Hubbell Wiring Device-kellems 5252AB Duplex Receptacle 15A

Product Description

The HUBBELL WIRING DEVICE-KELLEMS 5252AB is a straight blade duplex receptacle rated at 15 amps and 125 volts AC, configured to the NEMA 5-15R standard. Built to specification grade, it is designed for flush-mount installation in standard electrical boxes. The self-grounding feature simplifies installation by establishing a ground path through the mounting screws and yoke, eliminating the need for a separate pigtail ground wire. The nylon body provides durability and resistance to impact. This receptacle accepts back-wired and side-wired connections, giving electricians flexibility during rough-in and finish work.

This receptacle is suited for commercial and residential electrical installations where specification-grade performance is required. It is a single-phase, 2-pole, 3-wire device intended for standard 15-amp branch circuits. The brown color makes it appropriate for installations where a neutral or earth-tone finish device is specified. Licensed electricians install this device as part of new construction, renovation, or device replacement work on 120-volt branch circuits.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the branch circuit at the panel before beginning any wiring work. Verify proper grounding continuity after installation before restoring power. Self-grounding function depends on solid metal-to-metal contact between the device yoke and a grounded metal box.
