The word order is slightly confusing, but I think it needs to be interpreted as 'the drawer in the cubicle (a kind of module) that forms part of the electrical distribution cabinet' — and the translation adopted needs to reflect all of that; in particular, there is a specific translation for 'cubicle' (readily found via some elementary research) and IMHO as an electrical engineer, it is VITAL to incorporate this into the expression used.
and should read "cubicle" of course ("cubical" is off-course :-) )
