B-Line Eaton Arrow Hart heavy duty industrial specification grade duplex receptacle, #14-10 AWG, 20A, Flush, 125V, Back and side, Red, Brass, Nylon, 5

Red is just the body color on the 5362RD, not a function. In the field red duplex receptacles are conventionally used to mark circuits fed from emergency or standby power, which is why this color is stocked, but electrically it is an ordinary 125V, 20A, 5-20R two-pole three-wire straight blade duplex. Nothing inside it switches, senses, or restricts the source, so the circuit has to actually be fed from the emergency panel for the color to mean anything.

Yes. The 5-20R face on the 5362RD has the T-slot neutral, so it takes both standard 5-15P cords and 20 amp 5-20P cords at 125V. Put it on a 20 amp circuit with #12 conductors; it is not intended to terminate a 15 amp branch circuit, since the face advertises 20 amp capacity.

Terminations take #14 through #10 AWG, on screws, and the device is wired back or side, so you can backwire straight into the clamp or wrap the side screws. Back and side wiring also means you can pigtail or feed through with two conductors per terminal position where the terminal allows it. For a 20 amp circuit you will normally be landing #12.

The 5362RD is auto-grounding, so the yoke bonds to a properly grounded metal box through the mounting screw as it is tightened. It is still a three-wire device with an equipment ground terminal, and most inspectors and specs want the equipment grounding conductor landed on it anyway. In a nonmetallic box the ground wire on the green terminal is the only ground path.

It is built as a heavy duty industrial specification grade device, which is the top tier above commercial spec grade and residential. The face and body are nylon, the body material is glass-filled nylon, and the contacts are brass. That combination is what holds up to repeated cord insertions and impact in plants, shops, and equipment rooms rather than light office use.

Yes. It is a flush-mount standard style duplex, 4.38 inches in the long dimension with a 1.91 inch width and 1.78 inch height, which is the usual strap-and-yoke footprint for a single-gang box and a standard duplex cover plate. It is not a decorator or rectangular-opening device, so use a plate with the two round-and-slot duplex openings.

Both. The 5362RD carries UL certification and is listed as RoHS compliant, which covers the two boxes most institutional and government submittals ask for on a wiring device.

Screw-catch holds the mounting screws captive in the strap so they do not drop out of the device while you are setting it in the box. On a ladder or overhead it saves chasing a screw across the floor. The 5362RD has it along with auto-grounding.
