IP65 Waterproof Outdoor Distribution Box (HA): Key Features & Typical Use
Tall and Narrow for Awkward Walls
The LYC3 uses a vertical layout rather than the wider proportions of a typical outdoor box. That suits narrow wall runs between windows, columns or equipment bay uprights, where a wider enclosure would either not fit or would obstruct access. The HA format runs from LYC3-4 at 107 x 205 x 100 mm up to LYC3-36 at 273 x 529 x 110 mm.IP65 Weather Protection
Waterproof and dustproof to IP65, the series is built for outdoor positions where the enclosure will see direct rain, splashing or wash-down. The ABS flame-retardant panel and enclosure resist impact and UV exposure, and the PC transparent cover keeps the internal devices visible without requiring the box to be opened for a routine check.Capacity That Grows With the Site
The range covers 4 ways to 36 ways, so an installation can start with a small box for the first circuits and add capacity later using the same product family and the same mounting pattern. Because the enclosure depth stays at 100 or 110 mm, the wall projection is consistent as the way count increases.Seal Kept Intact During Inspection
The flip-top observation window allows inspection while the enclosure remains sealed, which is important where the box is exposed. On an outdoor enclosure the gasket is the component most likely to be damaged by repeated opening, so reducing the number of times the cover is opened directly extends the interval before the enclosure needs service.IP65 Waterproof Outdoor Distribution Box (HA) Specifications & Technical Data

LYC3 — Tall and Narrow IP65 Outdoor Distribution Box
A wall between two windows, a gap beside a column, the upright of an equipment bay: outdoor mounting positions are often tall and narrow rather than generous. The LYC3 uses a vertical layout for exactly those places, in the HA format, from LYC3-4 at 107 x 205 x 100 mm up to LYC3-36 at 273 x 529 x 110 mm.This enclosure is also described as a narrow outdoor distribution box, a vertical weatherproof box or an IP65 column-mounted box, and it is compared with the wider LYC2 format and with metal outdoor cabinets. Mounting space usually decides the choice: positions between windows, beside columns and on equipment bay uprights are long and narrow, and a wide enclosure either will not fit or will obstruct access that the site needs.The enclosure is rated IP65, so it is protected against dust and against water projected from a nozzle rather than only light rain, and the ABS flame-retardant body with PC transparent cover resists impact and UV exposure. A flip-top observation window lets the board be inspected with the seal intact, which reduces the number of times the gasket is disturbed over the life of the installation.Capacity runs from 4 ways to 36 ways so a site can be built up in stages using the same product family and the same mounting pattern, with a consistent 100 or 110 mm depth throughout. Each box is supplied with the panel, the neutral and earth busbar set, a DIN rail and the enclosure, and takes standard DIN-rail breakers.
Factory-Direct IP65 Waterproof Outdoor Distribution Box (HA) Manufacturer & OEM / ODM
We Manufacture, You Brand
LYE Technology (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. is a national high-tech enterprise and manufacturer in Wenzhou, China: sheet-metal fabrication, welding, powder coating, busbar machining and final assembly run on our own factory lines, and every unit is function-tested before it leaves the works. A LYC3 IP65 Waterproof Outdoor Distribution Box (HA) that reaches your site carries the routine test behind it, not just the rating on the nameplate.We are one of the Top 10 Brands of China's small power distribution boxes and a drafter of national standards in this category, and we hold ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, CCC, CE and TUV certification. Because we are the manufacturer rather than a trading company, our sales engineers quote from your drawing in factory-direct terms, and OEM or ODM work is produced on the same lines as our standard products.For the LYC3 we mould the flame-retardant vertical body and fit the PC cover in-house, so a specific mounting pattern or cable entry arrangement is settled before the moulding run.- OEM branding — custom colours, laser marking and your own project or retail packaging, applied at the factory.
- ODM options — ratings, configurations and internal layouts built around your drawings or single-line diagram.
- Certification — ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, CCC, CE and TUV, with test documents supplied per project.
- MOQ — flexible quantities for a project or a trial order, with mixed types welcome in one shipment.

IP65 Waterproof Outdoor Distribution Box (HA) Buying Guide from the Manufacturer
Mounting space usually decides the LYC3 specification. These are the points we confirm.
- Measure the available wall run, since the tall narrow format suits restricted widths.
- Describe the exposure, including direct rain, wash-down and dust at the position.
- Count the circuits to fix the way count from 4 ways up to 36 ways.
- Confirm the cable entry direction and the gland arrangement required.
- Send the circuit schedule, site photographs and mounting detail.
- Approve the drawing, then production and dispatch.

