Leviton 80401-E 1-gang Decora Gfci Wallplate Black

Product Description

The LEVITON 80401-E is a 1-gang Decora and GFCI-style wallplate finished in black, designed for standard residential and light commercial electrical installations. Constructed from thermoset plastic, this device-mount wallplate features a smooth face with rounded edges that resist dust accumulation over time. Color-matched mounting screws are included, and on single-gang thermoplastic versions, mounting screws are preinstalled and captive for faster installation. Electricians and finish carpenters reach for this plate when completing outlet, switch, or GFCI receptacle installations where a clean, durable face cover is required.

This wallplate fits standard 1-gang electrical boxes and is suited for use with Decora-style devices and GFCI receptacles. It is appropriate for residential wiring projects, light commercial tenant improvements, and renovation work where a consistent black finish is specified throughout. The plate pairs with standard device configurations and is sized for single-gang box openings without modification.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician or qualified tradesperson in accordance with NEC requirements. Turn off power at the breaker before removing any existing wallplate or working near live devices. Align the plate over the installed device and tighten the mounting screw snugly - do not overtighten, as excessive torque can crack thermoset plastic. Confirm the device is fully seated and secured in the box before applying the wallplate.
