Pass & Seymour SS26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pass & Seymour SS26 stainless plate fit a standard decorator rocker switch or GFCI receptacle?
Yes. The SS26 series is punched for decorator (rectangular) openings, which is the prep used by rocker switches, decorator dimmers and self-contained GFCI receptacles. It will not fit a toggle switch or a duplex receptacle, since those need toggle or duplex openings instead. Gang sizes run 1-gang (SS26), 2-gang (SS262), 3-gang (SS263) and 4-gang (SS264), so match the plate to the number of devices in the box.
2) Is a stainless steel wall plate worth it over a painted steel plate in a commercial kitchen or dairy?
In a washdown or corrosive area, yes. The Pass & Seymour SS plates are Type 302/304 stainless with 18% chromium and 8% nickel, which is what gives them corrosion resistance in food processing plants, dairies and chemical facilities. A painted or cold rolled steel plate such as the Mulberry 86401 (8640 Series steel, white) is a reasonable choice for dry office and corridor walls, but the coating is the only thing standing between the steel and moisture. Where the wall gets sprayed down or sees chemical vapor, the stainless plate is the one that lasts.
3) Are these stainless plates UL listed for a commercial or institutional job?
The Pass & Seymour 302/304 stainless decorator plates are cULus Listed, which covers both the US and Canadian listings that a commercial or institutional inspector will look for. They are also made in the United States, which matters on jobs with domestic sourcing requirements.
4) I need a 2-gang plate for a mix of a toggle switch and a receptacle, not two decorator devices. What should I use instead of the SS262?
The Pass & Seymour SS262 is a 2-gang plate with decorator openings, so it fits two decorator-style devices and will not accept a toggle switch. For a mixed 2-gang opening, look at the Mulberry 76432 in the 764 Series or the Mulberry 76532 in the 765 Series, both cold rolled steel 2-gang combination wallplates in white. Combination plates are cut for two different device styles in one plate. Confirm which combination each series is punched for against the devices already in the box before ordering.
5) What is the difference between the Pass & Seymour SS262 stainless steel plate and the Mulberry 86401 steel wallplate?
Both are metal wallplates, but they differ in material and finish. The Pass & Seymour SS26 series is Type 302/304 stainless steel with 18% chromium and 8% nickel and a brushed finish, which is why it is specified for food processing plants, dairies, and chemical facilities where corrosive atmospheres are a concern. The Mulberry 86401 is a steel 1-gang wallplate in white, from the 8640 Series. If the room is being finished to match white devices and trim, the white steel plate suits it; if the concern is washdown or corrosive exposure, the brushed stainless construction is the one built for it. Note also that the Pass & Seymour plate uses a decorator opening, while the 86401 is a 1-gang plate in the Mulberry 8640 Series.
6) What size is the 2-gang Pass & Seymour SS262 stainless wall plate?
The SS262 measures 4.5 x 4.56 in overall with a 0.2 in depth, and the steel is 0.032 in nominal thickness. That footprint covers a standard 2-gang device box with the usual margin, and the shallow depth means it sits flat without standing off the wall.
7) Do stainless decorator wall plates come with mounting screws?
They ship with finish-matching screws, plus a protective film over the face that stays on through shipping and installation. Peel the film after the plate is mounted and the brushed face comes out unmarked. No other hardware is needed beyond what is already on the device yokes.
8) Will the brushed stainless finish match across plates if I standardize a whole building on them?
The finish is brushed on every gang size, 1 through 4, and the screws are supplied to match, so a facility standardized on the SS26 family reads consistently from a single-switch plate to a four-gang bank. The brushed texture also hides fingerprints better than a polished face in high-touch corridors.
9) Can I use the Pass & Seymour SS26 stainless plate over a data or voice jack?
No. The SS26 series is punched with decorator openings sized for decorator wiring devices, and a blank decorator opening will not terminate or hold a modular jack. For a voice or data drop, the Eaton 35324W is a wallplate with a 4-conductor data/voice modular jack of Type 625B4 built into it. If you are standardizing stainless plates through a facility and also need comms outlets, the Pass & Seymour stainless can be custom punched with over 300 opening styles, so ask for the opening style that matches the jack you are using.
10) Is there a Bryant equivalent to the 1-gang Pass & Seymour SS26 stainless plate?
Bryant's closest single-gang options are the NP26W in the HWS Series and the P8 Series 1-gang duplex wallplate. The Bryant P8 is punched for a duplex receptacle rather than a decorator device, so it is not a drop-in for a decorator opening. The Pass & Seymour SS26 is the 1-gang member of a Type 302/304 stainless steel decorator family that also runs 2-gang (SS262), 3-gang (SS263), and 4-gang (SS264), so if you are ganging up across a facility the stainless family keeps the finish consistent across all four sizes.
11) My gas burner switch needs an identified plate. Does the stainless SS26 work for that?
The Pass & Seymour SS26 stainless plate ships plain with a brushed finish, though it can be silk-screened or engraved if you need it marked. If you want a factory-identified plate off the shelf, the Mulberry 41020 in the 4102 Series is a red 1-gang toggle switch plate marked for gas burner service. Note the Mulberry is a toggle opening, not a decorator opening, so match it to the switch style in the box.
12) What plate should I use if the devices in the wall are M-size rather than standard decorator?
The Pass & Seymour SS26 stainless family is cut for standard decorator openings in 1 through 4 gang, so it will not cover an M-size device correctly. For that, Bryant's PJ Series is a wallplate made for M-size wiring devices. Verify the device size stamped on the yoke before you order either plate, since decorator and M-size openings are not interchangeable.
13) Will a stainless steel wall plate cause problems near MRI or other magnetically sensitive equipment?
Type 302/304 stainless is non-magnetic, so these plates do not introduce magnetic interference concerns in sensitive rooms. That is one of the reasons they get specified in healthcare and laboratory spaces rather than a plated carbon steel plate.
14) Can I get a stainless plate engraved or punched for a non-standard device layout?
Yes. These 302/304 stainless plates can be silk-screened, engraved, or custom punched, with over 300 opening styles available for combinations the standard decorator punch does not cover. Useful when you need labeled circuits in a plant or a mixed opening a catalog plate does not offer.
