Abstract: An electrical wiring device including a housing including a front cover coupled to at least one body member, the front cover including a plurality of receptacle openings in a major front surface thereof, the plurality of receptacle openings being configured to receive a plurality of plug blades of a corded electrical plug, wherein the plurality of receptacle openings includes at least a ground prong opening and the at least one body member includes at least one set of receptacle contacts including a hot receptacle contact and a neutral receptacle contact; and a shutter assembly positioned within the housing and including a first shutter member coupled to a second shutter member, wherein the first shutter member is configured to move from a first position to a second position when a ground prong is inserted through the ground prong opening.

Abstract: An electrical wiring device assembly having a uniform user facing surface that can be provided with a new electrical wiring device or retrofit to an existing wiring device. The surface is a sleeve that omits crevices, gaps, indentations and other irregularities that can collect and harbor harmful pathogens. The sleeve can be rigid or flexible and is coupled to the wiring device to allow a user to operate the wiring device, such as by allowing a user to move a toggle or paddle switch, while covering the user facing side of the wiring device.

Abstract: A modular electrical wiring device assembly including, but not limited to, a frame assembly having a top surface, a bottom surface, a width, a length and a height; a primary opening defined by a primary opening surface, wherein the primary opening is positioned through the top surface and the bottom surface; a cover plate positioned over and in contacting relation to the top surface of the frame assembly, wherein the cover plate includes a cover plate opening positioned over and in line with the primary opening; and a modular electrical wiring device positioned through the cover plate opening and the primary opening, wherein a portion of the modular electrical wiring device is positioned below the bottom surface of the frame assembly.

Abstract: A color change kit for an electrical wiring device, the color change kit including: a frame having: a top surface, a second surface, a width, a length and a height; a bezel extending above the top surface of the frame and having a width, a length and a height, an interior surface and a top perimeter surface, and an opening formed therethrough; and an elongated recessed separator having a top surface and a bottom surface and being positioned within the opening and below the top perimeter surface, extending along an axis parallel to the length of the bezel, wherein the elongated recessed separator is configured to split a portion the opening into a first aperture and a second aperture; a toggle switch cover positioned through and actuatable within the first aperture, and a dimmer slider positioned and actuatable within the second aperture.
