A61P68NG

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures A61P68NG is a conductive backplate designed for large, free-standing Type 1 enclosures. Constructed from 12-gauge mild steel with a galvanized finish, it measures 68 inches in width and 61.16 inches in height. This panel is specifically engineered to fit 72 x 72/73 inch Type 1 two-door freestanding enclosures. It serves as a solid mounting surface for electrical components within industrial environments requiring NEMA 1 protection standards.

Feature Summary

• Conductive steel construction for grounding continuity
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance
• Solid design providing rigid component mounting support

Applications

• Large Type 1 two-door freestanding enclosures
• Industrial electrical equipment housing
• Disconnect switch installations

Procurement Notes

Verify enclosure compatibility before purchase. Confirm the target unit matches the specified 72 x 72/73 inch dimensions. Ensure the application requires a conductive backplate for proper grounding. Check that the galvanized finish meets environmental requirements. Validate that the 12-gauge thickness aligns with structural load needs.

Selection Notes

Select this part only when replacing or upgrading panels for compatible nVent Hoffman large enclosures. The 12-gauge thickness offers specific structural rigidity compared to other gauges. The galvanized finish provides baseline corrosion protection suitable for standard indoor or protected outdoor use. Ensure the conductive property is necessary for the system's grounding scheme.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman series of enclosure accessories. It complements the main enclosure body by providing an internal mounting structure. The product line focuses on industrial-grade metal enclosures for electrical distribution and control applications.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other manufacturer panels matching 68x61.16 inch dimensions and 12-gauge steel specifications. Verify hole patterns and mounting points match the original enclosure frame exactly.
