Why Choose the ABB EPX - SIDE M 8W Side Metering Chamber?
The ABB EPX - SIDE M 8W is a purpose-designed side metering chamber for 6-way and 8-way electrical distribution assemblies within the ABB Protecta Power enclosure system. As part of the ABB Protecta Power Enclosures range, this accessory provides a dedicated enclosure section for accommodating compatible electrical metering equipment alongside the main power distribution assembly.
Designed for electrical contractors, switchgear manufacturers and panel builders, the EPX - SIDE M 8W supports the integration of electrical metering arrangements into ABB Protecta Power installations. Its side chamber configuration provides a separate enclosure space for suitable metering components, helping installers organise the distribution and monitoring equipment within a coordinated low-voltage electrical assembly.
With a 6/8-way compatibility designation, the EPX - SIDE M 8W is intended for compatible ABB Protecta Power distribution configurations requiring an additional side metering enclosure. Identified by ABB order code 1SKV322140S0001, this genuine ABB accessory is suitable for commercial and industrial electrical distribution projects where dedicated metering accommodation is required.

Reliable Metering Integration for Electrical Distribution Systems
Modern electrical distribution installations often require dedicated accommodation for metering and monitoring equipment. Electrical meters can be used to measure energy consumption, monitor electrical loads and support the management of power distribution across commercial buildings and industrial facilities. Providing suitable enclosure space for these devices is an important consideration when designing a complete distribution assembly.
The ABB EPX - SIDE M 8W provides a dedicated side metering chamber for compatible 6-way and 8-way ABB Protecta Power configurations. Its side enclosure arrangement allows suitable metering equipment to be incorporated alongside the main distribution system, helping electrical designers and panel builders create an organised installation.
ABB Protecta Power distribution systems are designed around modular enclosure components and flexible circuit configurations. The EPX - SIDE M 8W forms part of this enclosure accessory range, allowing a designated metering chamber to be included where the selected panelboard arrangement requires additional space for electrical measurement equipment.
The chamber provides physical accommodation for metering components but does not independently measure electricity consumption or provide circuit protection. Energy meters, current transformers, wiring accessories and other associated equipment must be selected separately where required. The completed installation should be designed in accordance with the applicable electrical standards, enclosure compatibility requirements and ABB installation instructions.
