Why Choose the nVent HOFFMAN SMP1318E Mounting Plate?
The nVent HOFFMAN SMP1318E is a durable galvanised steel mounting plate designed for installing electrical and control components within compatible nVent HOFFMAN SABP terminal boxes. Part of the nVent HOFFMAN SMP series, it provides a secure internal mounting surface while helping simplify terminal box assembly and component installation.
Manufactured from 1.5 mm galvanised steel, the SMP1318E provides the rigidity required for mounting terminals, relays and other electrical components. The plate can be machined and equipped with components before it is fitted into the terminal box, helping reduce installation time and making workshop assembly more efficient.
The SMP1318E is intended for SABP boxes with nominal enclosure dimensions of 125 × 175 mm, while the mounting plate itself measures approximately 98 × 148 mm. Its robust construction and straightforward installation make it suitable for industrial control, automation, instrumentation and electrical distribution applications.

Efficient Component Mounting for Electrical Enclosures
Mounting plates provide a dedicated internal surface for installing electrical equipment without requiring components to be attached directly to the terminal box body. This gives panel builders greater flexibility when positioning terminals, relays, control devices and other equipment while maintaining an organised enclosure layout.
The nVent HOFFMAN SMP1318E can be machined and populated with components before being installed inside the enclosure. This supports efficient workshop preparation and faster final assembly, while its galvanised steel construction provides a stable and durable foundation for industrial electrical equipment.
