Abstract
An integral wall plate and power receptacle are provided for flush mounting on an electrical box or support. In that the wall plate and receptacle are made of insulating material the grounding of the wall plate is not required. The power receptacle includes a number of chambers into which contacts are selectively placed. Identification tabs on the contacts and keyways on the walls of the chambers limit insertion of the contacts to selected chambers and orient the contacts. The wall plate provides a smooth transition from the receptacle to thinned edges which receive mounting fasteners. An insert covers the base members and retains the contacts in their respective chambers while providing a smooth finished look to the wall plate.
