Leviton Telcom M1636 Lev-lok Slim 20A Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M1636 is a Lev-Lok slim-profile duplex receptacle in a decorator-style form factor, designed for 20-amp branch circuit applications. This device is built for commercial and residential electrical installations where a low-profile outlet is required in standard decorator wallplate openings. The Lev-Lok design uses a twist-lock engagement mechanism at the plug interface, helping to prevent accidental disconnection under load. Licensed electricians install this device during rough-in, remodel, or device replacement work on 20-amp circuits.

This receptacle is suited for commercial office environments, healthcare facilities, data centers, and high-traffic residential installations where outlet security is a priority. The slim body depth makes it easier to terminate and fit into shallow electrical boxes without excessive wire congestion. It accepts standard 20-amp Lev-Lok plugs and installs in single-gang decorator openings using a standard wallplate.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). Always de-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify absence of voltage with a meter before beginning work. Use appropriate wire connectors or screw terminals as specified for the wire gauge on the circuit. Ensure the box fill calculation accounts for the device volume per NEC requirements.
