1SKV301200S0001 ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-18 Protecta Power 18-Way Side Extension Box 2000 x 300 mm

Why Choose the ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-18 Side Extension Box?

The ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-18, manufacturer order code 1SKV301200S0001, is a purpose-designed side cableway extension box for ABB Protecta Power electrical distribution enclosures. Developed for compatible 18-way Protecta Power distribution boards, this enclosure accessory provides additional space alongside the main distribution assembly for routing, organising and managing electrical cables.

As part of the ABB Protecta Power enclosure and distribution system, the EPX-SIDECABLE-18 supports practical cable management in low-voltage electrical installations. Its dedicated side-extension configuration enables electrical contractors, switchboard manufacturers and panel builders to incorporate additional cableway space into compatible Protecta Power assemblies while maintaining a coordinated enclosure arrangement.

With manufacturer-specified dimensions of 2000 mm high × 300 mm wide, the ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-18 is designed to fit the corresponding 18-way Protecta Power distribution enclosure. This standard side extension box does not include dedicated meter knock-outs, making it suitable for installations requiring additional cable routing space rather than an integrated metering compartment.

Additional Cableway Space for Low-Voltage Power Distribution

Low-voltage electrical distribution boards frequently require additional space for routing incoming and outgoing conductors, particularly in installations incorporating multiple outgoing circuits and substantial cable quantities. The ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-18 provides a dedicated side cableway extension for compatible 18-way Protecta Power boards, helping installers organise electrical cables alongside the main distribution equipment.

The ABB Protecta Power system includes coordinated enclosures, moulded case circuit breaker arrangements and installation accessories for constructing low-voltage power distribution assemblies. Side cableway extension boxes are part of this modular approach, allowing additional cable management space to be incorporated into an installation where required.

The EPX-SIDECABLE-18 measures 2000 mm high × 300 mm wide and is designed to correspond with the designated 18-way enclosure configuration. Unlike the separately available EPX-SIDECABLE-18M metering variant, the standard EPX-SIDECABLE-18 does not provide dedicated meter knock-outs. Installers should verify enclosure compatibility, cable entry arrangements, required accessories and the protection characteristics of the completed electrical assembly before installation.

Typical Applications

• ABB Protecta Power 18-way electrical distribution boards.
• Low-voltage switchboard cable management installations.
• Commercial building electrical distribution systems.
• Industrial electrical distribution enclosures.
• Outgoing MCCB cable routing arrangements.
• Electrical panel building and switchboard assembly projects.
• Distribution installations requiring additional side cableway space.
• Warehouses, logistics centres and manufacturing facilities.
• Building services and electrical plant room installations.
• Compatible Protecta Power enclosure expansion and refurbishment projects.
