Leviton M5362-I Duplex Receptacle Nema 5-20R 20A 125V

Product Description

The LEVITON M5362-I is an industrial-grade straight blade duplex receptacle rated for 20 amps at 125 volts AC, configured to NEMA 5-20R. Built with a thermoplastic body that resists impact, it is designed for demanding commercial and industrial wiring installations where a reliable, flush-mount outlet is required. The self-grounding feature simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate grounding clip when paired with a metal yoke and grounded box. This receptacle is rated for single-phase, 2-pole, 3-wire circuits and is finished in ivory. Licensed electricians install this device as part of branch-circuit rough-in and device-trim work.

The M5362-I is suited for commercial offices, industrial facilities, institutional buildings, and other applications where 20-amp branch circuits are required. Its flush-mount, back-wired configuration fits standard single-gang and multi-gang electrical boxes. The NEMA 5-20R configuration accepts both 15-amp and 20-amp straight blade plugs, making it compatible with a wide range of equipment loads on 20-amp circuits. The ivory finish is a common specification in commercial and institutional interiors.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the branch circuit at the panel and verify absence of voltage before beginning device installation or replacement. Back-wiring terminations should be made per the wire gauge markings on the device body. Flush-mount the receptacle into a grounded metal or plastic electrical box sized appropriately for the conductor fill.
