Leviton Mfg Co 070-05801-000 Commercial Single Outlet

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO 070-05801-000 is a commercial specification grade single outlet designed for demanding electrical installations where durability and conductivity are critical. Rated at 125 volts, this brown outlet features a shallow-depth housing that maximizes wiring room inside standard electrical boxes. Large-head terminal screws accept up to No. 10 copper wire, and double-wire power contacts deliver strong conductivity along with reliable plug retention. Licensed electricians and commercial electrical contractors are the typical installers for this type of device.

This outlet is suited for commercial and light industrial applications where specification grade components are required. The shallow design makes it practical for retrofit work in older boxes with limited depth. Break-off fins allow for 2-circuit conversion, adding flexibility in multi-circuit wiring scenarios. Captive mounting screws speed up installation and reduce the chance of dropped hardware during rough-in or finish work. The unit is sold in a package of 10, making it efficient for panel board rough-ins and multi-room commercial projects.
