Orbit GDB-1-MC 3-1/2 Gang Switch Cover

Product Description

The ORBIT GDB-1-MC is a 3-1/2 gang switch cover plate designed for electrical wiring applications in residential and light commercial construction. This device cover accommodates multiple switch or outlet configurations in a single gang arrangement, providing a finished appearance over standard electrical boxes. Licensed electricians and experienced electrical contractors install this type of cover as part of rough-in and finish work on branch circuits and device installations. The part weighs 36.0 pounds per package, making it suited for bulk supply orders on larger projects.

The GDB-1-MC is used in standard electrical finish work where multiple switching devices need to be housed behind a single cover plate. Typical applications include residential living spaces, hallways, and commercial office installations where grouped switch positions are required. This cover is installed during the finish stage of electrical work, after device wiring and box mounting are complete.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always de-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify absence of voltage before working on any electrical device or cover. Secure the cover plate to the device box using the appropriate mounting screws, ensuring the plate sits flush against the wall surface. Do not force-fit or over-tighten mounting hardware, as this may crack the cover or damage the device box.
