Enclosures

What is the difference between Nema 4 and Nema 4X?

Nema 4 enclosures provide a degree of protection of the equipment inside the enclosure against ingress of solid foreign objects (falling dirt and windblown dusty, to provide a degree of protection with respect to harmful effects on the equipment due to the ingress of water (rain, sleet, snow, splashing water, and hose directed water), and that will be undamaged by the external formation of ice on the enclosure. The only difference between NEMA 4 and NEMA 4X enclosures is that NEMA 4X enclosures offer corrosion resistance.
