Compact carbon-steel enclosure

The HOFFMAN ASE8X8X6 is a wall-mount electrical enclosure built from 12/14/16 gauge carbon steel with a powder-coated gray finish. It provides a NEMA Type 1 and IP30 rated environment for indoor wiring junctions and terminal blocks. The screw-on solid cover uses captive screws for secure closure during maintenance.

Indoor junctions only

This enclosure suits electricians and panel builders who need a listed, screw-fastened box for dry indoor locations. It is not intended for outdoor exposure, wet locations or applications requiring a hinged door or viewing window. Buyers needing higher ingress protection or a transparent cover should consider a different series.

NEMA Type 1 and IP30 rating

The single specification that decides fit is the NEMA Type 1 and IP30 rating, which limits use to indoor, non-hazardous areas without water or dust ingress. The enclosure carries cUL listing per CSA C22.2 No 40 and UL 50/50E standards with file number E27525. This rating determines whether the box meets the installation code for your site.
