NEW Clipsal Meterbox – 230DRAVL2
We’re pleased to introduce the new Clipsal 230DRAVL2 Meterbox, designed specifically for the Victorian residential market to support the future of home electrification. With a generous 42-pole DIN space (2 rows of 21 modules), the 230DRAVL2 offers increased capacity and flexibility to meet evolving energy needs.
Orders open from 1 December 2025, with deliveries commencing mid-January 2026. See below for a full list of product features & benefits.
230DRAVL2 – Key Features and Benefits
- Future-ready design: 42-pole DIN space (2 × 21M rows) to support additional circuit protection devices for modern residential energy needs.
- Generous wiring space: The 150mm spacing between DIN rails provides plenty of room for installing Clipsal’s Resi MAX and MAX9 devices. The DIN rail position is moved further up which makes top-feeding easier and allows smooth integration of MAXBAR with connectors. Well-positioned cable knockouts ensure quick and efficient fit-off.
- Neutral and Earth terminal bars: The design includes just the right number of neutral terminals to work seamlessly with Clipsal’s RCBOs (without neutral tails) and the Phase Neutral busbar system — delivering a cost-effective solution for RCBO users. For installations requiring additional neutral and earth terminals, a compatible neutral and earth grid assembly will be available as a spare under the part number 230DRANEK.
- Integrated service fuse holders: Includes 3 x service fuse holders for convenient 3 phase installs and a neutral link for streamlined cable termination and testing.
- Durable build: Constructed from Galvabon® steel with a neutral finish – ready to blend in or be painted.
- Weather-resistant: IP23-rated with ventilation louvres, provides added protection.
- Meter panel: Hinged meter panel of 380mm (H) × 400mm (W) with space for two meters ensures ample mounting and wiring room.
- Secure access: Features an internal lock and key that have been approved by the state’s supply authority, VicPower and optional external lock provision for added flexibility.

End-Of-Year eCommerce Insights
As the year draws into a close, now is the time to sharpen your approach and set the stage for a successful 2026. Here are four strategies to help you finish strong:
1. Re-think Your KPIs:
Aligning your KPIs with digital sales metrics will help you understand whether your efforts are driving growth through eComm.
2. Gather Feedback:
Engage with Sparkies to uncover what’s missing in their in-branch experience. Use these insights to guide conversations on how eComm can complement their needs.
3. Highlight the Value:
A simple email can build trust and spark interest. Remind Sparkies of the benefits of ordering online, speed, ease, and flexibility.

Multifactor Authentication with mySchneider
At Schneider, safeguarding our shared digital environment is a top priority.
Multifactor Authentication (MFA) is a simple yet powerful way to enhance security and protect sensitive information when using mySchneider. By requiring a second form of verification — like a code sent to your phone or an Authenticator App, MFA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorised access.
For you, our Distributor partners, this means greater peace of mind, stronger data protection, and a more resilient business ecosystem. Enabling MFA is quick, easy, and a smart step toward ensuring our systems remain secure and trustworthy for everyone.
MySchneider MFA Launch coming in 2026
In the lead-up to the launch, we’ll be sharing more information, guidance, and communication to help you prepare and make the transition as smooth as possible. This feature is available in mySchneider now, which you can access and enable today through your profile!
MFA will be automatically applied and mandatory in mySchneider in early 2026, and we want to ensure you feel confident and supported every step of the way.
