{"product_id":"20a-4-terminal-junction-box-black-79mm","title":"20A 4 Terminal Junction Box - Black 79mm","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Knightsbridge 20A junction box houses four brass terminals inside a 79mm diameter black thermoset resin enclosure rated to IP20. The box is designed for permanent connections in lighting circuits, ring mains and socket spurs rated up to 20A on 230V mains, providing a fixed junction point where multiple cables need to be joined or branched within a circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe selective cable entry system allows knockouts to be removed only where needed, leaving unused entry points sealed to maintain the IP20 ingress protection rating. The 26mm projection from the ceiling or wall surface allows sufficient depth for cable terminations and gives clearance for the four brass terminals arranged around the central mounting point. The resin casing resists impact and heat better than standard plastic enclosures, giving longer service life in ceiling voids, under floors and behind plasterboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCertification to BS EN 60670 confirms the enclosure meets European safety standards for electrical accessory boxes, covering mechanical strength, fire resistance and terminal retention under load. The black finish allows the box to blend into dark ceiling voids or be surface-mounted in utility areas, plant rooms and storage spaces where aesthetic integration is not required. Knightsbridge backs the box with a 25-year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e79 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThermoset resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrimary Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V 50Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_2002393_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is selective cable entry?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe junction box has multiple pre-moulded knockout points around the perimeter.
