Leviton Telcom 16341-E 5-20R Decorator Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 16341-E is a single decorator-style duplex receptacle rated for 5-20R service. It is a 2-pole, 3-wire device designed for standard branch-circuit wiring in commercial and residential electrical installations. The 5-20R configuration accepts both standard 15-amp plugs and 20-amp T-blade plugs, making it a versatile outlet choice for locations that require higher current capacity. Licensed electricians install this receptacle as a direct replacement or new-construction outlet in standard single-gang wall boxes. The decorator profile sits flush with decorator-style wallplates for a clean finish.

This receptacle is suited for commercial and light industrial applications where a 20-amp rated outlet is required at a standard single-gang location. Common install scenarios include office buildouts, break rooms, equipment rooms, and anywhere a 20-amp circuit feeds general-use outlets. Its 2-pole, 3-wire wiring configuration is compatible with standard grounded branch circuits wired to NEC requirements for 20-amp receptacle circuits.
