Hubbell Wiring Device-kellems BR15BLK Duplex Receptacle

Product Description

The HUBBELL WIRING DEVICE-KELLEMS BR15BLK is a specification-grade straight blade duplex receptacle rated at 15 amps and 125 volts with a NEMA 5-15R configuration. Built with a nylon body and a self-grounding design, it is engineered for flush-mount installation in standard electrical outlet boxes. The duplex layout provides two outlets from a single device, making it a direct-fit replacement or new-construction solution in residential, light commercial, and institutional wiring projects. Licensed electricians install this device as part of branch-circuit rough-in and finish work.

This receptacle is suited for single-phase, 125-volt branch circuits requiring a 15-amp, 2-pole, 3-wire NEMA 5-15R outlet. Its black finish and flush-mount profile fit standard wallplate configurations. The back-and-side wiring method supports both push-in and screw-terminal connections, giving electricians flexibility on the rough-in. Specification grade construction means it meets more stringent durability and cycle-life standards than residential-grade devices, making it appropriate for commercial tenant improvements, office build-outs, and institutional facilities.

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 the branch circuit at the panel and verify zero voltage with a meter before handling the device or existing wiring. The self-grounding feature is only effective when installed in a properly grounded metal outlet box. Torque all screw terminals to the values marked on the device body or listed in the manufacturer documentation.
