Would this outlet fit in a recessed box? Like the Arlington DVFR1W-1 or similar?

It should. I am not familiar with that particular box, but by the looks of it you should be able to use it. The Leviton requires a square trim plate, so as long as the recessed box is capable of accommodating that, it should work.

The opening (I just measured) is 2 7/8 wide, 5 1/4 high and 2 1/2 deep at the deepest point, so I guess the answer is definitely no. This is a great box for installing a standard outlet outdoors on a wall, but it looks like you need something bigger.

It will not. The enclosed is wider than it is tall. It would only mount on the side if the outlet is mounted sideways. Hope this helps.

Yes. Standard one for this type of outlet. Any GFI rectangular style would fit if you want to change it out.

I bought two of these but could not install due to their size. These will not fit in a standard outlet box.

You will need an oversized electrical box it will not fit in a standard box

You have a couple of questions here- let me attempt to answer the first. Don't believe the design would allow for you to mount directly over an electrical outlet since it is designed to fit flush to the wall. Understand why you want to hide the wires. In lieu of recessed outlet you might consider a spacer board (cut to the size of the mount and around your outlets) to give you a solid mount and a way to connect to outlets. Good luck!

I installed mine in a standard double switch box without any problem. I had to get a new plate cover simply because I went from 2-toggle to 1-toggle/1-decora. I agree the boxes are not very deep when you factor in all the wires and the depth of the new switch. It felt like I had to jam a lot of stuff into a small space but it worked out fine in the end. I hope that answers your question.

Mine measures 0.31". And as a side issue, the electrical box supplied with this outlet is a bit short. It is best for cable entry to at the rear to avoid cable entry impeding the closing of the outlet cover.

Since it is a recessed receptacle the recommended Box is 3.5" deep, but it is a single gang. The distance between the holes on the plate of single receptacle is the same as a standard single SWITCH cover I am guessing around 2 5/16th".http://www.hubbell-raco.com/images/catalog/pdfs/A75-90.pdf Raco PDF file check page 5.

Its bigger than an inch, I have a pretty big plug in there and it fits fine. From looking at it, on each side of the outlet face itself, the interior has room for about the length of half the outlet on each side.

No problems with side to side or top to bottom fit at all. The ONLY place you may have a bit of trouble is how far OUT of the box it MAY want to protrude. This device is DEEP. Use the deepest box possible if it's a new installation. I recommend "pig-tailing" all connections so that the hard wiring coming into the box can be placed at the absolute rearmost of the box . You'll have more "play" and not have to worry about wire nuts possibly coming loose. (Always twist together first before wire nuts are installed. Of course, if you are using WAGO connectors, it doesn't apply)

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

the cup that covers the electrical boxes I have recessed are approx. 4 3/4inches across and my recessed cans aka high hats are 6in across so unless the company make a wider one then no.Hope this answers your ques. They do look great so look into it.

Sorry I can't answer about the size of the in/outlet, but I can say this it was the exact fit replacement for the one I removed.

It was a tight fit, but I was able to insert a 3 pronged plug into the second wall outlet. A 2 pronged plug should fit nicely.

It will fit in a standard, but a deep box is better. The holes are the standard distance as in a duplex receptacle.
