Which NEMA Rated Enclosure Is Best for Your
Application? Find Out In Beginner Guide
The Talladega supplier of electrical parts, Electrical
Power and Control, has a new guide explaining different
NEMA ratings and how to select the right enclosure for
your needs.
The NEMA ratings, established by
the National Electrical
Manufacturers Association,
consist of 14 categories with
specific protective features for
different environments
The basics of NEMA ratings is to understand that 3, 4, 6 etc., are made for outdoor use,
whereas 1, 2, 5, and up are made for indoor applications.
For outdoor enclosures, NEMA 3 is the basic rating
that can withstand rain, snow, and dust and is
sufficient for most industrial applications.
NEMA 4 ratings provide robust outdoor protection, but
the most advanced protection is the NEMA 6P, made for
underwater installations and areas with high flooding
risks.
The team at Electrical Power and Control helps you pick out the right enclosure for your application.
