No problem. Our box stores carry them and any electrical supply will have them.

Pay no mind to md now, being a PITA is part of his nature. Do listen to him when he speaks on technical topics, he's one of our better sparky's.

Hey, I thought the same thing before the edit. I actually got scared for a minute.

Yes, a 2 gang plate with a switch opening on one side and a blank on the other side is available at the supply house for about a dollar. They are a normal truck stock item for me (just one), and they help me out of a jam sometimes. Your other option is to use a regular 2 gang switch plate and use a dummy filler to fill the other switch opening. The dummy switch fillers are available at the supply house too. They're only 50 cents.

$.50 for a decco blank?
Where do you shop at, those are like 3.50 at bum depot, and the house is a little more than that

mdshunk

I don't shop at the big box stores, and I don't use Decora. The regular snap switch dummies are about 50 cents.

JamesNLA

Darn, I was hoping they came down in price.

fast pasquale

my h.d. didn't carry them

Because Home Depot is not an electrical supply house. The P&S part number is TPJ113-I (or -W or -LA or whatever color you need).

md, EVERYBODY is Decora today. I've done a number of whole house changeouts. Bone is also out, White or black Decora is now a fashion statement.

Havn't seen or done a Decora home in a very long time. Must be a geographical trend.

I would say yes to the Decora style being a "geographical trend"......everybody here in Northern California has Decora style outlets and switches, and if they dont were putting them in for them

In the past few years all the full change outs (recepts - sw) have all been decco. I don't even ask anymore. And at $20 per recpt the HO loves the new look. Add another 6 bucks if I pig tail it, which is almost always....15A
