Leviton 515CA – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Leviton 515CA sold individually or in a case?
The 515CA ships as a pack of 100 connectors. That quantity suits a shop building cord assemblies in batches or a facilities crew stocking a standard repair part, but it is not the way to buy one replacement connector.
2) Will the Leviton 515CA mate with plugs from other brands?
Yes. It is built to the NEMA blade configuration standard, so it mates with any NEMA plug or receptacle of the same configuration regardless of who made it. That is the point of the NEMA designation, interchangeability across manufacturers.
3) Can a Leviton 515CA connector be used outdoors or in a washdown area?
The Leviton 515CA is built to NEMA connector specifications for standardized cord-and-plug connections in commercial and industrial installations, and is not described as a watertight or weatherproof device. For wet, outdoor, or washdown locations, the Pass and Seymour Turnlok 27W series is a 20A watertight connector rated NEMA 4X/6P, and Bryant's WPC series is a weatherproof wiring connector fitting. Either of those is the direction to go when the connection point is exposed to water.
4) What is the alternative to the Leviton 515CA connector for patient care areas that require hospital grade devices?
The Leviton 515CA is a NEMA-configuration cord connector for general commercial and industrial cord-and-plug wiring. For patient care spaces where the specification calls for a hospital grade device, the Bryant 8269T is a hospital grade NEMA 5-15R connector and carries that grade designation on the device itself. If the drawing or facility standard says hospital grade, the 8269T meets that call-out where a standard commercial connector does not.
5) What is the Leviton 515CA actually used for on a cord assembly?
It is the female cord connector end, the piece that terminates a flexible cord and mates with a plug. Electricians use it to build or repair extension cords and equipment cord sets in commercial and industrial work, and as a drop-in replacement for an existing NEMA connector body.
6) What is the Leviton part number to order for this connector, and is there more than one version?
One model only, Leviton 515CA. There are no finish, color, or amperage variations to pick from, so 515CA is the full ordering designation.
7) What is the difference between the Leviton 515CA and a Turnlok 27W connector?
The Leviton 515CA is a straight-blade NEMA connector intended to mate with matching NEMA-rated plugs and receptacles used throughout the electrical trade. The Pass and Seymour Turnlok 27W is a locking-style 20A watertight connector rated NEMA 4X/6P and finished in yellow. The two are not interchangeable at the mating face: a straight-blade cord cap will not engage a Turnlok device, so the choice follows whatever is already on the cord or the receptacle end of the circuit.
8) We buy the Leviton 515CA by the case for MRO stock. Is there an equivalent connector from another manufacturer we can standardize on?
The Leviton 515CA is supplied in packs of 100 for facilities teams carrying connector stock, and it is a standard NEMA-configuration cord connector. Bryant's 8269T covers the same NEMA 5-15R connector pattern in a hospital grade build, which is the common choice when one stocked part has to serve both general commercial circuits and areas with a hospital grade requirement. Standardizing on a single configuration matters more than the brand name, since NEMA designations are what govern the fit.
9) Is the Bryant WPC a substitute for the Leviton 515CA?
They do different jobs. The Leviton 515CA is a cord connector that forms the connection point between a cord and a mating NEMA plug. The Bryant WPC series is a weatherproof wiring connector fitting, so it addresses sealing the connection against the weather rather than providing the NEMA blade interface itself. If the requirement is a cord-end connector for a standard NEMA circuit, the WPC is not a drop-in replacement for the 515CA.
10) We standardize wiring devices across a portfolio of buildings. Does buying the 515CA in bulk make sense for that?
It does, for one reason: a single NEMA-configuration connector stocked in 100-piece packs gives every maintenance tech the same part for cord repairs across every site. Where an opening is outdoors or in a patient-care room, you still need a different device, so plan those as separate line items rather than forcing the 515CA into them.
