Duplex Switch Plate for Commercial Use
The Leviton PJ8-A is a one-gang duplex switch plate built from unbreakable thermoplastic for commercial environments. Its moulded construction resists impact, abrasion, fading and discolouration while withstanding mechanical stress in high-abuse applications. The almond finish provides a neutral appearance suitable for a variety of interior settings.
Midway Dimensions Simplify Installation
The plate measures 4.88 inches high by 3.13 inches wide, making it .375 inches taller and wider than standard wallplates. This midway size allows mounting onto larger-volume outlet boxes and helps conceal wall irregularities around the opening. The smooth face with rounded edges resists dust accumulation and requires no special tools or techniques beyond typical wallplate fitting.
Coverage Limits for Larger Openings
The 4.875 by 3.125 inch footprint comfortably covers standard duplex receptacles and minor wall imperfections around the box. It runs out when the cut-out or damaged area exceeds the extra .375 inch border beyond a standard plate. Builders needing to hide larger gaps or mount onto non-standard box configurations should verify the opening dimensions against the plate size before purchase.
