Cable Protection Plate for Nonmetallic Cables
This steel protection plate is designed for use with nonmetallic cables or raceway wires in electrical installations. It provides a corrosion-resistant barrier that shields wiring from damage during and after construction. The interlocking design allows multiple plates to connect securely for longer runs. It is intended for electricians and contractors who need reliable cable protection in residential or commercial projects.
Pre-Galvanized Steel with Interlocking Design
The plate arrives ready to install with standard mounting hardware and fits into partition box configurations. Its pre-galvanized steel construction resists corrosion without additional treatment. The interlocking edges align automatically when plates are placed side by side, reducing alignment errors. The only common issue is ensuring the mounting surface is flat so the interlocking tabs engage fully across the full 1.5 in width.
5 in by 5 in Coverage for Standard Boxes
Each plate measures 5 in length by 5 in depth, covering standard electrical box openings with a 1.5 in width profile. This size comfortably handles typical nonmetallic cable bundles entering a single box. It runs out when protecting cables across multiple adjacent boxes or wider raceway entries that exceed the plate dimensions. For those situations, additional interlocking plates are required to maintain continuous protection.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the cable protection plate is installed correctly after mounting?
Check that the pre-galvanized steel plate sits flush against the partition box, the interlocking edges engage fully, and nonmetallic cables or raceway wires pass through without contacting sharp metal edges.
What comes in the box and what must I purchase separately for installation?
The package contains the RACO 2713R cable protection plate only; mounting screws, nonmetallic cables, raceway wires, and any required partition box are sold separately.
Which size of this cable protection plate should I select for my application?
Choose the 1.5 in width version when your partition box and cable bundle require that specific dimension; the plate measures 5 in length, 1.5 in width, and 5 in depth.
