Leviton 5801 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Leviton 5801 receptacle accept a standard 20 amp plug and a 15 amp cord cap?
The Leviton 5801 is a NEMA 5-20R configuration rated 20A at 125V, so it takes both the straight-blade 15 amp plug and the 20 amp plug with the T-slot neutral blade. That makes it the right device on a 20 amp branch circuit feeding office equipment, shop tools, or floor cleaners.
2) Is the Leviton 5801 tamper-resistant receptacle suitable for a school or daycare?
Yes. The 5801 has integrated tamper-resistant shutters that block insertion of foreign objects into the slots, which is what code calls for in child-occupied areas like schools and childcare. It's also specification grade with an impact-resistant housing, so it holds up in corridors and classrooms where plugs get yanked.
3) Is the Leviton 5801 a GFCI receptacle?
No. The 5801 is a straight 20A 125V 5-20R duplex receptacle with tamper-resistant shutters, not a GFCI device. For bathrooms, kitchens, rooftops, outdoors, or within six feet of a sink, you need a GFCI receptacle or a GFCI breaker ahead of this one.
4) What does narrow body mean on this Leviton receptacle, and does it help in a multi-gang box?
Narrow body means the device body is slimmer than a standard strap receptacle, so in a three or four gang box you get more room for conductors and the devices don't crowd each other behind the plate. It mounts to a standard duplex wallplate opening either way.
5) What color is the Leviton 5801 and will it match my existing devices?
The 5801 comes in brown only. If your building is standardized on ivory, white, gray, or black devices, this one won't match, and you'd want the same spec grade tamper-resistant device in that color instead. Brown is still common in older commercial and institutional stock, so it's the right pick for matching legacy openings.
6) Is specification grade the same as residential grade, and is it worth it for a commercial building?
No, they're different tiers. Specification grade, which is what the 5801 is, uses heavier contacts and construction for frequent plug-in cycles, where residential grade devices are built for light intermittent use. For offices, healthcare, and school corridors where cords are pulled daily, the spec grade device is the one that survives.
7) Where can I get the full Leviton 5801 spec sheet for a submittal?
