Leviton S04-T5325-00T Tamper Resistant Duplex Receptacle 15A

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO S04-T5325-00T is a decorative tamper resistant grounded duplex receptacle rated at 15 amps and 125 volts. It meets the 2008 NEC requirement for tamper resistant receptacles in residential and commercial installations. An internal shutter mechanism blocks access to the contacts unless both prongs of a plug are inserted simultaneously, preventing insertion of hair pins, keys, and similar small objects. Wiring options include quick wire push-in terminals or side wired terminals, giving electricians flexibility on the job. Heavy-duty construction is designed for a long, trouble-free service life. Sold in a package of 10.

This receptacle is suited for new construction and retrofit installations in residential and light commercial settings where the 2008 NEC or local code amendments require tamper resistant protection. Typical applications include bedrooms, hallways, kitchens, and any location within 5.5 feet of the floor where code mandates tamper resistance. The decorative style plate-ready form factor fits standard single-gang wallplates. Licensed electricians and journeymen handle installation as part of rough-in or finish electrical work.
