Dear Jonathan,

Thanks for your question! Yes, you can. It is vital for safe operation to keep equipment using different nominal voltages separate inside an enclosure. There are two key requirements in projects like this: the enclosure itself and the partition walls.

The first point you should consider is the size of the electrical equipment you want to protect and how much room is available to house it. This will help you establish the size of your enclosure as well as the required length and width of your dividers.

Next, you will need to identify the most suitable materials for your enclosure and its dividers. At this stage you can assess whether your divider walls require any additional capabilities like pre-embossing for cable bushings.

Understanding whether the enclosure will be located indoors or outdoors will help you to decide how much ingress protection you will require from both solid items like dust or larger foreign bodies and from liquids. For outdoor enclosures that need protection against harsh environmental conditions, you may benefit from our GEOS range of rugged, easy to install solutions.

Depending on your location, regional safety regulations may include a requirement for permanent, grounded physical barriers between sections. Enclosures that will house different nominal voltages and associated devices should ensure effective separation to avoid electromagnetic interference (EMI) which can lead to signal disruption and hardware damage.

All Spelsberg enclosures are extensively tested, including certification in accordance with IEC 62208 and IEC 61439.

Our wide range of enclosures includes a selection of plastic partition walls and suitable holders that are easy to mount and disassemble. This lets you divide an enclosure lengthwise or crosswise, making them an ideal solution for retrospective installations and modifications to existing systems as well as new projects.

You can use our online product finder to identify which partition panel is best suited to your intended application. For more complex projects, we can deliver custom solutions with fast lead times tailored to your individual requirements thanks to our full product moulding, manufacturing and customisation facilities.

Just remember that in the UK, under BS7671 Wiring Regulations, there is a requirement to identify the presence of different voltages and where they can be isolated. These are important safety procedures that Spelsberg can help you to achieve.

If you need guidance or support to find the right enclosure or partitions for a specific project, send me a message and we can discuss your requirements further.

Kind regards,

Chris
