Hull plates were tile-like protective objects that covered the hull of Starships and shuttles. They were capable of conducting electricity.

In 2267, Lieutenant Boma expressed his concerns that the hull plates wouldn't survive repeated attacks by ape-like creatures. Later, during the electrification of the hull, Commander Spock warned Montgomery Scott not to touch the plates. (TOS: "The Galileo Seven")

In 2370, Captain Jean-Luc Picard ordered Data to release the exterior hull plate in preparation for jettisoning the warp core. (TNG: "Eye of the Beholder")

In 2376, a spatial fluctuation caused one of the hull plates of the Delta Flyer to fly off. Captain Kathryn Janeway asked William Telfer to beam it to the aft section for analysis. (VOY: "Good Shepherd")
