Why Choose the ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-08 Side Extension Box?
The ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-08 Side Extension Box (1SKV301140S0001) is a dedicated enclosure accessory from the ABB Protecta Power Enclosures product group. Designed for compatible electrical distribution enclosure arrangements, this side extension box provides an additional enclosure section for applications where supplementary space is required alongside the main distribution assembly.
Electrical distribution installations often require carefully planned cable routing, cable entry and termination arrangements. The ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-08 offers a manufacturer-designated side extension solution that can support these requirements when incorporated into a compatible Protecta Power enclosure configuration. Its purpose is to complement the main enclosure rather than replace the electrical distribution equipment housed within it.
As part of the ABB Protecta Power Enclosures range, the EPX-SIDECABLE-08 is relevant to professional electrical panel builders, contractors and switchboard manufacturers working with modular low-voltage distribution systems. The exact dimensions, mounting arrangement, usable internal space and compatibility requirements should be confirmed against the applicable ABB technical documentation before installation.

Additional Enclosure Space for Professional Cable Management
Effective cable management is an important consideration in low-voltage electrical distribution installations. Cable entry positions, conductor routing, bending space and termination arrangements must be planned to suit the connected equipment and applicable installation requirements. The ABB EPX-SIDECABLE-08 Side Extension Box provides a dedicated enclosure extension option for compatible ABB Protecta Power assemblies where supplementary space alongside the main enclosure is required.
A side extension arrangement can help electrical panel builders separate cable accommodation requirements from the main equipment layout, where the approved enclosure design permits this configuration. This may be particularly relevant to distribution boards with multiple incoming or outgoing circuits, where conductor access and routing must be considered during the design stage.
The EPX-SIDECABLE-08 should be selected according to the exact Protecta Power enclosure arrangement, available installation space and applicable ABB mounting instructions. The model suffix 08 is retained as part of the manufacturer's identification and should not be interpreted as a confirmed physical dimension. The protection rating, mechanical integrity and suitability of the completed assembly depend on the correctly selected and installed enclosure components.
Typical Applications
- ABB Protecta Power electrical distribution enclosures.
- Compatible low-voltage distribution board assemblies.
- Side extension arrangements for electrical enclosures.
- Commercial building power distribution installations.
