Pass & Seymour TP2-BK – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Pass & Seymour TP2BK cover a wall opening that's been cut oversize or has damaged drywall around it?
Usually, yes. The TP series runs an extra 3/16 inch in both width and height versus a standard-size plate, so it hides ragged cuts and chipped drywall edges a standard plate leaves showing. Overall it measures 4.75 in wide by 4.688 in high by 0.25 in deep. If the opening is badly oversized, step up to a true jumbo plate instead, such as the Mulberry 86871 jumbo oversize toggle plate (that one is 1-gang painted steel).
2) Does the TP2BK fit two standard toggle switches side by side?
It does. The TP2BK is a 2-gang plate with two toggle switch openings, sized for standard double toggle switch installations. It will not cover decorator/rocker style devices or receptacles, only toggle switches.
3) Is a nylon wall plate tough enough for a hospital corridor or industrial plant, or should I specify metal?
Nylon of this type holds up well. The TradeMaster TP plate is molded of rugged, self-extinguishing nylon at a .070 inch nominal thickness, and Pass & Seymour positions it for hospital, industrial, institutional and other high-abuse applications where thinner plastic plates fail. It's also cULus Listed. Where a spec calls for metal outright, the comparable options are steel: the Mulberry 97071 in 430 stainless steel or the Mulberry 87071 commercial grade cold rolled steel, both 1-gang.
4) What covers a single toggle switch instead of the Pass & Seymour TP2BK?
The Pass & Seymour TP2BK is configured as 2-gang with 2 toggle switch openings, so it will not cover a single-switch box. For a one-switch opening, the Mulberry 87071 is a commercial grade cold rolled steel 1-gang toggle wallplate, the Mulberry 97071 is a 1-gang toggle wallplate in 430 stainless steel from the 9707 Series, and the Cantex 5133330 is a PVC single toggle switch wallplate. Match the plate gang count to the number of switches in the device box.
5) Which toggle plate should I use when the wall opening is cut oversize?
The Pass & Seymour TP2BK is a TP-series plate measuring 4.75 inches wide by 4.688 inches high, which carries an extra 3/16 inch of width and height over standard size plates to hide rough openings. Where a single-switch opening is cut too large, the Mulberry 86871 is a jumbo oversize toggle switch wallplate in painted steel white from the 8687 Series. Choose by gang count first: the TP2BK covers two toggles, the 86871 covers one.
6) I'm standardizing wall plates across a building. What other colors does the TradeMaster TP line come in?
Besides black, the TradeMaster line is offered in Ivory, White, Brown, Gray, Blue, Orange, Red and Light Almond. That makes color-coding practical, for example red plates on emergency-circuit switches and a neutral color everywhere else, while keeping the same TP-series nylon body throughout.
7) Does the Pass & Seymour TP2BK carry a UL listing for use in a hospital or institutional spec?
The plate is cULus Listed, which covers both the US and Canadian listings and is what most institutional and healthcare specs ask for on a wiring device cover. It's also made in the United States, which matters if your project carries domestic-origin requirements.
8) Is the Mulberry 41020 gas burner plate a substitute for a standard toggle wall plate?
No. The Mulberry 41020 is a 1-gang toggle switch plate in the 4102 Series identified as gas burner red, which is used to flag a specific switch function rather than as a general purpose cover. The Pass & Seymour TP2BK is a black 2-gang plate with two toggle openings for ordinary double toggle switch coverage. If you want a colored plate for general use, the TradeMaster line is also offered in ivory, white, brown, gray, blue, orange, red, and light almond.
9) For a hospital or industrial corridor, how does the TP2BK compare with a PVC switch plate?
The Pass & Seymour TP2BK is molded of self-extinguishing nylon at a nominal .070 inch thickness and is cULus listed, which is why it is specified for hospital, industrial, and institutional high-abuse locations. The Cantex 5133330 is a PVC single toggle switch wallplate in the PVC series and covers one switch. For a two-switch box in a high-traffic area, the nylon TP2BK is the plate that matches that opening.
10) Is the TP2BK black plate glossy or flat? I need it to disappear on a dark wall.
Matte black. The finish is low-glare, so it doesn't throw reflections under corridor or high-bay lighting the way a gloss plate does.
11) Does the TP2BK wall plate come with mounting screws?
Screws aren't listed as part of the TP2BK. Plan to use the 6-32 machine screws that come with the switches themselves, which is standard practice on toggle plate installs; if you want the screw heads to disappear, order matching black screws separately.
12) Will a .070 inch nylon plate sit flat if the switches are mounted slightly proud of the drywall?
Some tolerance, but not much. At .070 inch nominal thickness the nylon is rigid rather than flexible, and the plate's overall depth is 0.25 in, so it will bridge a small high spot but won't flex to follow an out-of-plane device. If a device is sitting proud, shim or reset the strap instead of forcing the plate, which is how plastic plates crack at the screw hole.
