Leviton 689-W – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Leviton 689 recessed duplex receptacle fit a standard single-gang wallbox?
Yes. The 689 is a 1-gang device, so it mounts in a standard single-gang box. The recessed body sets the outlet face back behind the wall plane, which is what you want behind a wall-mounted TV, a hutch, or a headboard where a plug sticking out proud of the wall would keep furniture off the wall.
2) Is the Leviton 689 receptacle rated 15 amp or 20 amp?
15 amp at 125 volts, in the NEMA 5-15R pattern. That means it goes on a 15-amp branch circuit wired with 14 AWG, and it accepts the standard three-prong grounding cord cap found on almost all household and office equipment. It is not a 20-amp device, so do not use it where the drawing calls for a 5-20R T-slot outlet.
3) Can I use the Leviton 689 recessed receptacle in a kitchen or bathroom?
The 689 is a straight grounding-type duplex with no GFCI protection built in, so it belongs only at locations that do not require GFCI. In a kitchen, that rules out the countertop small-appliance receptacles and rules it out entirely in a bathroom. It is fine for a refrigerator wall, a utility room, or a general-purpose circuit where GFCI is not required. If the location does need protection, feed it from an upstream GFCI device or a GFCI breaker.
4) Does the Leviton 689 come in white, or only ivory?
Both. The 689 is stocked in Ivory as model 689-I and in White as 689-W. Those are the two colors offered, so if you are matching a building that has already standardized on white devices and plates, order the 689-W and the color matches the rest of the openings without a plate swap.
5) Is the Leviton 689 receptacle commercial grade or residential grade?
Residential grade. That is the right call for apartment bedrooms, living rooms, hallways, and the back of a TV wall, where the outlet gets plugged and unplugged rarely. For high-cycle or heavy-traffic openings, a lobby, a school corridor, a hospitality room where guests plug in daily, specify a spec-grade or commercial-grade device instead. A property manager standardizing across a portfolio should decide grade by unit traffic, not by finish.
6) Can I swap a standard flush duplex outlet for the Leviton 689 recessed receptacle during a remodel?
Electrically, yes: the 689 is the same 15-amp 125-volt NEMA 5-15R grounding configuration as a standard duplex, on the same single-gang box, so the line, neutral, and ground terminations are what you already have. The difference is depth. A recessed body needs the box space behind it, so check what is in the wall cavity before you commit, especially in an old-work box in a shallow partition.
7) Do I need a wallplate with a recessed duplex receptacle like the Leviton 689?
The 689 is a recessed 1-gang device, so its plug face sits inside the recessed body rather than flush with a conventional flat cover. Order it as the device and confirm the cover arrangement for the recessed body before you close up the wall. Straight-blade cord caps of the 5-15P type plug in normally once installed.
8) Does the Leviton 689 give two outlets or one?
Two. It is a duplex device, two independent receptacles on one 1-gang body, which is why it works for a TV and a soundbar or a lamp and a charger behind the same piece of furniture without a tap or a strip.
