Overview

The nVent A8N6P steel panel is a precision-engineered mounting solution designed for Type 1 and Type 3R enclosures measuring 8x6 inches. Constructed from durable 14-gauge steel, this panel provides a stable platform for mounting circuit breakers, terminal blocks, relays, and other control devices in industrial electrical systems. The panel measures 6.25 x 4.25 inches (159 x 108 mm), ensuring a perfect fit within 8x6 enclosures while optimizing internal space utilization. Finished with a white polyester powder paint, the A8N6P offers excellent corrosion resistance and a professional appearance that enhances visibility during installation and maintenance. This panel is UL 50 and UL 50E listed for Type 1 applications and CSA C22.2 No 40 listed for Type 1, meeting NEMA Type 1 and IEC 60529 IP30 standards.
