285 X 201 X 120 W/PROOF BOX: Weatherproof Enclosure for Protecting Equipment
The 285 X 201 X 120 W/PROOF BOX is a protective enclosure designed to shelter electrical, electronic or networking components from the elements. Its weatherproof construction makes it a practical choice where equipment must stay protected from rain, moisture and dust, both indoors and in more exposed locations. Maximise the protection of your installation by housing sensitive parts in a dedicated enclosure rather than leaving them exposed.
Enclosures such as this one give a neat, contained solution for keeping components and wiring together. Instead of scattering connections across a wall or panel, you can gather them inside one box, which makes the installation easier to inspect, maintain and tidy.

Typical Uses
This box can be used in a variety of practical settings. Common applications include housing control or connection points for security equipment, sheltering network or communication components, protecting junction and wiring connections, and providing a protective housing for small electrical or electronic devices that must remain safe from weather exposure.
In workshops and maintenance environments, a weatherproof enclosure is also useful for storing small components or tools that should stay dry. Outdoor installers may use it to protect terminals and connections that cannot be placed inside a building.
Installation Considerations
Before fitting the enclosure, measure the space available and confirm that the 285 x 201 x 120 dimensions will fit your intended location, including room for cables and any equipment inside. Plan the mounting position so that the box is accessible for future servicing. Route cables through suitable entry points and keep connections organised to reduce strain on terminals.
Check that the components you plan to house are compatible with the internal space and with the environment they will be operating in. Where equipment generates heat, allow adequate space for airflow within the enclosure. Follow the guidance supplied with your equipment and any applicable local regulations for electrical installation.
