Leviton Telcom 2690 Locking Receptacle 3-pole 3-wire

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 2690 is a locking electrical receptacle designed for secure, twist-lock connections in demanding electrical installations. Built as a 3-pole, 3-wire configuration, it provides a positive mechanical lock that resists accidental disconnection under load. This type of receptacle is commonly installed in commercial, industrial, and heavy-duty residential applications where a standard straight-blade outlet is not sufficient. Licensed electricians install this device as part of branch circuit wiring where a locked connection is required for safety or code compliance.

The 2690 is suited for applications requiring a 3-pole, 3-wire locking interface. Typical install scenarios include generator hookups, industrial equipment feeds, and other fixed or portable power connections where the NEMA L13-30 twist-lock configuration is specified. The unit is sold individually and is categorized as a hardware accessory electrical component.
