Why Choose the ABB 05051 100 × 40 mm Slotted Wiring Trunking?
The ABB 05051 is a 100 mm wide × 40 mm high PVC wiring duct with 8/12 mm vertical slots, designed for organised routing and concealment of conductors inside electrical control panels, switchboards and automation enclosures. Supplied in 2 m lengths, it provides a practical cable-management solution for panel builders and electrical system integrators.
The combination of a generous 100 × 40 mm duct profile and vertical 8/12 mm slots allows multiple conductors to be routed through the trunking while individual wires can be conveniently taken out at the required position. ABB specifies a product weight of approximately 0.55 kg/m, with a grey thermoplastic construction suitable for professional panel wiring applications.
ABB's slotted wiring ducts are designed to simplify conductor organisation within densely populated electrical assemblies. The 05051 is supplied with a removable cover and uses a two-point contact design that helps the cover locate and engage correctly with reduced fitting force, supporting efficient installation and subsequent access to internal wiring.

Professional Cable Management for Control Panels and Switchboards
Slotted wiring duct is widely used to maintain clear, organised conductor routes inside electrical assemblies. The 8/12 mm vertical slot pattern of the ABB 05051 allows individual conductors and wire groups to leave the trunking close to their termination points, helping reduce loose wiring around contactors, relays, terminals, circuit protection devices and other panel-mounted equipment.
With its 100 mm width and 40 mm height, the 05051 is particularly useful where a relatively wide wiring route is required without the additional depth of taller trunking. The removable cover conceals and protects the routed conductors while retaining convenient access for installation, inspection, modification and maintenance.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels.
- Low-voltage distribution switchboards.
- PLC and automation control cabinets.
- Machine control enclosures.
- Motor control and process-control panels.
- Routing wiring between DIN-rail-mounted equipment and terminal blocks.
- Panel-building and electrical system integration projects.
