Leviton Telcom M5262-2SR Controlled Receptacle 15A

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M5262-2SR is a 15-amp controlled receptacle finished in red. Controlled receptacles are designed to allow selective power management at specific outlet locations, making them a practical choice for applications where certain circuits need to be switched or identified independently. The red color coding provides a quick visual indicator that distinguishes this outlet from standard receptacles on the same circuit, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection of critical loads. Licensed electricians and facility maintenance technicians typically specify and install this device in commercial and industrial environments.

This controlled receptacle is well suited for commercial, institutional, and light industrial settings where circuit identification and load control are required at the device level. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for use in standard 15-amp branch circuits wired to applicable electrical codes. The red finish is commonly used to designate protected, priority, or switched circuits in panel and outlet labeling schemes used by facilities teams and electrical contractors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified, licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Always shut off power at the circuit breaker and verify the circuit is de-energized with a non-contact voltage tester before beginning work. Do not exceed the 15-amp circuit rating for connected loads. Confirm proper grounding and neutral continuity before restoring power.
