Typical electronic equipment enclosures are engineered to protect vital equipment in harsh conditions. Made from rigid plastics or metals (steel, aluminum), weatherproof enclosures play a vital role in maintaining network integrity.
The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) rates enclosures “to designate protection against hazardous, non-hazardous, and other specific environmental conditions.” Ratings range from simple protection against dust and debris to comprehensive security versus rain, ice, corrosive agents, chemicals and more—as well as specific industry-based ratings (i.e., mining, gas, etc.).
So what do all the ratings mean? For a simple, complete look at various NEMA enclosure ratings, we suggest going straight to the source. The link below will take you directly to NEMA’s document outlining enclosure types and ratings specifics.
