Modular outlet/receptacle system

This system of electrical wiring devices uses a modular architecture to allow users to trade out standard outlets, GFCIs, switches, and dimmer switches without ever having to touch the wiring. The base module (top left) – into which the wiring devices snap - completely hides all wiring, making it safe for homeowners to avoid wiring while switching the devices. For the installer, the system’s patented junction box and mud shield keeps drywall mud out of the box, so it’s no longer necessary to clean out boxes before switches and outlets can be installed. The devices are available in 15A or 20A, 125VAC models.
