Why Choose the ABB 4/8R8 Switchgear Cabinet?
The ABB 4/8R8 is a robust TriLine R floor-standing switchgear cabinet designed for professional indoor low-voltage distribution and switchgear assemblies. Supplied under ABB order code 2CPX045634R9999, it forms part of the ABB Striebel & John metalwork system and provides a large, deep enclosure platform for demanding commercial and industrial electrical installations.
The 4/8R8 is an empty sheet-steel cabinet with doors and rear wall, designed for integration with compatible ABB internal installation equipment. The enclosure is supplied without a bottom sheet-steel plate and incorporates pre-cut top flange openings for cable entry, supporting flexible configuration during switchboard construction.
With overall dimensions of 1913 × 1114 × 825 mm (H × W × D), the 4/8R8 provides four field widths, 12 rows and 576 space units. Its powder-coated RAL 7035 sheet-steel construction provides IP54 protection when correctly configured, together with Class I earthed protection and an IK10 impact-resistance rating.

Reliable Housing for Deep Low-Voltage Switchgear Assemblies
Floor-standing switchgear cabinets provide the structural framework required to house, organise and protect electrical switching, protection and power-distribution equipment. The ABB TriLine R system uses a modular enclosure concept that enables panel builders to combine compatible internal components and accessories into structured low-voltage assemblies.
The ABB 4/8R8 combines a substantial 825 mm depth with four field widths and 576 space units, making it particularly suitable for larger switchgear arrangements requiring generous installation depth. Compatible plinths, flanges, side walls, bottom plates and internal installation components can be selected separately to complete the cabinet for the required application.
Typical Applications
- Large low-voltage power distribution systems.
- Industrial switchgear assemblies.
- Main and sub-distribution switchboards.
- Commercial building electrical distribution.
- Electrical plant rooms and infrastructure installations.
- Panel building and switchboard manufacturing.
- ABB Striebel & John TriLine R distribution systems.
