Debox V retains all the same time-saving features & ease-of-installation as Debox SL2 – but is supplied without connectors, for electricians who prefer to use their own.

Specialist manufacturer & supplier of electrical, electronic & electromechanical components, Hylec-APL has introduced Debox V, a new extra-value variant, to its popular and innovative Debox cable junction box series. Hylec’s Debox junction box range is well known among electrical installers for being supplied complete-for-use, making connections quicker and easier, saving them time and money. However, Hylec research has shown that many electricians routinely carry boxes of standard connectors, which they often prefer to use.

The new Debox V offers the same time-saving features and ease-of-installation as other Debox junction boxes – but is supplied without connectors, providing an extra-value option for electricians who carry and prefer to use their own connectors. Debox V also provides a secure way to house ready-terminated connectors within a quick-to-install enclosure, using the electrician’s preferred lever connectors. Debox advantages include:

  • Screwless connections – no fiddly screws to lose in poorly lit installation situations
  • 100% tool-free assembly, including unique built-in tool-less cable restraints
  • Snap-close lid with locking clip (and spare)
  • Fold-out fixing lugs
  • Maintenance-free operation
  • Passes pull test EN 60670-22 and cable retention test EN 60670-1-7.41
  • Conforms to the EN 60598-1 (13.2.2) glow wire test
  • Flame retardant housing to UL 94 V-0

Debox V measures a compact 107mm (L) x 47mm (W) x 35mm (H) and is manufactured from white polypropylene, with a maximum current rating of 32A and a temperature rating from -20°C to +85°C. The design is suitable for joining either flat or round profile cable, with a minimum conductor size of 0.25mm and a maximum of 4mm.

In the year that Hylec celebrates 10 years since the launch of its innovative Debox cable junction box series, Debox V joins the other highly successful and popular Debox in-line junction box products: the original all-in-one Debox S; Debox SL, the first-ever completely tool-free in-line electrical junction box; Debox SL2, the smallest junction box available with 5x 3-pole connectors; Debox SM40, the first 4-pole in-line junction box that fits through a 40mm aperture, making it ideal for use in LED lighting applications; and Debox 11, the surface-mounted junction box for external weatherproof applications. With each model addressing different application use cases, the versatile Debox in-line junction box family’s registered design features offer faster, more efficient and therefore cheaper installation through its simple and virtually tool-free use. Millions of units of Debox have been sold during the decade since its launch, helping electrical installers worldwide save time and money without compromising quality.
