Bryant 5279-3 Straight Blade Flanged Outlet, Panel-Mount Power Inlet

The Bryant 5279-3 is a straight blade flanged outlet built for fixed, panel-mount power connections. Its flanged body mounts directly to a panel, enclosure, or equipment surface rather than a standard wall box, making it well suited for power-inlet applications where a rugged, surface-mounted connection point is required. This Bryant outlet is available in NEMA 5-15R, NEMA 5-20R, and NEMA 6-15R configurations, so installers can match the receptacle pattern to the specific plug the connected equipment requires. As a Bryant wiring device, the 5279-3 is engineered for the demands of professional electrical work across commercial and industrial power distribution projects, whether it is being installed on new equipment or specified as a replacement part during a maintenance or renovation project.

Key Features

  • NEMA Configuration Options: Offered in NEMA 5-15R, NEMA 5-20R, and NEMA 6-15R receptacle patterns so the outlet can be matched to the correct mating plug for the application.
  • Flanged Outlet Design: The flanged body is built for surface or panel mounting, providing a fixed, secure power-inlet connection point rather than a standard wall-box installation.
  • Straight Blade Connection: A straight blade configuration engages standard straight-blade plugs for a dependable power connection.
  • Professional-Grade Build: Manufactured by Bryant for use in demanding commercial and industrial electrical environments.
  • Purpose-Built Power Inlet: Functions as a dedicated connection point for equipment and power cords terminated with a matching NEMA plug.
  • Bryant Wiring Device Line: Part of Bryant's broader catalog of professional-grade receptacles and outlets used throughout commercial and industrial facilities.

Bryant 5279 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which NEMA configuration of the Bryant 5279 flanged outlet do I need for a 120V 20 amp cord?
A 20 amp 125V cord set uses a NEMA 5-20P plug, so you want the NEMA 5-20R version, which is Bryant part number 5479. The 5-15R version (part 5279) takes standard 15 amp 125V plugs, and the 6-15R version (part 5679) is the 250V two-pole pattern. Match the letter-for-letter NEMA code on the plug you are connecting, since a 5-20P will not enter a 5-15R face.
2) Can I install the Bryant 5279-3 flanged outlet in a standard wall box?
No. The 5279-3 is a flanged device meant to bolt to a panel, enclosure or equipment surface, not to a standard wall box with a plate. If you need a wall-box receptacle, order a standard duplex or single receptacle instead. Use this one where you want a fixed connection point on the face of a machine, generator cabinet, or metal enclosure.
3) Is the Bryant 6-15R flanged outlet 240 volt?
The NEMA 6-15R pattern (Bryant 5679) is the 2-pole, 3-wire grounding 250V configuration rated 15 amps, so it is what you use for 208/240V single-phase equipment. The other two options on the 5279-3 are 125V patterns, 5-15R and 5-20R. Nothing in the 6-15 family is a neutral-carrying device, so it suits straight two-hot-plus-ground loads only.
4) What is the difference between a flanged outlet and a flanged inlet?
A flanged outlet has receptacle slots and accepts a plug, which is what the Bryant 5279-3 is in all three of its configurations (5-15R, 5-20R, 6-15R, the R meaning receptacle). A flanged inlet has male blades and mates with a cord-end connector instead. If the cord you are connecting ends in a plug, you want this outlet; if the cord ends in a female connector body, you need the flanged inlet version instead.
5) Which Bryant part number do I order for each NEMA configuration of the 5279-3 flanged outlet?
Three part numbers cover the line: 5279 for NEMA 5-15R, 5479 for NEMA 5-20R, and 5679 for NEMA 6-15R. Specify by that MPN when you are matching an existing device on a machine panel, since the three share the same flanged straight blade body but are not electrically interchangeable.
