Abstract:
An electrical cover plate assembly has a subplate, a cover plate, and a fastener. The subplate has a first locating feature and a tab, and is sized to be mounted to an electrical device via attachment points associated with the electrical device. The cover plate is sized to extend over the subplate, and forms a second locating feature positioned to cooperate with the first locating feature to locate the cover plate relative to the subplate. The cover plate defines a threaded aperture extending through a peripheral rim of the cover plate and positioned to be aligned with the tab. A threaded fastener cooperates with the threaded aperture and engages the cover plate and the tab of the subplate to fasten the cover plate to the subplate.

Claim (Index 18):
An electrical cover plate assembly comprising:\n a subplate with a first locating feature and a tab, the subplate sized to be mounted to an electrical device via attachment points associated with the electrical device; a cover plate sized to extend over the subplate, the cover plate forming a second locating feature positioned to cooperate with the first locating feature to locate the cover plate relative to the subplate, the cover plate defining a threaded aperture extending through a peripheral rim of the cover plate and positioned to be aligned with the tab; and a threaded fastener to cooperate with the threaded aperture and engage the cover plate and the tab of the subplate to fasten the cover plate to the subplate, wherein at least one of the first locating feature, the second locating feature, the tab, and the fastener is angled such that a compression force applied from the fastener to the tab biases the cover plate toward the subplate.
