I have a standard light switch in my bathroon I'd like to replace.
The new swich I bought is a switch and an outlet all in one, switch on
top half outlet on bottom half..

Can someone please explain how to hook this up.

Current I have black/black in and out of the old switch and the green/
bare wire. The white wire it capped off in the back not connected to
anything.

Thanks for your assitance,
Felix

With a voltage detector, determine which of the black wires is hot. Attach
that to pigtails going to the two brass screws (if the switch and outlet
are connected already, you can just attach the hot to a brass screw; no
pigtail necessary). Attach the other black wire to the white screw on the
switch. The switch is set.
Attach the white wire to the white screw on the outlet. Where-ever the
other end of the white wire is, presumably at a light, attach it to the
other white wires. You should be good to go on the outlet.
If you don't follow me, you had better hire an electrician.
