Fördelningsboxar

A fördelningsbox, often translated as a distribution box or junction box, is a type of enclosure used in electrical installations to house and protect electrical connections and splices. These boxes serve as a central point where multiple electrical wires can be joined together safely and organized. They are essential for maintaining a neat and accessible wiring system, making it easier for electricians to troubleshoot or modify the circuitry.

Fördelningsboxar come in various shapes and sizes, typically made from metal or plastic to offer protection against physical damage, moisture, and dust. The material choice often depends on the environment where the box will be installed; metal boxes are generally more robust and offer better fire resistance, while plastic boxes are lighter, easier to work with, and resistant to corrosion.

Inside a fördelningsbox, wires are connected using terminal blocks, wire nuts, or other suitable connectors. This organized arrangement prevents loose wires, reduces the risk of short circuits, and ensures that all connections are secure. The box itself is usually mounted on a wall, ceiling, or other surface, and its cover can be easily removed to access the internal wiring. They are a fundamental component in both residential and industrial electrical systems, contributing to safety and maintainability.
