Fireproof electrical junction box (embodiments)

Abstract

The invention relates to electrical equipment, and more particularly to electrical junction boxes having in the structure thereof a fire extinguishant for preventing combustion. The technical problem addressed by the claimed solutions is that of broadening the functional capabilities of electrical junction boxes. The technical result of the claimed invention consists in making it possible to completely suppress combustion inside an electrical junction box without the use of external fire-extinguishing means. This technical result is achieved in a fireproof electrical junction box comprising a polymer housing with inner projections that form a cavity for holding a fire extinguishant designed to be capable of exiting into the space of the housing to be protected, said fire extinguishant consisting of an aerosol-forming composition (AFC) or a mixture of an AFC and a microencapsulated agent. The technical result is also achieved in a fireproof electrical junction box comprising a polymer housing with a thermal cord disposed therein that is filled with a fire extinguishant designed to be capable of exiting into the space of the housing to be protected, said fire extinguishant consisting of an aerosol-forming composition (AFC) or a mixture of an AFC and a microencapsulated agent.
