Emergency duplex wall plate

The Hubbell SS8MEV is a single-gang stainless-steel cover designed for one vertical duplex receptacle. Its brushed finish and standard dimensions suit commercial and institutional wiring where emergency circuits must be clearly identified.

Chemical-resistant stainless construction

The plate carries a UL listing and is rated for chemical resistance, so cleaning agents and harsh environments do not degrade the surface. A protective film ships on the face to prevent scratches during installation and remains intact until the job is finished.

Low-profile mounting with brushed finish

At just 0.1 inch overall height the cover sits nearly flush to the wall, reducing snag points in high-traffic corridors. The single opening accepts a standard duplex outlet and the stainless material resists corrosion without adding noticeable weight at 0.11 units.

Questions about this item

Does the brushed stainless steel plate generate any heat or noise when the receptacle behind it is under continuous load?

The plate is a passive stainless steel cover with no electrical components, so it produces no heat or noise regardless of how long the circuit runs.

What mounting hardware or receptacle must already be in the wall for this standard-size duplex plate to fit?

It fits a standard single-gang box and a vertical duplex receptacle; the plate itself includes no screws or receptacle.

Will the .1 in overall height sit flush against an older metal box that may have a slightly raised plaster ring?

The thin .1 in profile and protective film allow it to sit close to the wall, but final fit depends on the existing box and ring dimensions.
