Electrical junction box ShiverPeaks BS08-01051 IP68 Black ABS Plastic

The ShiverPeaks BS08-01051 electrical junction box is a compact, durable enclosure designed for protecting electrical connections in indoor and outdoor installations. Molded from impact-resistant ABS plastic and finished in black, the box provides an IP68 level of protection against dust ingress and prolonged immersion in water. With external dimensions of 122 mm width, 83 mm depth and 40.5 mm height, this junction box accommodates small to medium cable connections while offering a secure, weather-resistant housing.

Advantages

The enclosure combines impact-resistant ABS construction with an IP68 sealing grade to deliver long-term resistance to dust and moisture. Its compact footprint is suitable for installations where space is limited while still allowing reliable cable termination. The black finish reduces visible dirt and blends with many installation environments. Designed and manufactured in Germany, the product follows consistent quality and dimensional standards for electrical enclosures.

Suitable for

• Protecting small cable splices and terminal blocks in outdoor lighting and sensor installations
• Enclosing connections for low-voltage control circuits and monitoring devices
• Use in damp or wet environments where IP68 ingress protection is required
• Indoor applications requiring a compact, tamper-resistant junction box

Key specifications

• Material: ABS plastic with impact-resistant properties
• Ingress protection rating: IP68 (dust-tight and protection against prolonged immersion)
• External dimensions (W x D x H): 122 mm x 83 mm x 40.5 mm
• Colour: Black
• Typical mounting: surface-mount installation

How to use

Mount the junction box on a suitable flat surface using screws or brackets that match the installation substrate. Open the enclosure and route cables through appropriately sealed cable entries or grommets to preserve the IP68 protection. Make cable terminations or wire splices inside the enclosure, ensuring all connections are secure and insulated. Reassemble the cover and tighten the fasteners evenly to achieve the specified sealing performance. Verify the enclosure remains sealed after installation and following any maintenance.

Recommendations

For reliable ingress protection, use compatible sealed cable glands or grommets sized to the conductor diameter, avoid over-tightening fasteners that may deform the housing, and perform periodic inspections after exposure to harsh environmental conditions. Consult local electrical regulations for correct cable sectioning and connection methods.
