I have a room where the electrical contractor installed 3.5" round flush mounted boxes. I am going to be installing a single duplex 15 amp outlet into each one of them. The problem that I have is that I cannot seem to find a cover, either round or square to fit these odd boxes other than plain metal ones. Since this room is being finished, I would like to find something in light almond or similar to match the other devices. Any help on where I can find such covers is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Dan

I've been in a home for the past year that was built in the 1960s. There's been a number of electrical things that have happened that I'm wondering if they weren't just coincidences: 1) 1200 watt Microwave stopped working - by all looks it functioned fine but food never warmed up. No errors or anything, just no actual microwaving happening. 2) Clock on the stove resets. I know it's on the same circuit as the exhaust fan right above it (that the microwave is also on). This is the only A/C-powered clock in the house, so I can't tell if power in the whole house went out or not {we don't leave stuff on when gone or sleeping}. 3) 3 month old dehumidifier stopped working - the error code pointed towards checking voltage and making sure it was within operating temperature(which it was). 4) A lot of the CFL lights have had to be replaced, in various rooms. Don't know when they were first installed. I haven't had to replace any that I myself replaced. However, a lot of them "whine" and make a high pitch sound. 5) Some CFL lights come on before others even on the same circuit. No dimmers. Haven't tried using the same bulbs to see if it's just different bulbs. 6) LED on one of the surge protectors blinks. Not sure if this means something or if the LED is just bad - it's a cheap, nothing special surge protector. 7) Lights noticeably dim when the fridge comes on, the dryer or washing machine comes on, sump pump, and of course when the A/C comes on. I know those draw more current but my panel is 100amp and aside from the A/C, they can't be drawing more than 15-20 amps {breakers}. So, am I onto something or am I just getting used to how things work being a new homeowner and all? Is there any thing I can do to maybe monitor or test things myself, just to establish if I need to bring a pro in to get it checked out? Thank you
