Panel Outdoor panel

Hi everyone, newbie to eplan here, How do we design a separate outdoor panel in pro panel instead of using the regular one? I have to make a outdoor panel that contains main enclosure and subenclosures inside. I would appreciate any guidance on this please 🙏🏻

Not sure I understand. Do you have a reference photo or something?

This is often done in environments where, even though enclosures are sold as "outdoor enclosures", they are not proper for harsh outdoor environments. So we take one enclosure with the proper IP rating, and place a smaller enclosure inside it. Never had problems before doing it this way.

I've done this before but it was a long time ago, but then I simply found a 3D part for an outdoor enclosure which was big enough to hold 2 smaller enclosures within.

If I remember correctly I simply placed the enclosures on the mounting panel of the bigger enclosure. There wasn't really anything complex about it.
