Leviton Telcom T5836-T 20A Tamper-resistant Usb Type-c Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM T5836-T is a 20-amp tamper-resistant duplex receptacle with integrated USB Type-C charging ports. It combines standard 20A AC outlet functionality with high-power USB-C delivery in a single device, eliminating the need for separate charging adapters at the outlet. Designed for installation in residential and light commercial settings, this receptacle is typically installed by licensed electricians during new construction, renovation, or retrofit projects where modern charging infrastructure is required. The tamper-resistant shutter mechanism meets NEC requirements for receptacle protection in applicable locations.

This receptacle is suited for bedrooms, kitchens, home offices, hotel rooms, and commercial spaces where both AC power and USB-C device charging are needed at a single outlet location. The 20A rating supports higher-load branch circuits, making it compatible with 20A dedicated or shared circuits wired with 12 AWG conductors. It is sold individually as a single unit.

Always shut off the branch circuit breaker and verify the circuit is de-energized with a non-contact voltage tester before handling wiring. This device requires a 20A-rated circuit wired with 12 AWG or heavier conductors. Do not install on a 15A circuit or connect to aluminum wiring without appropriate antioxidant and listed connectors.
