Pray you don't get a customer that wants these

Bocci minimalist receptacles. I don't even know if they are code compliant because you can't get at the wiring in the box.

Neat, but as you stated.

 

[jmellc]

Looks like junk to me. I see a lot going wrong with them.

I can't see how these would ever be Code compliant. We all know you can't bury a splice behind sheet-rock and that's basically what they are doing. If the receptacle goes bad (and it will) and you have to replace it you'll have to cut the sheet-rock out to get to it. Just hope this doesn't go viral and end up in home decorators' computers. They think all this crap is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

I installed them once in a kitchen.
You have to make sure that the cabinet style is wide enough to accept a switch box behind it.
They look sharp after the install is complete.
I'm not a fan of them.
I rather use the sill lite receptacle.
The cabinet installer said HE installs them quite often. He never has used a box.

Yeah, okaaaaaaay...

They don't appear to be tamperproof.

They have TR models

Near the end of the video you can see how you get access to the box. Look compliant to me. The last I looked they were incredibly expensive but that was years ago.

 

[Dennis Alwon]

Haha

 

[Knuckle Dragger]

I had left two boxes behind just in case I I couldn't get there while the base cabinets were being assembled. I told him that he had to modify the sides of the joining base cabinets to fit the box in properly . (He seemed like a decent professional tradesman that I could trust.)
I showed up just after he installed the cabinet. He had sliced both sides of the plastic switch box off to fit it in behind the cabinet stile and installed it.
Needless to say he got a good lecture from me.
Shame on me too. Lesson learned on my part as well.

Take note of what this page says.

This Certificate of Compliance does not provide authorization to apply the UL Mark. Only the UL Follow-Up Services Procedure provides authorization to apply the UL Mark.

Does that mean you will have to pay for a field visit from a NRTL?

Seems they are saying we don't actually have a UL (or any NRTL) listing.

I think the follow up services procedure is where UL visits the factory that makes them.

Edit: yup

Follow-Up Services

Safety certification doesn’t end with a Mark. These services represent our ongoing commitment to a safer products, and in turn, a safer world.

What? You can pull 3 or 4 cables worth of conductors, wire nuts with grounds and get at the ground bond screw through a 1-1/2" hole???

Perhaps you should configure your cable runs to avoid that...lol

 

[Amps]

Yeah, okaaaaaaay...

There you go. No box, not violating code. lol.

 

[VirutalElectrician]

How durable are these things with daily use? Looks like they are only held in by some sort of plastic clips. Push too hard, you'll push the outlet right into the hole? Is the plastic frame strong enough so that repeated removal/insertion doesn't stress the plaster over it and crack it?
