Purpose and fit

The Tripp Lite N042AB000IVM is a single-gang blank wall plate designed to cover unused in-wall ports or outlets in homes, offices, schools and medical facilities. It provides a clean, professional finish while protecting openings from debris, tampering and unauthorised connections. The ivory matte colour blends with standard décor for a seamless appearance.

Build quality and daily use

The plate is moulded from high-impact ABS plastic that meets UL 94V-0 flame-retardant standards for fire and heat protection. Mounting screws are supplied for straightforward installation on any standard gang box. An antibacterial additive inhibits Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus and is tested to ISO 22196:2011, making the surface suitable for environments that require extra hygiene protection.

Upgrade context and TAA compliance

This wall plate replaces damaged, missing or non-compliant covers where a hygienic, fire-rated finish is needed. The jump is worth it when a project demands TAA compliance for GSA Schedule procurement or when antibacterial protection is specified for kitchens, clinics or classrooms. It is not intended for installations that require an active port cut-out or a different gang configuration.
