Leviton Telcom M5262-SCR Split Duplex Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M5262-SCR is a Levlok split duplex receptacle designed for use in commercial and residential electrical installations where independent circuit control of each outlet is required. A split duplex configuration means the two outlets on the receptacle are wired to separate circuits or switching legs, allowing one outlet to be switched while the other remains always-hot, or each to serve a different circuit load. Electricians select this receptacle when code or building design calls for divided outlet control, a common requirement in office environments, commercial spaces, and multi-circuit wiring layouts.

This receptacle is suited for standard duplex outlet boxes in both new construction and retrofit applications. The Levlok design is intended for secure device retention in the outlet box, reducing movement or loosening over time. It is appropriate for general-purpose branch circuit installations where split wiring is specified by the electrical plan or required by local code. Licensed electricians handle installation as part of branch circuit rough-in or device replacement work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) requirements for split-wired receptacles, including proper use of the break-off tab removal where applicable. Always de-energize the branch circuit at the panel and verify absence of voltage with a meter before beginning device work. Confirm box fill calculations and grounding continuity before completing installation.
