Leviton T5320-T 15A Tamper-resistant Duplex Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON T5320-T is a 15 amp, 125 volt tamper-resistant duplex receptacle designed for residential and light commercial electrical installations. Rated NEMA 5-15R, it uses a 2-pole, 3-wire straight-blade configuration with grounding. The tamper-resistant shutters meet NEC requirements for child safety in dwelling units, blocking single-prong insertion attempts. The Light Almond finish suits standard residential decor. Installation accepts both Quickwire push-in and side-wired terminations, giving electricians flexibility depending on box configuration and local inspection preference. UL and CSA listed for code compliance.

This receptacle is suited for residential new construction, renovation work, and commercial tenant build-outs where NEC tamper-resistant receptacle requirements apply. It is commonly installed in bedrooms, hallways, common areas, and any other locations where the NEC mandates tamper resistance. The Quickwire push-in terminals support faster rough-in, while the side terminals are appropriate for installations requiring screw-terminal connections per local code or inspector preference.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local electrical codes. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify with a non-contact voltage tester before handling any wiring. If using Quickwire push-in terminals, confirm the wire gauge is within the listed range for that termination method. Screw-terminal side wiring is generally preferred for inspections requiring a more secure mechanical connection.
