Eaton 2051w-box Decorator Gfci Wallplate Single Gang White

Product Description

The EATON 2051w-box is a single-gang, mid-size decorator and GFCI wallplate designed to cover standard decorator-style receptacles, GFCI outlets, and compatible switches. Made from thermoset plastic, this wallplate resists impact, heat, and discoloration over time, making it a dependable finish piece for residential and light commercial electrical installations. The white color provides a clean, neutral appearance that suits most interior trim applications. At 0.05 pounds and a slim 0.08-inch depth profile, it mounts flush against the wall without adding bulk to the outlet box assembly. Licensed electricians and knowledgeable DIYers install this plate as the final step in a device rough-in or replacement job.

This wallplate is suited for single-gang electrical boxes in residential homes, apartments, hotels, and light commercial spaces where decorator or GFCI devices are installed. It fits the decorator cutout profile used by standard decora-style receptacles, GFCI outlets, and decorator rocker switches. The mid-size form factor sits between standard and oversized wallplate dimensions, offering slightly broader coverage for cleaner drywall gaps around older boxes or patched openings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician or qualified tradesperson in accordance with NEC guidelines. Always turn off the circuit breaker and verify the outlet is de-energized before removing an existing wallplate or servicing the device behind it. Align the plate over the device and secure it with the provided or standard 6-32 wallplate screw — do not overtighten, as thermoset plastic can crack under excessive torque. Confirm the device is fully seated in the box before installing the plate to ensure a flush, gap-free finish.
