British General IP55 Weatherproof Outdoor Enclosure 75 x 53 x 85mm (33991)

Hi Woldtop, We would not expect a standard single socket to fit inside this enclosure (junction box) as generally speaking they tend to be roughly 86mm square (so larger than the space available inside).

Hi Alluda, The ring on the rear of the box is not a sealing ring but rather a ring for sealant to be applied to so that fluid does not leak in through the rear opening (when it is made), it is actually more accurately two rings with a slight gap between the inner and outer ones so that silicon sealant (or similar) will get a good bond on the box. Yes, the intention of this entry is exactly for a direct cable connection out of the wall of the building it is fixed to.

Hi CJN0, That is somewhat of a subjective question, the enclosure is sturdy and rigid but the weight of the camera will be a factor, as will the method of attachment (screwing straight to the lid would be less secure than bolting through to a weight distributing plate for example).

Definitely drill this out. You probably could do it with a knife, but it's pretty thick. I started with a knife and then went and got a 20mm holesaw and that's absolutely the neatest way to do it. There is no way you can punch it out or knock it out with a screwdriver etc.

Hi, thank you for your product enquiry. To complete the installation of this British General IP55 Enclosure Grey 85 x 75 x 65mm you would need 20mm diameter glands/gaskets suitable for the type of cabling used.