What is a narrow outdoor distribution box?
It is an outdoor distribution enclosure with a tall, narrow form factor, designed for positions where horizontal space is short but vertical space is available. The LYC3 is rated IP65 with an ABS flame-retardant panel and enclosure and a PC transparent cover, running from 107 x 205 x 100 mm for a four-way unit up to 273 x 529 x 110 mm for a 36-way board.Where are vertical outdoor distribution boxes used?
They are used on narrow wall runs between windows, beside columns, on equipment bay uprights, and on posts where a wider box would obstruct access or be struck by passing vehicles. Typical duties are outdoor lighting and power circuits on farms, parking areas, industrial yards and residential compounds, and for temporary supplies during construction works.What is the difference between the LYC2 and LYC3 outdoor boxes?
Both carry the same IP65 rating and the same ABS flame-retardant construction with a PC transparent cover. The difference is proportion and capacity stepping: the LYC3 uses a tall, narrow vertical layout for restricted wall runs, while the LYC2 uses more conventional wider proportions. The LYC3 also runs to a 36-way board against the LYC2 range topping out at 24 ways.Who manufactures narrow outdoor distribution boxes?
Most suppliers in this segment also produce the wider outdoor format and indoor boards, so the differences show in the moulding and the sealing rather than in the basic function. Ask whether the vertical body is moulded by the supplier, how the cover gasket is retained, and how cable entries are sealed at the glands. LYE manufactures the LYC3 in Wenzhou and holds ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, CCC, CE and TUV certification.How much does an IP65 outdoor distribution box cost?
Indicative factory-direct pricing is roughly US$8 to US$120 per unit, depending on the size, the way count, whether breakers are fitted and the quantity ordered. Because the range steps from 4 to 36 ways with a consistent 100 or 110 mm depth, a site can be supplied with a mix of sizes on one mounting pattern, which simplifies both ordering and spares holding.

Use a distribution box for final circuits and compact branch protection; use a cabinet when the project needs larger incoming capacity, more feeder groups, metering, busbars or greater internal separation. The final choice should be checked against the single-line diagram, device list, available installation space and local project rules.
Provide the device schedule, circuit quantity, component dimensions, cable-entry direction, mounting method and required spare capacity. LYE also reviews door clearance, bending radius, heat-producing devices and the usable depth behind the mounting plate before confirming an enclosure size.
Start with the actual exposure to dust, rain, cleaning water and accidental contact rather than choosing the highest number by default. Cable entries, ventilation, door seals and installation workmanship affect the finished assembly, so the target rating and verification basis must be confirmed for the specific product and project.
Coated or galvanized steel is commonly considered for general indoor service, stainless steel for humid or corrosive locations, and engineering plastic for lightweight non-metallic applications. Material grade, thickness, UV exposure, chemical contact and earthing requirements must be confirmed against the installation environment.
Share the component heat load, ambient temperature, solar exposure, duty cycle and allowable internal temperature. LYE can then review enclosure volume, spacing, ventilation or fan provisions, sun shields, heaters or drainage details; the final thermal design remains tied to the installed equipment and site conditions.
Yes. A dimensioned drawing is preferred, but a physical sample and clear reference photographs can also start the review. Material, thickness, openings, hardware, finish, labels, inspection points and packing are recorded before sampling or repeat production.
PDF and common 2D CAD drawings are suitable for most enclosure enquiries, while 3D files can help with complex assemblies. Include a revision number, units, tolerances and component references; file compatibility and any missing production information will be confirmed during review.
A sample or first article can be arranged for a new or customized product. The approval plan should identify dimensions, openings, fit, appearance, hardware, labels and packaging, together with the sample cost and timing agreed for the actual order.
Available documents may include approved drawings, packing lists, dimensional or appearance inspection records, product data and certificates applicable to the confirmed model. Destination-specific declarations or third-party testing must be requested before order placement so availability and scope can be verified.
Lead time is confirmed after the product scope, quantity, sample requirement and finish are known. Packing is reviewed against product weight, surface protection, destination and shipping method; if an issue is found after delivery, send the order reference, label, photographs and quantity affected so it can be traced and reviewed.
