Leviton Telcom M5362-R 5-20R Locking Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M5362-R is a 5-20R configuration locking industrial ground receptacle designed for demanding electrical installations. Built to the NEMA 5-20R standard, this receptacle accepts 20-amp, 125-volt locking plugs and provides a secure, twist-lock connection that resists accidental disconnection under load. The Lev-Lok design is suited for industrial and commercial environments where vibration, movement, or heavy use would make a standard straight-blade receptacle unreliable. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors are the primary installers of this device.

This receptacle is appropriate for industrial facilities, commercial buildings, data centers, and other locations requiring a stable, locked electrical connection at 20 amps. The 5-20R locking configuration is commonly specified in equipment panels, portable power distribution, and fixed outlet installations where NEMA locking standards are called out in electrical design documents. It is sold individually as a single unit.

Key Features

• NEMA 5-20R locking receptacle configuration for secure twist-lock connections
• Industrial ground design for use in high-demand commercial and industrial applications
• Lev-Lok mechanism resists accidental plug disconnection under load or vibration

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation receptacle compatible with NEMA 5-20R locking plug configurations in 20-amp, 125-volt circuits.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify the absence of voltage with a meter before beginning work. Ensure the outlet box, wiring gauge, and circuit breaker rating are all consistent with a 20-amp circuit. Follow local jurisdiction requirements for inspection and permitting.
