English term (edited):
1-gang
Selected
enkelvoudig
Mijn andere antwoord (invoer) is fout: 1-gang is enkelvoudig, 2-gang is dubbel, dus een 1-gang box is een enkelvoudige doos. Zie de wiki voor gang
Example sentence:
A 1-gang box hosts a single component such as a switch or receptacle, a 2-gang box hosts two components side-by-side, and so on.
