Bryant DRS20WTR 20A 125V 5-20R Receptacle
The Bryant DRS20WTR is a 20A, 125V receptacle built to the NEMA 5-20R configuration, engineered to deliver dependable power connections in commercial, industrial, and light-duty applications. As a wiring device from Bryant, the DRS20WTR is rated to carry up to 20 amps on a standard 125-volt branch circuit, and its 5-20R pattern is designed to accept both 5-15P and 5-20P plug caps, giving electricians and facility maintenance teams added flexibility when connecting 15A or 20A cord-and-plug equipment. Specifying the correct amperage, voltage, and configuration match is essential for safe, code-compliant wiring device installations, and the DRS20WTR is built around exactly that combination: 20A, 125V, 5-20R. Electrical contractors, maintenance staff, and facility engineers can reference this part when a job calls for a receptacle rated to these exact electrical parameters.
Key Features
- NEMA 5-20R Configuration: Accepts both 5-15P and 5-20P plug patterns, allowing compatibility with 15A and 20A cord caps on the same receptacle.
- Amperage Rating: Rated for 20A branch circuits, suited for equipment and tools that draw higher current than standard 15A devices.
- Voltage Rating: Rated 125V, matched to standard single-phase branch circuit wiring found in commercial and light industrial settings.
- Bryant Model DRS20WTR: Identified under Bryant's part numbering for straightforward specification, ordering, and replacement.
- Wiring Device Application: Intended for use where a fixed 20A, 125V, 5-20R receptacle is required for equipment connections or general branch circuit outlets.
- Consistent Rating Match: Amperage, voltage, and configuration are matched to one another (20A, 125V, 5-20R), simplifying correct part selection for a given circuit.

Why Bryant?
Bryant engineers wiring devices like the DRS20WTR to match a specific amperage, voltage, and configuration so electrical professionals can specify exactly the receptacle a circuit calls for, rather than guessing at compatibility. Pairing a 20A, 125V rating with the widely used 5-20R pattern means the DRS20WTR can accept both 15A and 20A cord caps, reducing the risk of an improperly matched connection on the job. For contractors and facility teams standardizing on a single receptacle across 15A and 20A branch circuits, the DRS20WTR offers one part number that covers both plug types.

Bryant DRS20WTR – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Bryant DRS20WTR 5-20R receptacle accept a regular 15 amp plug?
Yes. The DRS20WTR uses the NEMA 5-20R pattern, which takes both 5-15P and 5-20P cord caps. That means standard 15 amp equipment plugs and 20 amp T-slot plugs both land on the same device, so one part number covers both on a 20A, 125V branch circuit.
2) Can I put a 20A 5-20R receptacle like the DRS20WTR on a 15 amp circuit?
No. The DRS20WTR is rated 20A at 125V and belongs on a 20 amp branch circuit with conductors sized for it. Putting a 5-20R outlet on a 15 amp circuit lets someone plug in a 20 amp cord cap the circuit cannot carry. For 15 amp circuits use a 5-15R device such as the Eaton Arrow Hart 5262W industrial duplex, 15A 125V, 5-15R.
3) I need an isolated ground 20A 125V receptacle for IT equipment. Is the DRS20WTR the right choice?
No. The DRS20WTR is a standard 20A, 125V, 5-20R receptacle with no isolated ground. For a dedicated technology or medical circuit where the ground has to be separated from the box, the Pass and Seymour IG5362-I heavy-duty spec-grade isolated ground duplex, 20A 125V, is the one to specify.
4) Is the Bryant DRS20WTR suitable for a hazardous location, or do I need something else?
For a classified area, specify a device built for it. The Bryant DRS20WTR is a general-purpose 20A 125V 5-20R receptacle for commercial, industrial and light-duty branch circuit work. Where the area is classified, Appleton offers the FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle, and the U-Line ECS factory-sealed 15 and 20 amp plug and receptacle set in a 3-pole configuration. Those are the products intended for hazardous-location equipment connections; a standard 5-20R wiring device is not.
