The Single Wall Outlet is wired in place of a standard duplex receptacle. This device allows remote ON/OFF control of loads connected to the bottom outlet (the other outlet remains powered at all times). This Outlet integrates with other Nortek Security and Control Z-Wave enabled products, and can also act as a wireless repeater to ensure that commands intended for another device in the network are received (useful when a device would otherwise be out of radio range).

2008 National Electric Code Compliance: The 2008 NEC requires that all new installations of single and multi-family homes install tamper-resistant outlets. The WO15Z-1 is fully compliant with this code.
