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


Step # 1 Make sure that that circuit is on a GFI. If not likely
adding an outlet like that (which I believe are not available in GFI) would
be a code violation .

why would that be a code violation?
