Why Choose the ABB 1STQ008360B0000 IP65 External Panel for System Pro E Power Switchboards?
The ABB 1STQ008360B0000 is a purpose-designed 2 mm thick IP65 external enclosure panel from the ABB System Pro E Power modular low-voltage switchboard range. Featuring a nominal height of 1800 mm and width of 600 mm, this external panel is intended for compatible electrical distribution enclosures requiring a robust enclosure covering arrangement with an IP65 protection designation.
Developed for professional electrical panel builders, switchgear manufacturers and industrial power distribution system integrators, the ABB 1STQ008360B0000 provides a dedicated enclosure component for System Pro E Power switchboard assemblies. Its 2 mm nominal thickness provides a defined panel specification, while the IP65 designation identifies its intended use in compatible enclosure configurations designed to provide dust-tight protection and resistance to water jets.
The 1STQ008360B0000 is specified as a 2 mm IP65 external panel measuring 1800 mm high × 600 mm wide. It is designed for integration with compatible ABB System Pro E Power enclosure structures and associated mounting and sealing components. The IP65 protection level of a completed switchboard depends on the correct combination and installation of all enclosure parts, including joints, seals, doors, cable entries and other openings.

Reliable IP65 Enclosure Protection and Switchboard Integration
The ABB 1STQ008360B0000 external panel is intended to form part of the enclosure boundary in compatible System Pro E Power electrical distribution switchboards. External panels are important elements of modular enclosure construction because they cover designated sections of the switchboard structure and contribute to the physical separation of internal electrical equipment from the surrounding environment.
The IP65 designation indicates an enclosure protection configuration intended to be dust-tight and protected against water jets in accordance with the IP classification system defined by IEC/EN 60529. The first numeral, 6, identifies dust-tight protection, while the second numeral, 5, identifies protection against water jets. IP65 does not imply suitability for immersion, high-pressure water cleaning or every outdoor environmental condition.
With a nominal thickness of 2 mm and dimensions of 1800 × 600 mm, this panel provides a defined external covering specification for the corresponding System Pro E Power enclosure arrangement. The thickness and dimensions are important when selecting compatible panel mounting components, enclosure frames and sealing accessories. The specified dimensions refer to the panel configuration and should not be assumed to represent the overall dimensions of the completed switchboard.
Achieving the intended IP65 protection level requires correct installation of the complete enclosure system. Panel joints, gaskets, fasteners, doors, cable glands, ventilation components and other openings must be selected and assembled in accordance with the applicable ABB instructions. The panel's IP65 designation does not independently guarantee that an assembled switchboard will achieve IP65 protection.
The 1STQ008360B0000 is a mechanical enclosure accessory rather than an electrical protection device. Circuit protection, thermal management, mechanical performance and the completed assembly's compliance depend on the full switchboard design and the equipment installed within it. Professional panel builders should follow the relevant ABB System Pro E Power documentation and applicable IEC/EN 61439 requirements.
