Are you designing a control panel for a new machine or a sub-panel for a building? Our Standard Power Distribution Box drawing is the essential, universal blueprint you need. This CAD file provides the complete fabrication and layout details for the most common type of indoor electrical enclosure.

This drawing represents the “workhorse” of most electrical installations. It’s a general-purpose, indoor-rated (e.g., NEMA 1 or NEMA 12) enclosure, perfectly designed to safely house circuit breakers, terminal blocks, power supplies, PLCs, and other vital control components. Its primary job is to protect this sensitive equipment from dust, debris, and incidental contact while keeping personnel safe.

Having this standard drawing is the critical first step in any new panel build. It gives you a proven, industry-accepted design, saving you countless hours of basic design work. You can use this file to immediately begin your component layout, plan your wiring routes, and ensure your build meets common dimensional practices. This file is perfect for panel builders, electrical engineers, and machine designers who need a reliable, go-to template for all their typical projects.
