Nvent MP1 Low Voltage Mounting Plate 1 Gang

Product Description

The NVENT MP1 is a single-gang, low-voltage mounting plate designed for securing low-voltage wiring devices to finished walls without a standard electrical box. Constructed from pre-galvanized metal, it provides a durable and corrosion-resistant base for installations such as structured wiring, data cables, audio/video connections, and similar low-voltage runs. The MP1 accommodates wall thicknesses from 0.5 inches to 1.25 inches, making it suitable for a range of residential and light commercial drywall applications. Electricians and low-voltage technicians install this plate as part of a clean, code-appropriate finish for any single-gang low-voltage outlet location.

The MP1 is intended for single-gang low-voltage rough-in and finish work in residential and light commercial construction. Typical applications include keystone jack mounting, cable pass-through plates, telephone, and data outlet installations. The plate mounts directly to the drywall surface without requiring an electrical box, which reduces material cost and installation time in new construction and retrofit projects alike.

Key Features

• Pre-galvanized metal construction for durability and corrosion resistance
• Accommodates wall thicknesses from 0.5 inches to 1.25 inches
• Single-gang footprint fits standard 1-gang opening cutouts
• No electrical box required — mounts directly to drywall
• Suitable for low-voltage wiring applications including data, audio/video, and structured cabling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for single-gang low-voltage mounting plate applications in residential and light commercial drywall installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician or low-voltage technician. Before beginning work, verify that no active low-voltage wiring is energized at the work location. Use a drywall saw or oscillating tool to cut the single-gang opening to the correct size before securing the plate. Follow all applicable NEC low-voltage wiring requirements and local building codes.
