However near my front door I have a four gang box with four acenti switches in it. I would like to replace one of the switches with a timer so that my front porch lights turn on and off on their own. THe timer I have is decora size. Do they make some sort of filler that i can use to make the decora sized timer fit into an acenti plate?
Thank
Chuck

Are Commercial Receptacles Worth the Higher Price?

Here at OneStopBuy, we come from the school that taught us you get what you pay for. Leviton's residential grade receptacles (T5320, for example) are hard to knock since they're better than their competitors' receptacles; but, at the same time, they're limited to 14 GA wire for the quickwire, and you have to use the Side Screw version for 12 GA circuits. They also weigh only half of what commercial devices weigh, so there are definitely lighter, considerably weaker plastics used.
On the other hand, commercial receptacles like the TBR15 have clamps for tightening down against a straight piece of wire, so wiring is very clean and secure. The materials dissipate heat and so these also have Triple Wipe contacts that hold on 3 points rather than pinch on 2 points like the residential device.
Even someone at our own office, right now, is in the process of replacing all the 4-year-old Cooper Wiring Devices in his home with Leviton TBR devices. The difference is definitely there.
A residential device in a seldom-used application will work for years. They're guaranteed for 1 year. But the commercial grade devices will last a lifetime in even heavily-used appliactions, and they're guaranteed for 10 years.
OneStopBuy now offers high-quality cable for a variety of applications, including Audio/Video Connectivity, Ethernet, Fiber, FireWire, PCs, and more. These products use only the finest components and the latest construction technologies to optimize cable performance.