5) What is the closest 20A 125V alternative to the Bryant DRS20WTR from another brand?
The Pass & Seymour IG5362-I is the nearest match on electrical rating: it is a heavy-duty spec-grade duplex receptacle rated 20A 125V, the same amperage and voltage as the Bryant DRS20WTR, which is a 20A 125V device in the NEMA 5-20R configuration. The difference is that the IG5362-I is an isolated ground device, so it carries a separate insulated grounding path intended for sensitive electronics and requires an isolated ground conductor run back to the panel. If the circuit is a conventional grounded branch circuit, the DRS20WTR is the straightforward choice; if the drawing calls out IG outlets for data or lab equipment, the IG5362-I is what the spec wants.
6) Can I use a 15A receptacle instead of the Bryant DRS20WTR?
Only where the branch circuit and the load allow it. The Bryant DRS20WTR is a 20A 125V device with the 5-20R face, which accepts both 5-15P and 5-20P cord caps. The Eaton 5262W is an industrial specification grade duplex rated 15A 125V in the 5-15R configuration, so it will take a 15A cord cap but will not accept a 20A plug. Eaton also lists the 816W-BOX as a commercial specification grade single receptacle at 15A. If any equipment on the circuit terminates in a 5-20P, the 5-20R face of the DRS20WTR is the one that will land it.
7) I need a 277V outlet, not 125V - what do I order instead of the Bryant DRS20WTR?
The Bryant DRS20WTR is rated 125V and will not serve a 277V circuit. For that voltage, the Pass & Seymour 5762 is a specification grade duplex self-grounding receptacle rated 15A 277V. Match the device to the circuit voltage; a 125V-rated 5-20R device on a 277V branch is not a legitimate substitution.
8) What is the Bryant part number to spec for a 20A 125V 5-20R outlet?
Order Bryant DRS20WTR. That single MPN is the 20A, 125V, 5-20R device, so it drops straight onto a drawing or a purchase order without needing a suffix chosen.
9) What else could I use instead of the Bryant DRS20WTR for a 20A 125V outlet with added function?
If the outlet has to shut off plug loads on a schedule for energy code reasons, the Pass and Seymour PLT26351 spec grade plug load timer receptacle is 20A 125V and does that. If you need a separated ground path, the Pass and Seymour IG5362-I is the 20A 125V isolated ground version. The Bryant DRS20WTR is the plain 5-20R device with no timer or isolated ground.
10) Can I standardize one receptacle across both 15A and 20A cord-and-plug loads in my building?
That is the practical reason facility teams pick the DRS20WTR. Because the 5-20R face accepts 15 amp and 20 amp cord caps, one stocked part number serves both kinds of equipment, provided every opening it goes in is fed by a 20 amp, 125V circuit.
11) Will a twist-lock receptacle work in place of the Bryant DRS20WTR?
No - a locking device takes a different plug entirely. The Bryant DRS20WTR uses the straight-blade NEMA 5-20R pattern that standard 5-15P and 5-20P cord caps push into. Locking devices such as the Pass & Seymour Turnlok 30A non-NEMA single receptacle or the Eaton 7379 industrial locking receptacle, rated 50A at 600V/250V AC/DC, require a matching twist-lock cord cap and are chosen where a cord must not be pulled loose or where the load exceeds a 20A 125V branch. They are not interchangeable with a 5-20R outlet.
12) What should I use if I want a 20A 125V outlet that shuts the load off on a schedule?
The Pass & Seymour PLT26351 is a heavy duty spec grade plug load timer receptacle rated 20A 125V, which is the same amperage and voltage as the Bryant DRS20WTR but adds timed control of the outlet - the option to look at where energy code requires controlled receptacles in offices and workstations. The Bryant DRS20WTR is an always-on 5-20R device for general branch circuit outlets and equipment connections.
