Leviton 001-3W101-0GY 15A Grounded Plug 2P 3W Gray

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO 001-3W101-0GY is a straight blade, grounded, thermoplastic plug rated at 15 amps for use on tools, appliances, and extension cords. Its clamp-tight hinged design allows fast, straightforward assembly without special tooling. The dimpled body provides a secure hinge grip during installation, and the built-in cord grip adjusts automatically to fit the cable, reducing assembly time in the field. The thermoplastic housing resists moisture and common chemicals, making it suitable for demanding job-site and workshop environments. Electricians and maintenance technicians rely on this plug for quick, reliable cord repairs and replacements.

This plug is intended for residential and light commercial applications where a standard NEMA 5-15 style grounded replacement plug is required. It is configured as 2 pole, 3 wire and accepts 18-2 AWG conductors as well as AWG SJ 16-3 cord sets. Typical use cases include replacement of damaged plugs on power tools, shop equipment, and extension cords. The gray color allows easy visual identification on job sites where cord type sorting is common practice.
