If plugged into lower duplex outlet, is upper outlet accessible? Under-sink outlet: switched upper outlet for disposal and APC protected dishwasher.

on the plug I have when its plugged into the lower outlet the top one is still usable for a standard plug, as for protection a dishwasher not sure about that.

A standard 3 prong (grounded) plug will fit the upper outlet fine along with the surge protector in the lower outlet: the upper outlet is not blocked. This of course assumes that the top plug is not oversize, i.e. charger plugs, or come with a super heavy duty cord that does not flex.

Yes, it has the outlet to fit the standard flex pipe over. Do not forget to break out the plug in the outlet BEFORE you install the disposal. That is the critical part in following the directions :-) The WK 9920 can be used with or w/o a dishwasher and as such it has the steel plug that needs to be hit with a punch and hammer to remove it prior to installation. If you don't, the dishwasher will flood onto the floor. Sadly, I know this from experience...

I have my switch plugged into a plug strip and there is room below the single port switch. I would put it on the top outlet then the bottom outlet should be fine.

Hmm, I don't think that would work. We have a small drawer under the drain board portion, but I've never looked under the drawer to see what's going on under there ... but I do know that our dishwasher, which is on the other side, is installed flush to the bottom of the countertop, while the drain board on this sink is below the bottom of the countertop ... but maybe by only an inch or so. I'll look tonight and let you know what I think (if someone else doesn't know the real answer!).

I purchased a cord kit and a air switch, you plug the air switch in to a outlet under the sink first and then plug the disposer plug in to the air switch . Then the air switch has a 1/4" plastic tube and a push button which you can put anywhere, I put my switch button in the style face frame of the sink cabinet just below the counter top, you would need a hole saw about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2" I think its been a while.

No, but it if sits below the countertop, the outlets are hidden. If it sits above for most of the time you can plug in outlet covers.

Yes to the first question. The second -- it won't take up both outlet if you put it in the upper outlet and use a regular plug on the bottom outlet. I like it a lot.

A typical outlet has 2 sockets, one on top of the other. You can use 2 of these, one on top of the other and the control switches are in the right hand side.

Yes. My toaster & the AC share the same above-counter two-prong outlet. Very convenient arrangement in my kitchen!

Yes - our dishwasher drains into it, and it plugs into an outlet on the back wall of our cabinet under the sink. The leaks that both of our units developed were directly across from the inlet from the dishwasher, where the unit housing had cracked. Every time the dishwasher discharged into the unit, it would leak - this happened to two separate, identical units, both of which had to replaced within one year of their installation.

The unit only covers a single outlet if you plug it in the top outlet of two outlets. It has 3-prongs, so you can't plug it upside down in the lower of two outlets.

You might be able to do that, but it won't be safe. Three-pronged appliances need to be grounded for safety reasons (electric shock hazard), but in your setup the appliance will not be grounded. You can get on of these:GE 52149 Handy Switch Grounded Whiteor one of these:TRIPLE PLUG IN CORD SWITCH WITH SAFETY REMINDER LIGHT

Yes, it is attached to unit. Most homes have an electrical 110 outlet under sink where their garbage disposal and or instant hot water unit/water storage tank is located.Hope this answers your question.

Yes, the other outlet is left open for another grounded plug. The prongs on back mirror the slots on the front as far as placement is concerned, although stacking modules isn't advised.

Yes...this sink top switch can control any disposal provided the power cable from the disposal is equipped with a typical grounded wall plug. The controller is an air operated switch that turns on an electrical box that in turn, plugs into a wall outlet. Just plug the power cord into the controller switch box, plug the box into the wall, mount the air control button in a hole on the sink top, and you're good to go.

That is accurate. I had our unit plugged into the bottom outlet in our basement. I was able to use the top outlet without any trouble.

Yes, but why do that, position the plug under the counter, you will be glad you did that if you have to switch out the unit,
