It can be easily converted to a simple duplex outlet. Please be sure to use a 20 amp duplex outlet when making the conversion. Check the side of the box when making the purcahse. You will notice that the plug sockets are configured a little differently on a 20 amp. It will still take standard plug in appliances with no problem.
While it is a simple conversion, if you are not sure of yourself, please call a qualified electrician. If you do it yourself, be sure to plug an appliance into the current outlet, turn it on, then turn off the circuit breaker. That way, you will be sure you are turning off the correct breaker.
