Overview

The nVent ProLine 100-mm Plinth Base (SKU: PPB188) elevates 800x800mm industrial enclosures by 100mm, providing structured cable access and environmental protection. It maintains a NEMA 12 rating without requiring a gland plate, thanks to a seamless polyurethane gasket that ensures a watertight, dust-tight seal against moisture and contaminants. The design includes two side gland plates for flexible cable management, ideal for joined or ganged enclosures. Sold separately, the PPB188 supports organized cable routing beneath sensitive equipment, reducing clutter and improving airflow. Compatible with nVent gland plate systems for full environmental protection, it is engineered for manufacturing plants, data centers, and utility facilities. The modular design allows straightforward installation with removable panels for easy cable entry and maintenance.
