Leviton Telcom M1636-IG Isolated Ground Modular Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M1636-IG is an isolated ground Decora-style modular receptacle designed for low-voltage and data/telecom wiring applications. Isolated ground construction separates the equipment ground path from the building ground, reducing electrical noise that can interfere with sensitive electronic equipment. Licensed electricians and low-voltage technicians typically install this receptacle in commercial and residential settings where clean signal integrity is required at the outlet level.

This receptacle is suited for structured wiring panels, telecom rough-in installations, and modular wiring systems where a Decora-format faceplate profile is specified. The Lev-Lok modular design allows the insert to snap into standard Decora wallplate openings, making it compatible with common commercial and residential installation methods. It is sold as a single unit and is typically installed as part of a larger low-voltage distribution assembly.

Key Features

• Isolated ground design reduces electrical noise for sensitive electronic and telecom equipment
• Decora-style modular format snaps into standard Decora wallplate openings
• Lev-Lok modular system allows field-configurable outlet configurations
• Single-unit packaging suitable for individual outlet replacement or new installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install component for Lev-Lok modular wiring systems using standard Decora-format wallplates and structured wiring enclosures.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit and verify absence of voltage before beginning any wiring work. Follow the manufacturer wiring instructions for proper isolated ground termination to maintain the integrity of the separate ground path. Do not combine the isolated ground conductor with the standard equipment ground at the device.
