Leviton 55500-PRT Replacement Key

The Leviton 55500-PRT Replacement Key is a spare key designed for use with Leviton key-operated wiring devices, including key switches and key-actuated receptacles found in commercial, institutional, and industrial electrical systems. Facility managers, electrical contractors, and maintenance teams rely on genuine replacement keys like this one to keep key-operated controls functioning without having to replace the entire device when a key is lost, damaged, or simply needs a duplicate for a second authorized user. Because it is identified under the Leviton 55500-PRT designation, this key is intended to correspond with the matching Leviton key-operated hardware in the same series, helping ensure proper fit and function when it arrives on the jobsite or in the maintenance stockroom. Keeping a spare on hand is a simple, low-cost way to avoid unplanned downtime on a key-operated circuit.

  • Straightforward Ordering: A simple, single-item order that avoids the cost and downtime of replacing an entire key-operated switch or receptacle assembly.
  • Leviton Sourced: Ordered directly under the Leviton brand name, helping installers keep replacement hardware consistent with the original equipment on site.

Leviton 55500-PRT – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Leviton 55500-PRT key used for?
The 55500-PRT is a spare fork-type key for Leviton key-operated wiring devices, meaning key switches and key-actuated receptacles used in commercial, institutional, and industrial electrical systems. It is sold as a standalone replacement so a lost or damaged key doesn't force you to swap out the whole switch or receptacle.
2) Will this key fit any brand of key-operated light switch?
No. The 55500-PRT corresponds to Leviton key-operated hardware in the same series. If the key switch on the wall is another manufacturer's, this key is not the part to order. Check the device for the Leviton marking and the matching series before buying.
3) Can I order just the key without buying a new Leviton key switch?
Yes. The 55500-PRT is a single-item order, purpose-built as a replacement or spare so a key-operated switch or receptacle stays in service without a full device swap. That is the usual call for a maintenance stockroom: keep one or two on the shelf rather than carrying spare devices.
4) I need a second key so another maintenance tech can operate a key switch. Can I buy a duplicate?
That is one of the intended uses. The 55500-PRT is ordered as a spare or duplicate for a second authorized user, so facility teams commonly buy more than one and split them between the shop and a technician's ring. It is also sized for key rings and contractor toolkits.
5) Is the Leviton 55500-PRT a genuine Leviton part or an aftermarket key?
It is ordered under the Leviton brand and carries Leviton's own 55500-PRT designation, so the replacement hardware matches the original equipment on site rather than an aftermarket copy. Cross-reference that number against the key-operated device already installed before you order.
6) Are there different versions of the Leviton 55500-PRT replacement key to choose from?
No options to pick. The 55500-PRT is offered as one model with a single configuration, so there is no finish, length, or keying choice to specify on the order.
7) Where do full technical specs for the Leviton 55500-PRT come from?
Leviton publishes the technical information sheet for the 55500-PRT, and that document is the reference for complete specifications on the key and its matching key-operated devices. Use it to confirm the key matches the specific switch or receptacle catalog number you have installed.
