Leviton 8280-R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Leviton 8280-R replace a standard 15A duplex outlet in an existing box?
Yes. The 8280-R is a duplex receptacle rated 15A at 120V, so it drops into the same spot as a conventional 15A/120V duplex outlet on a standard single-phase branch circuit. The difference is the surge suppression built into the device, so protection sits at the point of use instead of on a plug strip.
2) Will a Leviton 8280-R surge receptacle work on a 20 amp circuit or a 240 volt circuit?
The 8280-R is a 15A, 120V device. It can be fed from a 20A, 120V branch circuit the way any 15A duplex receptacle is, but it is not a 20A-rated device and it must not be used on 240V. For a 240V outlet or a true 20A-rated face, you need a different receptacle.
3) Does the Leviton 8280-R provide GFCI or AFCI protection?
No. The 8280-R is a surge suppressor receptacle only, built to shunt transient voltage spikes off the line. It does not provide ground fault or arc fault protection, so anywhere the code requires GFCI or AFCI, that protection has to come from a GFCI receptacle or a breaker upstream.
4) Is a surge suppressor receptacle like the 8280-R worth using instead of a plug-in surge strip at workstations?
They solve the problem at different points. The 8280-R puts suppression inside the wall device, so every load plugged into that opening is covered and there is no strip to be unplugged, overloaded, or walked off with. It is wired in like any 15A/120V duplex receptacle, which makes it practical for offices, workstations, and tenant spaces where you want protection standardized across openings. A plug strip is still the better choice when you need more than two outlets or want portable protection.
5) What is the Leviton part number to order for this surge protective duplex outlet?
Order it as Leviton 8280-R. That is the manufacturer part number for the 15A, 120V surge suppressor duplex receptacle, and it is the only model this device is sold under.
