Cooper Wiring Devices AH5362B Duplex Receptacle 20A 125V

Product Description

The COOPER WIRING DEVICES AH5362B is a straight blade duplex receptacle rated at 20 amps and 125 volts AC, configured to the NEMA 5-20R standard. Built for industrial-grade applications, it features a self-grounding design that simplifies installation and reduces the risk of improper ground connections. The nylon body incorporates antimicrobial, chemical-resistant, and impact-resistant properties, making it well suited to demanding environments. Electricians and maintenance technicians install this receptacle in commercial and industrial settings where a reliable 20-amp, single-phase outlet is required. It accepts both standard 15-amp and 20-amp straight blade plugs.

The AH5362B is intended for flush mount installation in standard wall boxes and electrical enclosures. Its brown finish is commonly specified in light manufacturing, food service, and industrial facilities where receptacle color coding by circuit type is standard practice. Back and side wiring options allow flexibility during rough-in and retrofit work. The unit ships individually and is suitable for single-outlet replacement or new-construction branch circuit termination work on 20-amp general-purpose circuits.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always de-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify absence of voltage with a meter before beginning work. The self-grounding feature requires proper contact with a grounded metal device box to function as intended. Do not install on circuits exceeding 20 amps or 125 volts AC.
