Leviton 80401-N – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What are the Leviton 8040 Series wallplate part numbers for 1-gang and 2-gang?
Two gang counts are made in the Brown nylon 8040 Series: order 80401-N for the 1-gang plate and 80409-N for the 2-gang. Both are device-mount plates in the same Brown thermoplastic nylon, so a job using both sizes keeps one consistent color and material.
2) What does device-mount mean on a wallplate, and will it screw to the box instead?
A device-mount plate screws into the mounting ears of the wiring device itself, the switch or receptacle, not into the box. The 8040 Series is built that way, so the device has to be set plumb and flush in the box for the plate to sit flat. If you are covering an opening with no device in it, a blank box cover is what you want instead.
3) Will a Leviton 8040 Brown nylon plate fit standard switches and receptacles already in my building?
It is sized to standard device openings for toggle switches and receptacles, which is the same opening pattern used across standard wiring devices. Match the gang count to the number of devices in the box: 1-gang for a single device, 2-gang for two side by side.
4) I have three switches ganged in one box. Will the 8040 cover that?
No. Brown 8040 nylon plates are made in 1-gang (80401-N) and 2-gang (80409-N) only, so a three-device box needs a 3-gang plate. Ordering the 2-gang for a three-gang opening leaves the third device exposed.
5) Is nylon or a metal wallplate the better choice for a high traffic corridor?
Nylon is the right call for most interior trim-out work: it is molded rigid, resists cracking and discoloration, and does not need to be bonded the way a metal plate does. Where plates get struck by carts or equipment, or where the spec calls for metal, a stainless plate is the usual substitute. For apartment turns, offices and standard commercial device openings, the nylon 8040 handles it.
6) Can I use the Brown 8040 plate to replace an older brown plate without repainting the wall?
Yes. The Brown finish is held consistent across the 8040 Series, so a replacement plate matches other Brown plates on the same job rather than reading as a patch. That consistency is the reason property teams standardize on one color and material across a building.
7) Do Leviton 8040 wallplates come with mounting screws?
The 8040 Series is a device-mount cover plate, and device-mount plates are supplied with the plate screws that thread into the device ears. You do not need box screws or a separate mounting strap for it.
