Leviton 520CV – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What NEMA configurations does the Leviton industrial grade straight blade connector come in?
Two configurations are offered: a 15A NEMA 5-15R version (part 5269-C) and a 20A NEMA 5-20R version (part 520CV). Both are 2-pole, 3-wire grounding devices rated 125V. Pick by the cord cap and circuit you are mating to, since a 5-20R connector will accept both 5-15P and 5-20P plugs while a 5-15R will only accept a 5-15P.
2) Is this Leviton connector the female end for building a cordset or extension cord?
Yes. It is the connector body, the female end you terminate on the load end of a flexible cord for portable cordsets and extension assemblies. You still need a matching straight blade plug for the supply end.
3) Can the Leviton 520CV connector be used outdoors or in a wet location?
The Leviton 520CV is an industrial grade straight blade connector intended for cordset and extension cord assemblies in commercial and industrial installations. For connections that sit in the weather, the Pass & Seymour Turnlok 27W Series 20A watertight connector is rated NEMA 4X/6P, and the Bryant WPC Series is a weatherproof wiring connector fitting. Note the 27W is a Turnlok locking device rather than a straight blade, so cords and equipment plugs must match that configuration.
4) Can I use a 5-20R connector on a 15 amp circuit?
Electrically the 20A 520CV connector is rated at or above a 15A branch circuit at 125V, but a 20A receptacle configuration on a 15A cord or circuit invites someone to plug in a 20A load. If the cord and breaker are 15A, use the 5-15R version (5269-C) instead.
5) Does a 2-pole 3-wire connector give me a ground?
Yes. Two-pole, three-wire means hot and neutral as the two current-carrying poles plus an equipment grounding conductor, so it is a grounding device for standard 125V branch circuit work.
6) Is the Pass & Seymour 27W a direct replacement for the Leviton 520CV 20A connector?
No. Both are 20A connectors, but the Leviton 520CV is a straight blade device in the NEMA 5-20R configuration, while the Pass & Seymour 27W Series is a Turnlok watertight connector rated NEMA 4X/6P. A straight blade 5-20 plug will not mate with a Turnlok body, so swapping one for the other means changing the plug on the cord as well.
7) What is the difference between the Bryant WPC and the Leviton 125V straight blade connector?
The Leviton 520CV/5269-C is a 2-pole 3-wire 125V straight blade cord connector that terminates a portable cordset. The Bryant WPC Series is a weatherproof wiring connector fitting, intended to protect the connection point from moisture rather than to serve as a standard indoor cord end. Choose the Leviton for interior plant and jobsite cord assemblies and the WPC where the connection is exposed.
