This is our 32 amp power distribution unit, or distro box as most of the trade calls it. Feed one 32A 240V supply into it and you get six separately protected 16A outputs, plus a 32A feed-through socket you can loop into another box if you need more circuits. It splits and protects whatever is feeding it rather than making power itself, so it always sits between your supply and your kit: one of our diesel generators outdoors, or a proper venue supply indoors. A household 13A socket won't feed it.
Sockets and protection
- Input: 32A 240V plug inlet
- Outputs: 1x 32A 240V feed-through socket, 6x 16A 240V sockets
- Protection: 1x 40A 30mA double pole RCD covering the whole board, six 'C' type 16A MCBs, one per output
- All the breakers sit behind a hinged clear polycarbonate window, so fingers and weather stay off them while you can still read every switch mid-event
The internals are built by PCE in Austria on their IMST chassis: shock-resistant polyamide housing, a steel carry handle and rubber corner lugs, with splash-proof caps on every socket. Around 7kW of total load comes down that single 32A inlet when it's working flat out, which happily runs a caterer's stand or a trader pitch: an electric urn on one circuit, fridges on another, festoon lighting and a PA on the rest.
Need more than six ways? Stack further IMST boxes straight on top of this one. We also hire the 415V three-phase version and a simpler four-output model. For events in Sheffield, Chesterfield and beyond, this kit along with everything else on the site is our own stock, looked after in our 25,000 sq ft warehouse near the M1, backed by more than 25 years of running events.

Hire details
- From £25 per unit, with an overnight option for an extra £25 and discounts for longer-term hires
- Same day, next day or rapid response delivery depending on your dates
- Risk assessments and method statements can be emailed to you or your venue before the event, and our hires carry £5 million public liability cover
Where it works
- Indoors on hard floors or artificial grass, outdoors on grass, concrete, hard standing or wood chip
- Splash-proof housing with hinged caps on every socket, so outdoor use is normal rather than exceptional
- Pairs with our generator fleet, which comes with safety fencing and fire extinguishers as standard. If noise or fumes rule diesel out, ask about the Instagrid LINK 6.3kWh Electric Generator
- Tidy the cable runs with cable protectors across walkways, or Roll a Track Flooring over grass
- Loads we put on these weekly: gazebo heaters, marquee lighting, PA racks and catering kit
- More ways needed? Chain units together via the 32A feed-through, or step up to the 32 AMP 415V IMST Power Distribution Unit for three-phase kit, or choose the 32 AMP 240V IMST 4x 16amp out Power Distribution Unit when four outputs are plenty
