Centaur PLVP2G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need an electrical box behind the Centaur PLVP2G low voltage plate?
No box required. The PLVP2G mounts straight to the wallboard using integrated mounting wings that clamp onto the drywall, so you cut the opening, pass your wiring through, and tighten the wings. That is what makes it a rework (old work) plate for walls that are already closed up.
2) Can I use the PLVP2G for line voltage receptacles or switches?
No. This is a low voltage plate only, meant for data, audio, coaxial, or control wiring. It clamps to drywall with no enclosure behind it, so there is nothing to contain a line voltage device. For 120V devices you need a proper boxed device plate.
3) What opening size does the Centaur 2-gang low voltage plate cover?
It is a 2-gang plate measuring 4.32 x 4.25 x 4.25 inches overall, so it covers a standard two-gang drywall cutout. If you are retrofitting over a ragged or oversized hole from a removed two-gang box, the plate's outer footprint is what you have to work with.
4) How many Centaur PLVP2G plates come in a pack?
They ship six to a pack, model PLVP2G, at 0.66 lbs. That quantity suits a multi-unit or multi-room retrofit where you are pulling data or AV drops at several locations.
5) What color and material is the Centaur PLVP2G?
White non-metallic plastic. The plastic body means no bonding is required, which keeps the install simple for a low voltage drop, and white matches most standard device plates already on the wall.
6) Is the PLVP2G suitable for commercial tenant fit-outs or just houses?
Both. It is used for covering low-voltage openings in retrofit or existing wall installations, residential or commercial, which is the typical case when adding network, coax, or control cabling to a finished space without opening the wall.
