Eaton 736W-BOX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Eaton 736 duplex receptacle work with 12 AWG wire, or is it 14 AWG only?
The Eaton 736 series residential duplex receptacle takes #14-12 AWG conductors on its side-wire screw terminals, so it lands on both a 15A branch circuit run in 14 AWG and a 12 AWG run. Note the device itself is rated 15A, 125V, so putting it on a 20A circuit does not make it a 20A outlet.
2) Can I use this Eaton residential receptacle in a commercial or rental unit with heavy plug cycling?
It's a residential-grade device with a thermoplastic body, built for normal household use. For corridors, offices, shops or high-turnover rental units where cords get pulled daily, step up to a spec or heavy-duty grade device such as the Bryant 5362B 20A/125V heavy-duty duplex or the Pass & Seymour 26352W specification grade 20A decorator duplex.
3) Do I need a tamper-resistant outlet instead of the Eaton 736 in dwelling unit rooms?
The Eaton 736 is a standard 1-15R duplex and is not a tamper-resistant device. Where dwelling-unit receptacles must be tamper resistant, the Pass & Seymour 3232TRW is a Trademaster tamper-resistant duplex receptacle in white and serves that requirement in the same standard duplex opening.
4) Can I use the Eaton 736 receptacle where GFCI protection is required?
No. The Eaton 736 is a plain 15A, 125V duplex with no GFCI function. Where the receptacle itself must provide ground-fault protection, the Pass & Seymour 2097HGI is a hospital grade 20A duplex self-test GFCI receptacle in ivory. Use the 736 only on circuits that do not require receptacle-level GFCI, or downstream of a protected device.
5) What should I use instead of the Eaton 736 duplex receptacle on a 20A branch circuit?
The Eaton 736 series is a 15A, 125V duplex receptacle in a 1-15R configuration, so it is not the device for a circuit that needs a 20A receptacle face. For 20A at 125V, the Bryant 5362B is a heavy-duty duplex receptacle rated 20A/125V, and the Bryant 5362BI is the same 20A/125V heavy-duty duplex. Both keep the standard duplex footprint while carrying the higher amperage rating.
6) The Eaton 736 is residential grade - what is the equivalent if my spec calls for specification grade?
The Eaton 736 is a residential-grade 15A, 125V duplex with a thermoplastic body and side-wire screw terminals. When a drawing calls for specification grade at the higher amperage, the Pass & Seymour 26352W is a 20A 125V heavy-duty spec grade decorator duplex in white, listed with a Specification Grade designation. Note the 26352W uses a decorator opening rather than the standard duplex face of the 736.
7) Can the Eaton 736 duplex go in a hazardous or wet industrial location?
No. The Eaton 736 is a flush-mount thermoplastic residential duplex for standard device boxes and is not built for classified areas. For hazardous locations, the Appleton FSQC Series is an interlocked explosionproof receptacle, and the Appleton U-Line ECS set is a factory-sealed 3-pole plug and receptacle rated for 15 and 20 amp service.
8) Will the Eaton 736 work on a 277V circuit?
No. The Eaton 736 is rated 125V and is intended for standard residential branch circuits. For 277V service, the Bryant 430R9W is a 4750DR series 2-pole 3-wire 277V motor-duty receptacle. Do not substitute the 125V duplex on a 277V circuit.
9) Is this Eaton receptacle back-wire or side-wire?
Side wire only. Terminations are screw terminals on the sides of the device, so plan on hooking and tightening each conductor rather than pushing it into a back hole or clamp plate.
10) What plugs fit the Eaton 736 outlet?
It's a 1-15R configuration, meaning a standard household duplex face that accepts two-prong 1-15P plugs and, because the slots are the common pattern, everyday cord caps found on lamps, small appliances and electronics. For anything needing a 20A T-slot or a locking blade, this is the wrong device.
11) What colors does the Eaton 736 receptacle come in, and do I need to order plates separately?
Three colors: brown (736B-BOX), ivory (736V-BOX) and white (736W-BOX). Wall plates are a separate item, so match the plate color to the device when you're standardizing a building.
12) I'm replacing old outlets throughout an apartment building. Is this the right device to standardize on?
For bedrooms, living rooms and hallways on general-purpose 120V circuits, yes, this is the everyday replacement device, and ordering one color across the property keeps the openings matching. Where the local code requires tamper-resistant devices in dwelling units, or where a receptacle needs GFCI protection, those locations need a different device than this plain 1-15R.
13) Is the Eaton 736 suitable for a patient care area or does it need a hospital grade device?
The Eaton 736 is a residential-grade duplex rated 15A, 125V and carries cULus Listing, which suits general household branch circuits. For openings that call for a hospital grade device, the Pass & Seymour 2097HGI is a hospital grade 20A duplex self-test GFCI receptacle.
14) What do I use if the plug has to lock in place rather than pull straight out like on the Eaton 736?
The Eaton 736 accepts standard straight-blade two-prong and three-prong plugs in a 1-15R duplex configuration, with no twist-lock retention. For a locking connection, the Bryant 70520FR is a 7 Series NEMA flanged locking receptacle, and the Pass & Seymour 3330 is a Turnlok 30A non-NEMA single receptacle. Both are single-outlet locking devices rather than duplex faces.
15) For a rental turnover, is there a heavier-duty duplex than the Eaton 736 that still fits the same box?
The Eaton 736 is a residential-grade 15A, 125V duplex with side-wire screw terminals and a flush mounting style for standard device boxes. If you want a more robust device in the same standard duplex opening, the Bryant 5362B and 5362BI are heavy-duty grade 20A/125V duplex receptacles. Confirm the branch circuit and breaker suit a 20A receptacle before switching.
