Why this Overbox Versus others

When a smart meter replaces the old meter it can’t be placed in a broken meter
box. 5% of all boxes are broken at any one time. That's over 2.5 million. Meter boxes have not changed in design, material and manufacturing methods for decades. Current boxes are made from Glass Reinforced Plastic, GRP. 
This material becomes brittle with age causing boxes to crack and break. These are unsuitable for smart meter upgrades and service upgrades. 


The most common box is the recessed wall mounted box

Do you have a Built In or Cavity Box?

Usually white in colour, these boxes must be fitted by a builder at time of constructing a property or later by removing bricks.The house is fitted into the cavity wall with a small amount exposed from the wall of a building.   Typical dimensions: Dimensions

Height: 595mm

Width: 409mm

Depth: 214mm (60mm when recessed)


Advantages of The Overbox,

o  Moulded in ASA engineering material compared to competitor products moulded in GRP material or Aluminium.

o  High impact ASA engineering material is more resistant to; damage during transit, installation and damage from vandals compared to GRP materials used on conventional Meter Box Housings.

o  ASA Material is UV Stable with excellent resistance to weathering and colour discolouration. Developed specifically to meet the replacement repair needs of the smart meter roll out for gas and electric installations for inset meter boxes, whose dimensions are no bigger than 618mm height x 440mm width x 66mm depth.

o  ASA polymers provide long service life and are currently used in these products for outdoor applications: Water and Rainwater Fittings, Car Roof Boxes, Boat Hulls and Automotive and Garden Products. 

o  Unlike GRP ASA polymers are recyclable at end of life and can be reprocessed for further use as a moulding material.

o  Manufactured by injection moulding process rather than by compression or resin transfer moulding as standard practice for GRP. In comparison the injection moulded process advantages; reduced cycle time, economical production with minimal waste and a low energy manufacture.

o  ASA Material is 26% lighter than GRP.

o  ASA Material has 33% more impact strength than GRP.

o  ASA moulded products are friendly to handle rather than GRP products containing short chopped strands of glass.
