If I have a 2-gang box that I want to use as a 1-gang box, is there a plate
that I can put on it to make it such that the 1-gang device is centered in
the box?

Please reply in this forum.

TIA

The answer could be yes and it could be no.

I know of no adaptor that changes an plastic box over to single gang. There
are double gang trim plates with only one device (off center of course). If
you have a metal box ( 4 square X some depth) then you in like flint.

Thanks for your reply. However, not everyone in the world has the luxury of
a HD or Lowes in their hometown.

Yeah, that attitude/response isn't real helpful, is it? Same thing
here...

Answer is, they do make such an adaptor so if you do have an electrical
supply you should be able to get one locally.
