Eaton PJ8GY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Eaton PJ8GY wallplate cover an oversized or standard single-gang box opening?
The PJ8GY is a mid-size single-gang plate. It runs larger than a standard plate but smaller than a jumbo, so it covers the device box opening and a bit of rough drywall edge without the oversized look. If the drywall cut around your box is badly torn out, a jumbo plate is the better call.
2) Does the PJ8GY fit a decorator or rocker-style receptacle?
No. The PJ8GY has a duplex receptacle cutout, which is the two round-top openings for a standard duplex outlet. A decorator or rocker device needs a single rectangular opening, so this plate will not cover it.
3) What is the closest equivalent to the Eaton PJ8GY mid-size duplex wallplate from another brand?
The Bryant PJ Series M-Size wallplate for wiring devices is the nearest match in format - like the Eaton PJ8GY, it is a mid-size plate for wiring devices rather than a standard or oversized plate. The PJ8GY is a single-gang duplex receptacle plate molded in nylon in gray. Confirm the Bryant PJ plate is ordered in the duplex receptacle opening and the color you need, since the PJ family covers several device openings.
4) Is the Pass and Seymour SPJ plate a substitute for the Eaton PJ8GY?
No, despite the similar PJ in the name. The SPJ Series is a junior-jumbo thermoset plate with a toggle switch opening, so it will not fit over a duplex receptacle. The Eaton PJ8GY is a nylon mid-size plate with a duplex receptacle cutout. Match the cutout to the device, not the series letters.
5) I need a standard-size single-gang duplex plate instead of a mid-size one. What should I use?
The Bryant P8 Series 1-gang duplex wallplate is the standard-size alternative to the mid-size Eaton PJ8GY. Both cover a single-gang box with a duplex receptacle opening; the PJ8GY uses a mid-size profile that extends slightly further past the box opening, which is useful when drywall cuts are ragged. If your walls are clean and you want the tighter trim line, the P8 Series is the one to specify.
6) The opening has a receptacle and a switch in one two-gang box. Will the Eaton PJ8GY work?
No. The PJ8GY is a single-gang plate with one duplex receptacle cutout only. For a two-gang box mixing device types, use a combination plate such as the Pass and Seymour TP126-LA Trademaster two-gang combination nylon plate, which is nylon like the PJ8GY, or the Cooper Wiring Devices 2138WBOX 21 Series thermoset combination plate in white.
7) Is the Eaton PJ8GY plate gray all the way through or painted?
It's molded nylon in gray, so the color goes through the material rather than sitting on the surface as paint. That matters on high-traffic corridors and multi-family turns, where a scuff on a painted plate shows and a molded one generally does not.
8) Do mounting screws come with the Eaton PJ8GY wallplate?
The PJ8GY mounts over the receptacle with standard wallplate mounting screws through the device's plate screw holes. Expect to use the 6-32 screws that come with the receptacle itself if none are supplied with the plate.
9) What should I use instead of the PJ8GY if I need a metal wallplate?
The PJ8GY is nylon, which is fine for offices, apartments and light industrial work but flexes. For a steel plate, ZenSupply carries Mulberry: the 76103 Princess-size 3-gang 3-duplex plate and the 764 Series 76432 cold rolled steel 2-gang combination plate are steel options, though both are multi-gang rather than single-gang duplex.
10) What should I order for a three-gang box with three duplex receptacles?
The Eaton PJ8GY covers a single-gang box only. For three duplex receptacles in one box, the Mulberry 76103 is a Princess size three-gang plate with three duplex receptacle openings in white. Note that the 76103 is steel rather than the nylon used on the PJ8GY, so the finish and feel will differ if you are mixing them on the same wall.
11) What do I use to cover an unused single-gang box where the Eaton PJ8GY would leave an opening?
Use a blank plate. The Pass and Seymour WPB Series blank wallplate in brushed aluminum covers a box with no device behind it. The Eaton PJ8GY has a duplex receptacle cutout and is intended for a box with a live duplex device, so it is not the right cover for an abandoned or future-use box.
12) We need a metal wallplate instead of nylon for a two-gang combination opening. What are the options?
The Eaton PJ8GY is molded nylon and single-gang. For a metal two-gang combination plate, the Mulberry 76432 of the 764 Series and the Mulberry 76532 of the 765 Series are both cold rolled steel two-gang combination plates in white. Confirm which series matches the device openings in your box before ordering, as the two series differ in cutout arrangement.
13) Can I standardize an entire building on the Eaton PJ8GY?
For single-gang duplex outlets, yes. One model number (PJ8GY) covers every standard duplex receptacle on a single-gang box in gray, which keeps the stockroom simple. You'll still need separate plates for switch locations, combination boxes and multi-gang runs, since the PJ8GY is single-gang duplex only.
14) Will a gray wallplate match my existing gray receptacles?
Gray is a standard wiring device color, and the PJ8GY's neutral gray is molded to pair with standard gray devices and trim. Shades can vary slightly between manufacturers, so if the existing devices are another brand, hold one plate up before you order the full count.
15) Is the Bryant NP26W a drop-in replacement for the Eaton PJ8GY?
Both are single-gang plates, but the Bryant NP26W belongs to the HWS Series and is white, while the Eaton PJ8GY is gray nylon with a mid-size duplex receptacle cutout. If you are matching gray devices already on the wall, the color alone rules the NP26W out; verify the device opening as well before treating it as a swap.
16) Is there a nylon two-gang plate that matches the material of the Eaton PJ8GY?
Yes. The Pass and Seymour TP703-LA TradeMaster two-gang nylon wall plate in light almond and the TP126-LA Trademaster two-gang combination nylon plate are both nylon, like the PJ8GY. The PJ8GY is gray and single-gang, so if you are running both on the same job expect a color difference with the light almond TradeMaster.
