Leviton Telcom TBR15-E Tamper-resistant Duplex Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM TBR15-E is a tamper-resistant duplex electrical receptacle rated for 15 amps at 125 volts. It features a 2-pole, 3-wire configuration and accepts NEMA 5-15R plug types. The built-in tamper-resistant shutter mechanism prevents accidental or intentional insertion of foreign objects into the slots, making it compliant with current NEC requirements for tamper protection in residential and commercial occupancies. Licensed electricians install this device as a direct replacement or new-construction outlet in standard single-gang wiring boxes. It ships as a single unit.

This receptacle is suited for residential and light commercial electrical installations where tamper-resistant outlets are required by code. Typical applications include bedrooms, hallways, kitchens, and any occupied space subject to NEC tamper-resistant outlet mandates. It fits standard single-gang boxes and works with conventional 14 AWG or 12 AWG branch circuit wiring on 15-amp circuits.
