ELEQ Smart Multi Connection Box
For years, ELEQ has been the leading partner for providing safe and compact connections in lampposts. The rise of the multipurpose lamppost—where modern technology comes together to make a city “smarter”—requires new solutions. The existing lamppost is the most sustainable solution for everything to come together and is called a Smart Node.
To facilitate the smart Lamppost, ELEQ has developed the Smart Multi Connection Box. The multifunctional connection box is equipped with a compact kWh meter, communication module and other features to ensure optimal operation of the new functionalities.
- Efficient distribution of incoming power
- Accurate current measurement and calculation of each current division
- Load balancing for optimal distribution of incoming power
- Protection of both electrical components and data

Societal challenges require smart solutions and the right technology. That is what ELEQ offers.
Making cities accessible and liveable is a major challenge for the future. How do we shape the energy transition while keeping our infrastructure efficient and available? Technology and digitalisation play a major role in managing this large-scale change. A “Smart City” aims to increase the quality of life for its residents and visitors.
The lamppost as the key to sustainability and smartening up
The reuse of existing objects in private and public areas is the most sustainable solution and avoids a proliferation of lampposts, communication towers and EV charging stations. Because of their height and existing infrastructure, lampposts —combined with ELEQ’s smart solutions—are extremely suitable as solution for social challenges such as improving mobility, efficient energy use, health and safety.
