The body is iron alloy, 75.5 × 64 mm and 50 mm deep. Boxes join side by side into a row of up to 5 gangs for German-standard multi-gang frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e55 × 55 mm German-standard (DIN) wiring devices — e.g. Gira, Jung, Berker, ABB, ekinex, Eelectron — tested by KNX Mall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGerman-standard devices in a UAE project\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost back boxes sold in the UAE are square boxes for British-standard (BS) switches and sockets. A project with Gira, Jung, Berker, ABB, ekinex or Eelectron devices of the 55 × 55 mm German standard needs a German-format box: the device is fixed with two screws at 60 mm centres, and multi-gang frames sit on boxes joined at 71 mm centres. This metal back box gives both.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy not a 3 × 3 box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEuropean wiring devices of the 55 × 55 mm German standard set into a square 3 × 3 box can sink into the box. This box is made for German-standard devices: the device is fixed with two screws at 60 mm centres and sits flat on the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlush-mount points in villas, apartments, offices and hotel rooms where the design specifies Gira, Jung, Berker, ABB, ekinex or Eelectron devices: light switches, push-buttons and KNX push-buttons of these ranges, and socket outlets in the 55 × 55 format, both Schuko and British-standard (UK). Join 2 to 5 boxes in a row for a German-standard multi-gang frame, for example switches and a socket outlet by the bed or at the entrance. One box type for every 55 × 55 point keeps the BOQ and the site simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNot a 3 × 3 GI box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the UAE, “GI box” usually means the square 3 × 3 back box for British-standard accessories. This box is a different format: 75.5 × 64 mm, made for 55 × 55 mm devices. It takes British-standard (UK) socket outlets too, when they are 55 × 55 inserts of a German-standard range. If your drawings or BOQ call for Jung, Gira, Berker or ekinex devices, this is the back box to order with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKNX Mall\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eArticle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKM-MBB-1G-50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-gang metal back box, flush mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIron alloy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75.5 × 64 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDepth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOperating temperature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e−5 °C to +40 °C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eFits\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55 × 55 mm German-standard (DIN) wiring devices — e.g. Gira, Jung, Berker, ABB, ekinex, Eelectron — tested by KNX Mall\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDevice fixing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 screws at 60 mm centres\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eJoining\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSide by side, up to 5 in a row, 71 mm centres\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eEarthing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEarthing screw point\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs this a GI box?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a metal back box, but not the square 3 × 3 box often called a GI box in the UAE.
