There is now a normal electrical outlet in the wall and I want to replace it with the Leviton Switch / Outlet. I have an indoor water feature that does NOT have an on/off switch on the device itself. I must reach behind the water feature and plug it in to turn it on and unplug it to turn it off. For this problem, I was sold the Switch / Outlet from Home Depot and was told the directions for install was in the box. I can't make heads or tails of the directions. I would like to leave the water feature plugged in at all times and to be able to turn the water feature on/off at the combo outlet's switch. I do not need a GFCI. How do I install the Switch / Outlet? I have only a "small" amount of knowledge with electrical; although, I have changed out outlets before and have installed dimmers and ceiling fans on my own. Below is a description and photo of the switch/outlet: Thank you, BeverlyAnn

From what I could see from the on line product guide it looks like you have 4 screws you should have 1 silver screw and 3 brass colored screws , one side will prob. be the silver and a brass colored screw and the other side will be 2 brass colored screws with a piece of metal connecting the two, first thing you should do is break off the metal piece that connects them, next you need a piece of wire to jump out the switch part and outlet part, connect the wire to the brass screw on the side with the silver screw and then connect it to the brass screw on the other side where the plug section is located ( top or bottom) and then you will want to take the wires that you had on the plug usually black and white and put the white on the silver screw and the black on the last brass screw , If you have more then one set of wires in the box you will need to splice them together with a tail coming off it
You e-mail me if you have any Questions

Should be fairly simple, match up wires from old one to new one, cause i do not know how many it only a guess that you need at least 2 hot sides because you want both to work along with a ground wire, by a cheap circuit tester 3 or 4 bucks and then you can check your work to see if its wired correctly.. Ace would be better more knowledgeable and can help

I've never seen one of these, but I'd assume it hooks up just like the outlet, since the switch is built in, all your wiring should be inside the device, so all you should need to do is bring in your power, neutral and ground it just like a normal outlet.
