How can I install this on a 2 Gang electrical box (120 v AC) with a light switch on the right gang; what wall plate could I use?

I don't think this would work. The stat housing is 3" wide and protrudes 1-1/4" from the face of the electrical box.

I do not know that it is possible. I would suggest going to the manufacturer's web site and asking them by email. I did this with a question I had about wiring it in parallel with a timer. They answered promptly.

you don't. you install them in seperate one gang boxes, or mount the dehumidistat on one side and switch other side and cut the side of the switch cover off flush with the edge of humidistat cover

You can ignore the "Yes" answers because they don't cover both outlets on a standard wallplate unless you have no imagination. Plug the light into the top outlet and the bottom outlet is available, though you may have to bend down to see what you're doing when plugging something in. Even easier, turn the light upside down and plug into the bottom outlet. Problem solved.

There are low voltage boxes that can be installed fairly easily. Search low voltage mounting brackets or box and you'll find what you need.

Do you want to control your fan and light from more than one location or do you want to put this device in a 2 or 3 gang box? No you cant use this as a 3 way switch. Yes this wil fit in a box with another maestro - If we are talking a bout a two gang or larger box.

Local code should require it to be mounted in a gang box because of high voltage (110). You could use a single gang box for the plug side and leave the other side open.

If you put two switches next to each other you need to break the small metal tabs off on the sides. Once the tabs are broken off you can put the switches close enough to fit with normal wall plates. This information is in the install instructions.

It comes with a wall plate. However, standard decor plates fit. This is important if you have a gang of 2, 3 or 4 switches in the same electrical box.

The wall plate itself connects to a standard outlet box like any other wall plate (AC outlet, cable outlet, etc..). I found a handy one at ACE hardware that you can install from the front (outside) of the wall by just cutting the hole, inserting the box, and tighten down the "molly" like tabs. Run the wires inside the wall and into the box before inserting the outlet box into the wall. I hope that helps. Take a look at "Thomas & Betts #b120r Sg Old Work Box" on Amazon for an example of the outlet box.

Hi Denton...should work, my install is behind a double switch plate with one traditional switch and this timer. This works well with LED lights, it has a battery to assist the switching action because of the small amount out electricity for operation. Others will not work on low voltage lights.Joe

You'll want to put half the lights on each side but it will work fine. You can either feed both sides from one 120 volt 30 amp breaker or feed it with a 15 amp double 240 volt breaker but the lights won't care.

That black plate in the back is designed to fit on a 1-gang electrical box, same as a wall switch cover. It's 4-3/8 L x 2-5/8 W and 1/2 thick. The red cover is just a little bigger.

I installed this in a double electrical box that had one switch for a light and one for a fan. I installed it using the fan switch wiring only and kept the light switch the same using the original double switch plate to cover both. Long way of saying Yes.

A standard switch plate should work. You can buy these at any hardware store, or I'm sure Amazon also has these.

I think this would work. These switches need more than a normal switch, but if you had a standard single-pole switch you should have enough room.HOWEVER - I attempted to install TWO of these switches in a double-gang box - this does not fit. I had to use a triple-gang and leave a space.But I think with a standard switch you would be fine.

The dimmer did not come with a wall plate. I used a relatively cheap one found at home depot. I found that a standard cover for a square light switch worked just fine

you should be able to get chassis box, switch and wire hook up at Radio Shack or similar store. good luckhope your led lights will work on 12vdc, otherwise you have to go the inverter route.

Just like mounting a light switch, pull the electric wire to a single gang box. Most ling voltage electric heater thermostats will mount this way, the gang box is design to have wire nut connects in it.
