Electrical Junction Box ShiverPeaks BS08-01050 IP68 Black 122x70x40.5mm

The ShiverPeaks BS08-01050 electrical junction box is a compact, robust enclosure designed for protecting wiring connections in outdoor and industrial environments. Constructed from durable ABS plastic and featuring an IP68 ingress protection rating, the enclosure prevents water and dust penetration while providing a secure space for splices, terminals and small electronic modules. Its external dimensions of 122 × 70 × 40.5 mm offer practical internal room for cable entry and connection components while keeping the overall footprint small.

Advantages

The enclosure combines impact-resistant ABS construction with a certified IP68 seal to deliver long-term protection against moisture, dust and temporary immersion. Its compact rectangular form factor and black finish support discreet installation in visible locations. The box is lightweight yet stable, simplifying handling and mounting without compromising mechanical protection for internal wiring. The design allows for flexible cable routing and straightforward access for maintenance.

Suitable for

• Outdoor junctions and cable splices exposed to weather
• Industrial control wiring and small sensor or signaling connections
• Marine or wet-location installations requiring dust and water resistance
• Enclosures for small electronics or terminal blocks in compact spaces

Key specifications

• Material: ABS plastic for impact resistance and dimensional stability
• Ingress protection: IP68 rating for dust-tight enclosure and protection against continuous immersion
• External dimensions: 122 mm (width) × 70 mm (depth) × 40.5 mm (height)
• Colour: Black for low-visibility installations
• Suitable for housing cable connections, terminal blocks and small modules

How to use

Mount the junction box on a flat surface using appropriate fasteners and ensure the mounting locations do not compromise the sealing surfaces. Route cables through compatible cable glands or sealed entries and make all electrical connections inside the enclosure. Confirm that gasket surfaces are clean and fully engaged when closing the lid to maintain the IP68 protection. Verify sealing after installation by checking that all entry points and the lid are correctly tightened and that no visible gaps remain.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, use cable glands and sealing accessories rated for IP68 and select cables with outer jackets compatible with outdoor exposure. Avoid placing heavy mechanical loads on connected cables at the conduit entry points and schedule periodic inspections to confirm the integrity of seals and fastenings, especially after mechanical stress or prolonged immersion.
