Leviton 16342-W – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Leviton 16342 20-amp receptacle accept a regular 15-amp plug, or only 20-amp T-blade cords?
Both. The 16342 is a NEMA 5-20R straight blade duplex, and that face takes standard 15-amp parallel-blade plugs as well as 20-amp T-blade cords. So a break room fed by a 20-amp circuit can run a microwave with a T-blade cord and everyday office equipment from the same device.
2) Can I put a 20-amp 5-20R receptacle like the Leviton 16342 on a 15-amp branch circuit?
No. A 5-20R face belongs on a 20-amp circuit with 12 AWG conductors and a 20-amp breaker, because it tells a user the outlet will carry a 20-amp load. On a 15-amp circuit you want a 15-amp 5-15R device instead. The 16342 is rated 20A at 125V, which is the standard commercial circuit it is built for.
3) Do I need a special wallplate for a Decora Plus receptacle, or will a standard duplex cover fit?
You need a decorator or rectangular opening plate, not the old figure-eight duplex cover. The 16342 is a Decora Plus device, so it takes any standard Decora-style wallplate, in one, two or more gangs depending on the box. A round-hole duplex plate will not fit over it.
4) I am replacing a cracked outlet in an office. Will the Leviton 16342 fit the same box and wires?
If the existing device is a decorator-style outlet on a 20-amp circuit, yes, the 16342 drops into the same single-gang box on the same strap. Two things to check before you swap: the circuit must be 20-amp for the 5-20R face to be correct, and the existing wallplate has to be a decorator opening. If the old outlet is the traditional two-round-hole style, plan on a new plate as well.
5) What colors does the Leviton Decora Plus 16342 receptacle come in, and what is the part number for each?
Four colors, each its own part number: White is 16342-W, Ivory is 16342-I, Gray is 16342-GY, and Black is 16342-E. The suffix is the only thing that changes, so you can standardize a building on one device and still match the trim color room to room.
6) Is the Leviton 16342 commercial grade or spec grade, and is it tough enough for a high-traffic lobby or retail floor?
Commercial grade. The Decora Plus 16342 uses a heavy-duty impact-resistant body meant for repeated abuse in commercial and light-industrial space, which is the level a property manager should be putting in corridors, retail floors and break areas rather than a residential-grade device. For equipment rooms and shop areas where cords get yanked daily, this is the right tier.
7) Is the Leviton 16342 a GFCI or tamper-resistant receptacle?
Neither. The 16342 is a straight blade commercial duplex, so it has no built-in ground fault protection and no shutter mechanism. In a location that requires GFCI protection, either feed it from a GFCI device upstream or a GFCI breaker, and where a facility type calls for tamper resistance, specify a TR-marked device instead.
8) Does the Leviton 16342 duplex give me two separately usable outlets, and can I split it between two circuits?
The 16342 is a duplex, so you get two independent connection points from one box, which is what you want where a single opening has to feed a desk and a printer. Nothing in the device data describes a break-off tab for split-wiring, so treat it as a standard duplex fed from one 20-amp, 125V circuit and plan a second device where you truly need two circuits.
9) Where can I get the spec sheet for the Leviton 16342 for a submittal?
Leviton publishes technical information for this Decora Plus device, and ZenSupply hosts it at https://zensupply.com/content/pdf/leviton/technical-information-e24200.pdf. For the submittal itself, the numbers a reviewer usually wants are on the face of the order: 20A, 125V, NEMA 5-20R, commercial grade, with the color called out by suffix such as 16342-GY for gray.
