Q & A
Is a narrow electrical box needed when using these narrow rocker switch plates?
No. A standard electrical box is 2 inches wide yet still has to be roomy enough to hold the electrical device. Narrow Decora switch covers are used to hide the remaining exposed wall box when there are obstructions (moulding, cabinets, tiling, etc.) butting up against it or slightly covering it. The narrow rocker switch plate will fit into the tight space between obstructions, covering the exposed part of the box. (Typically wall plates are wider to cover adjoining paneling, Sheetrock or plaster, but narrow plates are used when there is something on the wall surface getting in the way.) Consult an electrician regarding codes for your installation.
