Leviton R02-E5825-0SW 20A 125V Tamper Resistant Receptacle

Product Description

The Leviton R02-E5825-0SW is a tamper resistant duplex receptacle rated at 20 amps and 125 volts, designed for use in residential and light commercial electrical installations. It features Leviton's Lever Edge design, which allows the device to be installed without touching the screw terminals, reducing installation time and improving safety. The tamper resistant shutters block access to the contact slots unless a standard two- or three-prong plug is inserted, meeting NEC requirements for tamper resistant protection in applicable dwelling unit locations. This receptacle is sold in a package of 10 units and is finished in white.

This receptacle is suited for standard 15-amp branch circuits in residential settings including bedrooms, living rooms, hallways, and kitchens where tamper resistant outlets are required by code. The 20-amp rating makes it compatible with 20-amp circuit wiring, while the form factor fits standard single-gang electrical boxes. Electricians installing these in new construction or renovation projects will find the Lever Edge terminal design particularly useful in high-volume rough-in and trim-out work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always shut off the branch circuit breaker and verify the circuit is de-energized with a non-contact voltage tester before making any wiring connections. Ensure the gang box is properly secured and that the wire gauge matches the circuit rating before connecting the device. Do not exceed the receptacle's 20-amp, 125-volt ratings.
