Surface-mounted installations, such as surface-mounted cable ducts or trunking or surface-mounted distributor sockets, present a flexible solution for installation in the electrical infrastructure. With this installation type, electrical cables and components, such as sockets, switches or distributors, are mounted directly and visibly on the wall surface, instead of integrating them in walls or ceilings. This enables easy and quick implementation of electrical installations, which offers benefits for both renovations and for new builds. After all, surface-mounted installations allow for fast mounting and simplify later changes and modifications.

Advantages of surface-mounted installations at a glance

  • Easy installation and maintenance: As the cables are not routed in walls or ceilings, installation is quick and uncomplicated. Subsequent maintenance or extensions are significantly easier and more cost-effective, as no walls have to be ripped open.
  • Flexibility: Surface-mounted installations and surface-mounted housings offer high flexibility, as they can be adapted to new needs at any time. New sockets or switches can be added hassle-free, without requiring any major structural changes.
  • Safety: As the lines are routed visibly, possible hazards such as damaged cables can be identified and fixed quickly. This increases safety in day-to-day operations.

Applications of surface-mounted installations

Surface-mounted installations are used typically in all areas where flexibility and easy maintenance play an important role. They are often found in workshops, storage spaces, production halls and in residences as well as in offices where changes to the electrical infrastructure are required more frequently. Surface-mounted installations are also the perfect choice for temporary installations, such as at construction sites or events.
