Appleton FS-1-DCS 1-gang Steel Duplex Receptacle Cover

Product Description

The APPLETON FS-1-DCS is a 1-gang steel cover plate designed for duplex receptacle outlets. It provides a durable, close-fitting cover for standard duplex receptacles installed in FS-style conduit outlet boxes. Fabricated from steel, this cover is suited for commercial, industrial, and institutional electrical installations where a robust, code-compliant cover is required. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this cover as part of a complete conduit wiring assembly. Its low-profile form factor and steel construction make it a reliable choice for exposed conduit systems in demanding environments.

This cover plate is used in commercial and industrial settings where FS-style surface-mount conduit outlet boxes house duplex receptacles. Typical applications include factory floors, warehouses, utility rooms, mechanical spaces, and other locations requiring surface-mount wiring methods. It is installed over a duplex receptacle seated in a 1-gang FS box, completing the box assembly and protecting the device and wiring terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify the absence of voltage before handling any wiring or devices in the outlet box. Secure the cover to the FS box using the appropriate machine screws for the box mounting pattern. Do not overtighten fasteners, as this can distort the steel cover or damage device yokes.
