repairs, checks or changes. Installers derive the function of individual wires from this. Instructions are printed on the sheathing, which provide information about the number of wires and their diameter. The following rules apply to the colors of the wires in Germany and the EU: The basic colors are brown, blue and green-yellow. There are also the extended basic colors black and grey. Alternative colors are white, orange, red and purple.NoticeDepending on the manufacturer, country and type of cable, there are major deviations in the colors of the core insulation. Please use the standard applicable in your country.The following applies to Germany and large parts of Europe: the brown wire is phase 'L1' and is always used as the current-carrying line to the device. The blue wire is the 'N' neutral and carries the power back to the source. The green-yellow wire is intended for grounding. This is called the protective conductor 'PE'. The extended basic colors black and gray are used when it is a three-phase AC installation. The black wire represents phase 'L2', the gray wire represents phase 'L3'. The alternative colors of white, orange, red and purple are intended to complement certain installations.Which cross-section do I have to pay attention to with flexible cables?Flexible cables with stranded copper for normal household use start with a standard cross-section of 0.5 mm². The dimensions 0.75 mm², 1.5 mm² and 2.5 mm² are widespread. The cross-section you need depends on numerous conditions. These include:the type of current (direct current, alternating current)the level of the operating voltagethe amperagethe length of the linethe type of transferthe voltage dropthe phase angle These parameters result in a formula that can be used to calculate a cable cross-section. Due to the many variables, for safety reasons we do not give any general recommendations for the use of certain cross-sections at this point.Simply browse through our large eibabo® range.
