Leviton R02-EGFW1-0KW Weatherproof Gfci Outlet 15A 125V

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO R02-EGFW1-0KW is a Lever Edge self-test GFCI outlet rated at 15 amps and 125 volts, designed for weatherproof and tamper-resistant installations. It features an integrated self-test function that automatically verifies ground fault protection is active, reducing the need for manual testing during routine inspections. The white finish suits standard residential and light commercial wall plate installations. Licensed electricians install this device in locations where both weather exposure and tamper resistance are required by code, such as outdoor receptacles and wet or damp location boxes.

This GFCI outlet is suited for outdoor, bathroom, kitchen, garage, and crawlspace applications where NEC requirements mandate ground fault protection. Its tamper-resistant shutters block foreign object insertion, meeting child-safety code requirements. The weatherproof rating makes it appropriate for covered and exposed outdoor receptacle locations. Residential and light commercial electrical contractors use this device as a primary GFCI protection point or as a protected downstream outlet in a GFCI circuit.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. Always de-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify zero voltage with a meter before beginning work. The device should be mounted in a weatherproof-rated enclosure appropriate to the location classification (damp or wet). Do not exceed the 15-amp circuit rating when connecting downstream protected outlets.
