Leviton Telcom GFNT2-HFE 20A Gfci Outlet

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM GFNT2-HFE is a 20-amp, non-tamper-resistant GFCI outlet designed for ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection in residential and light commercial electrical installations. It meets NAFTA compliance standards and is manufactured without mercury, making it a suitable choice where hazardous-material restrictions apply. Licensed electricians install this device to protect personnel from ground-fault shock hazards in areas where water or moisture may be present. The non-tamper-resistant design is appropriate for locations where tamper-resistant receptacles are not required by code, such as certain commercial and industrial settings.

This GFCI outlet is used in standard electrical rough-in applications where 20-amp branch circuit protection is needed. Typical install scenarios include kitchens, bathrooms, garages, utility rooms, outdoor receptacle locations, and similar wet or damp-area circuits. The 20A rating accommodates higher-draw circuits compared to standard 15A GFCI devices. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for installation by a qualified electrician in compliance with applicable local and national electrical codes.

Key Features

• 20-amp ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection for personnel safety
• Non-tamper-resistant design for commercial and industrial applications where TR is not required
• NAFTA-compliant construction
• Mercury-free materials meet environmental and disposal regulations
• Single-unit packaging suitable for individual circuit replacements or new installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation GFCI receptacle for standard 20-amp branch circuits requiring ground-fault protection per NEC requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the branch circuit at the panel and verify absence of voltage with a meter before beginning any wiring work. GFCI receptacles installed in wet or damp locations require a weatherproof cover rated for the specific application. Test the GFCI function using the built-in test and reset buttons after installation to confirm proper operation.
