Leviton LEV-55 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Leviton LEV-55 lampholder be used outdoors or in a wet location?
Yes. The LEV-55 is a weatherproof medium base lampholder built for exposed, outdoor and wet-location service, which is why it turns up on exterior fixtures, utility and garage lighting, and service area runs. It is a fixture component, so it still needs to be installed in the fitting or enclosure the fixture design calls for.
2) What size lamp base does the Leviton LEV-55 take?
Medium base, the standard screw socket used by common household and commercial incandescent lamps. If the fixture you are replacing uses a mogul base or a candelabra base, the LEV-55 is not the right socket.
3) Will the LEV-55 work as a replacement socket in an existing outdoor fixture?
That is one of its main uses. Leviton lists it for replacing incandescent lamp sockets on existing exterior and utility lighting as well as for new construction and renovation work. The two things to confirm on your fixture are that the lamp is medium base and that the opening accepts this lampholder body.
4) What voltage is the Leviton LEV-55 lampholder rated for?
250V. That covers standard 120V branch-circuit lighting with margin, and it also suits 208V or 240V single-circuit lamp runs you find on commercial exterior and service-area lighting.
5) Is the Leviton LEV-55 a single-circuit or multi-circuit lampholder?
Single circuit. It is wired for one incandescent lamp circuit, so there is no second switched contact for a two-level or three-way lamp. If you need separate switching through the same socket, you want a multi-circuit lampholder instead.
6) Can I put an LED or HID lamp in the Leviton LEV-55 weatherproof socket?
The LEV-55 is built and rated as an incandescent lampholder, not for specialty or HID lamps. Anything screwed into it has to be a medium base lamp within the socket's incandescent rating and within the 250V limit, so for HID or specialty sources use a lampholder specified for that lamp type.
7) What is the Leviton part number for this weatherproof medium base lampholder?
The manufacturer part number is LEV-55, from Leviton. One model covers the line, so there is no finish or configuration option to specify when ordering.
