F4P P41050 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Centaur plastic raised cover plate fit a standard 4x4 electrical box?
Yes. The Centaur raised cover is a square plate sized for standard 4x4 boxes, and it adds a 1/2 inch raise so a device sits proud of the box. That extra depth is what gives you room for the device yoke and conductors when the box is crowded.
2) Do I order the single-gang or two-gang Centaur raised cover?
Match it to the device count in the box. The Centaur raised cover comes in single-gang and two-gang, both on a 4x4 square body with the same 1/2 inch raise. One switch or receptacle takes the single-gang; two devices side by side in the same 4x4 box take the two-gang.
3) Why use a 1/2 inch raised cover instead of a flat box cover?
A flat cover closes the box; a raised cover carries the device and brings it forward. The 1/2 inch raise on the Centaur plate is what you use when the finished wall surface sits proud of the box, or when the device and wiring need extra depth inside. If the box is flush with the finish and you only need to close it, a flat cover is the simpler part.
4) Can a plastic box cover be used outdoors?
The Centaur cover is non-metallic, which gives it corrosion resistance, and it is rated by the maker for indoor and light-duty outdoor use. Light-duty is the operative phrase: for a wet-location or exposed exterior device you want a purpose-built weatherproof in-use cover instead.
5) Is the Centaur plastic cover plate sold individually or in a box?
These ship in packs of 50, which is why they are usually bought by electrical contractors and MRO stockrooms doing a run of openings rather than a one-off repair. Both the single-gang and two-gang versions are packed the same way.
6) Will a plastic raised cover work for low-voltage as well as line-voltage devices?
Yes. The Centaur raised plate is used for both low-voltage and standard electrical installs, and the 1/2 inch raise is helpful on low-voltage work where jacks and their cable bend radius eat up depth in a 4x4 box.
7) Does a plastic cover give me the same impact resistance as a steel raised cover?
The Centaur plate is a durable non-metallic plate with impact durability and no corrosion path, which is why it gets specified in damp or chemically aggressive indoor spaces where a steel raised cover would rust. For high-abuse areas taking cart or equipment strikes, a steel raised cover is still the tougher choice.
