Cooper Wiring Devices 1877W-BOX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Cooper 1877W 20A receptacle accept a regular 15A plug, or only 20A T-slot plugs?
Both. The 1877W is a 5-20R configuration, and a 5-20R face takes standard 15A straight-blade plugs as well as the 20A plug with the sideways T blade. So a floor buffer, a commercial copier, and an ordinary laptop brick all land in the same outlet. What it will not do is give you two outlets: this is a single receptacle, one device per opening, which is the point when you want a dedicated circuit going to one machine and nothing else creeping onto it.
2) Can I put a Cooper 1877W single receptacle on a 15 amp circuit?
No, and this is the one that gets electricians called back. A single receptacle (one outlet, not a duplex) must have a branch circuit rating that matches its own rating, so a 20A 5-20R single like the 1877W belongs on a 20A circuit with 12 AWG conductors. The duplex exception that lets a 20A duplex sit on a 15A circuit does not apply to a single. If the circuit you are feeding is 15A, you need a 15A device, not this one.
3) Is the Cooper 1877W UL listed for commercial and healthcare work?
Yes, the 1877W is cULus Listed, meaning it carries both the US and Canadian listings from the same mark. That is the certification a spec or a submittal package is normally asking for on a commercial device. For a facility standard, note the rating is 20A 125V straight blade and the grade is commercial specification grade, which is the tier above residential and below hospital grade, so if your drawing calls specifically for hospital grade with the green dot, this device does not meet that call.
4) Is the Cooper 1877W back wire or side wire, and what wire size does that take?
Side wire. Terminations are binding screws on the sides of the device, which is what most commercial spec work is wired with and what an inspector expects to see on a 20A circuit. Plan on 12 AWG solid or stranded looped under the screws for a 20 amp branch. If your crew is standardized on back-wire clamp bodies for speed on a large rough-in, this is not that device.
5) Should I use a single 20A receptacle or a 20A duplex for a piece of equipment?
Use a single like the 1877W when you want exactly one thing on that circuit, a rooftop unit convenience outlet, a copier, a sump or ejector pump, a piece of shop equipment. The single face physically prevents anyone plugging a space heater in alongside and tripping the breaker at 2am. Use a 20A duplex where the outlet is general purpose and you want two positions. The rule also differs: a single must be on a circuit rated no less than the device, while a 20A duplex may sit on a 15A circuit.
6) Can I use the Cooper 1877W outdoors or in a damp location?
No. The 1877W is a standard interior specification grade device, listed cULus for the applications it is built for, offices, retail, healthcare, schools, light industrial and multi-unit residential. Outdoors, or anywhere in a wet or damp location, you need a device in a weatherproof in-use cover with the required GFCI protection ahead of it. This receptacle also has no integral GFCI, so it does not satisfy a GFCI requirement on its own.
7) How do I order the exact Cooper 1877W, and how does it come packaged?
Order by manufacturer part number 1877W-BOX. The 1877W is the white version of the device, 20A 125V, 5-20R, side wire, and the amperage option offered is 20A. Each device weighs .163 lb, so a case is light enough to carry a full floor's worth up a ladder in one trip.
