Does this come with a single gang box for the outlet? And if so, is it plastic or metal?

There is no box, in the traditional sense. The frame around the outlet is the box. It is one integrated unit. It is all plastic.

It comes with a single gang plastic box. The box has metal spin out ears to catch the sheetrock . The product works well, I have installed them for a bunch of TV's.

I think it is a standard junction box for a duplex outlet. On the orbit website, they show the box, but don't give exact dimensions. http://www.orbitelectric.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage;=flypage.pbv.v1.tpl&product;_id=5905&category;_id=70&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid;=11

In terms of width and height, yes, it's a single gang Decora. However, the device is much deeper than a regular rocker switch and boxes vary in depth, so you need one that's deep enough for the timer and its wires. I think anything over 2" deep should be ok.

as I recall it came with one...............or at least one end. I know I ended up using a plastic disconnect and I switched to brass ones around the property years ago.

I had no issues with a two wire install. I grounded it locally to the outlet gang box

Just the outlet. I do not recommend this product. Mine behaved very erratically.

All the Duplex Recptacles I've ever seen, If you break off the "Breakable" metal tab between the connector screws, you can wire each outlet separately.

Sorry I don't have one I can measure. But I can say that the mounting plate covers a normal receptacle outlet box. Hope this helps, David

Unsure! I returned this item because the base was too small for my existing outlet. Beware, this item requires quite a bit of assembling. It does not come in one piece.

I fairly certain it is plastic (nylon). When you tape it sounds a little like metal, but when you look closely at the turns in the screw on cover area - it's plastic. BTW we had it installed in a tile on the floor. The outlet met our local regulations.

Absolutely!!!...I actually have two separate single gang boxes mounted between...one for power to tv and power to cable box and one for cable coax connection...works perfect!

It has three settings; outlet 1, outlet 2, then both outlets. Its plastic but seems to work well.

This is a 1 piece unit that plug directly into an outlet. I bought a refurbished unit it works, and looks like new.

A standard double gang box would work fine with this plate. The issue is you usually want to run speaker wire through this plate which means you would need to drill out a hole large enough to fit your wire through the opening in the gang box. In my application I just have a single gang bracket and the plate attaches to that so I can fit the maximum wires through the hole.

only the box, and make sure you donot use the flex duct thats made of plastic, use all aluminum duct throughout (the shiny duct that looks like foil around a spring is actually plastic and not aluminum)

Yes, it is metal-wired. Honestly, it's kind of an unnecessary feature because the bags don't really touch it because of how they are attached. Trust me, you will not find this at Target or Walmart, and I'm speaking from personal experience. I've bought multiple from both and they all fell apart and were made poorly. I didn't want to pay this much for one but it's worth it. I already spent that much on two from Walmart and Target and they are both long gone... This is a good buy; worth every penny. In fact, I will be ordering another one.

Yes it does, it is grounded. And does not need to be screwed into the outlet.
