Cutting a wall plate involves creating a hole in a wall plate, which is a metal or plastic plate that covers an electrical outlet or switch. Wall plates are typically cut to accommodate electrical cords or wires that need to pass through the wall.
Cutting a wall plate is a relatively simple task that can be completed with a few basic tools. First, you will need to gather your materials. You will need a wall plate, a utility knife, a ruler or measuring tape, and a pencil.
