The Leviton CR20-E Commercial Specification Grade Duplex Receptacle is a heavy-duty, narrow body, impact-resistant straight blade device engineered for demanding commercial and light-industrial electrical work. Rated 20A at 125V with a NEMA 5-20R configuration, it delivers dependable plug-and-connect performance while its slimmer profile simplifies installation in crowded, multi-gang device boxes. Built to commercial specification grade standards in Black, this receptacle is designed for consistent, long-term service well beyond residential-grade hardware.

Leviton CR20-E – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Leviton CR20 receptacle accept both 15A and 20A plugs?
Yes. The CR20 is a NEMA 5-20R duplex rated 20A at 125V, and a 5-20R face takes both the standard straight-blade 15A cord cap and the 20A plug with the sideways neutral blade. That is why it is the device to use on a dedicated 20A branch circuit feeding copiers, coffee equipment, or shop tools.
2) Is the Leviton CR20 good enough for a commercial office, or do I need a hospital grade outlet?
The CR20 is built to specification grade, a step above residential-grade devices and intended for commercial and light-industrial work. That covers offices, retail, schools, and general MRO replacement. It is not a hospital grade device, so for patient care areas where hospital grade is required by the facility spec, choose a device marked for that instead.
3) Can I use the CR20 on a 15 amp circuit?
No. A 20A 5-20R receptacle belongs on a 20A branch circuit protected at 20 amps with 12 AWG conductors. Putting a 5-20R face on a 15A circuit invites someone to plug in a 20A load the wiring cannot carry. If the circuit is 15A, use a 15A 5-15R device.
4) What colors does the Leviton CR20 commercial receptacle come in?
Four: Black (CR20-E), Ivory (CR20-I), Light Almond (CR20-T), and White (CR20-W). All four are the same 20A, 125V 5-20R device, so you can standardize a building on one catalog number and just change the suffix to match existing wallplates floor by floor.
5) Will a narrow body receptacle fit better in a crowded 4-gang box?
That is the point of the CR20's narrow body. The slimmer profile gives you more room to fold conductors and seat the strap in multi-gang boxes where standard-body devices crowd each other. Handy on retrofit work where the existing box depth and fill are fixed.
6) Will this replace the beat-up outlets in a high-traffic breakroom or corridor?
Yes, as a straight swap on any existing 20A, 125V duplex opening. The CR20 uses an impact-resistant housing and reinforced construction aimed at frequent plug-in cycles, which is the failure mode on breakroom and corridor outlets. Match the color to the plates already on the wall: Ivory CR20-I, White CR20-W, Light Almond CR20-T, or Black CR20-E.
7) Is the Leviton CR20 tamper resistant or weather resistant?
The CR20 is a standard straight blade commercial duplex, not a tamper-resistant or weather-resistant device. For areas where TR is required, such as schools, child care, and dwelling units, or for damp and wet outdoor locations needing WR plus an in-use cover, specify a receptacle marked TR or WR instead.
