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.

Electrical wiring device assemblies with easy to clean surfaces

An electrical wiring device for delivering power to multiple mobile devices including: a housing having a faceplate; a first power delivery port accessible through the faceplate; a second power delivery accessible through the faceplate; an AC/DC converter disposed in the housing and configured to receive an AC signal from a connection to a source of AC mains power and to output a DC signal; a first DC/DC converter disposed in the housing and configured to receive the DC signal and provide a first DC output signal having a first power to a first power delivery port; a second DC/DC converter disposed in the housing and configured to receive the DC signal and provide a second DC output signal having a second power to a second power delivery port; wherein the first DC output signal is different from the second DC output signal.

Electrical wiring device for delivering power to multiple mobile devices

Combined wiring device with multiple power delivery ports

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.

Tamper-resistant electrical wiring devices

Toggle switch with variable actuator control

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.

Toggle switch and variable actuator control

USB receptacle device

The present invention is directed to an electrical wiring device that includes a plurality of line terminals, a plurality of feed-through load terminals, and at least one set of receptacle load terminals. A circuit interrupter assembly includes a plurality of movable interconnection members. Each movable interconnection member includes a first interconnecting contact disposed on a first side thereof and a second interconnecting contact disposed on a second side thereof. The first interconnecting contact and the second interconnecting contact are offset from one another in a direction substantially orthogonal to a direction of movement. The movable interconnection members are movable in the direction of movement between a reset position wherein the line terminals, the feed-through load terminals and the receptacle load terminals are electrically connected, and a tripped position wherein the the various terminals are electrically disconnected.

Electrical device with miswire protection and automated testing

Universal serial bus (USB) electrical wiring device

Universal serial bus electrical wiring device

The present invention is directed to a device for regulating an amount of electrical power provided to at least one electrical load, the device comprising a control circuit disposed in the housing and including at least one switch device movable between a first switch state and a second switch state. The control circuit further includes a power control element that has a power control actuator configured to adjust the amount of power provided to the at least one electrical load. A variable control actuator is accessible to the user via the control aperture and coupled to the power control actuator via a linkage structure. The linkage structure further includes a pin and channel arrangement configured to convert a user control action into a power control actuator adjustment by translating rotational motion into linear motion or linear motion into rotational motion.

The present invention is directed to a device for controlling electrical power provided to at least one electrical load. The actuator retainer housing includes a toggle actuator disposed adjacent to a variable control actuator in a side-by-side arrangement within the actuator retainer housing with no framing or support structure disposed therebetween. The variable control actuator includes a rotatable axial variable control mounting structure coupled to the actuator retainer housing. The axial toggle mounting structure and the axial variable control mounting structure are substantially parallel to a central latitudinal axis. An electronic control circuit is coupled to the plurality of control terminals and the modular switch actuation assembly. The electronic control circuit is configured to respond to actuations of the toggle actuator and/or the variable control actuator.
