There is disclosed a wall plate for a wiring device. The wall plate has a single opening for receiving one or a gang of two or more wiring devices within the single opening. The wall plate has along its vertical axis, a surface of positive first differential and zero second differential, comprised of a combination of splines drawn between points of varying distance from a datum plane. The surface has zero second differential when the rate of height increase of individual splines is constant. The wall plate, when composed of non-conducting material, has a conductive coating on its front surface, on its back surface or on both its front and back surfaces. When the wiring device is a switch, the surface of the switch face follows that of the wall plate. When the wiring device is a receptacle, the surface along the receptacle face is flat in one plane to allow for the proper seating of an inserted plug.

Cette invention concerne une plaque murale pour dispositif de câblage. La plaque murale comporte une seule ouverture dans laquelle un ou plusieurs dispositifs de câblage peuvent être introduits. La plaque murale comprend, le long de son axe vertical, une surface de première différentielle positive et de seconde différentielle nulle composée d'une combinaison de cannelures s'étendant entre des points de distance variable depuis un plan de référence. La surface présente une seconde différentielle nulle lorsque que le taux d'augmentation de la hauteur de cannelures individuelles est constant. La plaque murale, lorsqu'elle est composée d'un matériau non conducteur, comporte un revêtement conducteur appliqué sur sa surface avant, sur sa surface arrière ou à la fois sur ses surfaces avant et arrière. Lorsque le dispositif de câblage est un interrupteur, la surface du côté de l'interrupteur épouse celle de la plaque murale. Lorsque le dispositif de câblage est un réceptacle, la surface le long du côté du réceptacle est plate dans un plan, ce qui garantit un bon positionnement d'une fiche insérée.
