Leviton Telcom 5490-W Surge Protective Receptacle 20A

Product Description

The Leviton Telcom 5490-W is a 4-in-1 transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS) receptacle rated at 20 amps. It combines surge protection with a standard duplex outlet configuration in a single device, providing point-of-use protection against voltage transients and electrical noise on branch circuits. The unit is finished in white and is designed for 2-pole, 3-wire wiring configurations. Electricians and low-voltage installers use this device in commercial and residential applications where sensitive equipment requires surge protection directly at the outlet level.

This TVSS receptacle is suited for installation in offices, data rooms, medical facilities, and other commercial environments where electronic equipment must be protected from power line surges at the point of use. The 4-in-1 design consolidates multiple protective functions into a single receptacle footprint, reducing the need for additional inline surge devices. Its 20-amp rating supports standard branch circuits serving computer equipment, communication devices, and instrumentation.

Key Features

• Integrated TVSS protection at the point of use, eliminating the need for a separate surge strip or inline suppressor
• 20-amp rating supports standard commercial branch circuits
• 2-pole, 3-wire configuration for grounded circuit installations
• 4-in-1 design combines receptacle and surge suppression functions in one unit
• White finish for standard wallplate compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install TVSS receptacle for grounded 2-pole, 3-wire, 20-amp branch circuits in commercial and residential electrical systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 285 and applicable local codes governing surge protective devices. De-energize the branch circuit at the panel and verify absence of voltage before wiring the device. The unit is intended for in-wall installation in a standard single-gang or compatible electrical box. Do not exceed the 20-amp branch circuit rating.
