may be referring to a ventilation or heating zone rather than to just the switchbox itself. Hard to tell without sentences before and after. Could even be referencing the amount of switchboxes used on a project (highly unlikely), but again without more content it is difficult to say.
Hope it helps!

Comment: "Thanks RNolder!! I think it does mean 120mm. I found some clues in the text later that suggest that it does mean 120 mm. I must have been tooo tired that day and your suggestion pointed out the way!! Thanks..
Kenneth your explanation was also very useful. Solved the 'er' problem. Thanks !!!"

German term (edited):
120er-Schaltk�sten
120-series or 120-position
In my experience, XXer is commonly used in German to refer either to a model line (e.g. 3er BMW) or to the number of positions or capacity of something (e.g. 3er Sessellift = 3-person chair lift).
Here in the absence of any other context I would guess that this referes to a model or series (120-series), since no matter how you translate Schaltkast, something that could accommodate 120 items wold be quite unusually large.
I suppose that 120er could also mean 120-mm, but I've never seen this usage, and a 120-mm electrical cabinet or breaker box would be rather small.
