Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR Trademaster Weather-Resistant 15A Self-Test Duplex GFCI Receptacle

The Pass & Seymour Trademaster®/Spec-Grade Weather-Resistant 15A Self-Test Duplex GFCI Receptacle delivers Class A ground-fault protection in a durable, high-impact-resistant thermoplastic housing rated 125VAC, 15A with a 102-132 VAC supply range. Built to the NEMA 5-15R configuration and listed to the Weather-Resistant supplement of UL498, this GFCI automatically self-tests every three seconds and backs up performance with the proven SafeLock™ Protection feature. It meets National Electrical Code® Weather-Resistant and Tamper-Resistant requirements and is available in two color options — Brown and Ivory — to match a range of finish preferences across residential and commercial installations.

Key Features

  • Self-Test Technology: Conducts an automatic test every three seconds; the indicator light flashes if the GFCI fails and needs replacement.
  • SafeLock™ Protection: If critical components are damaged and protection is lost, power to the receptacle is automatically disconnected.
  • Fast Trip Time: Trip Time of 0.025 sec., nominal per UL Standard, with a Trip Threshold of 5 +/- 1 mA and Class A rated GFCI protection.
  • 10kA Short Circuit Rating: Rated for demanding fault-current conditions.
  • Feed-Thru Wiring: 20 Amp feed-thru capacity allows the GFCI to protect downstream receptacles.
  • Weather-Resistant & Tamper-Resistant: Meets National Electrical Code® requirements, including UV exposure, cold impact, and accelerated aging tests.
  • Durable Construction: High-impact-resistant thermoplastic housing with an extra-long strap and Auto-Ground clip.
  • Flexible Back-Wire: Screw-pressure-plate back wire accepts #10-#14 AWG solid or stranded copper wire.
  • Supply Voltage: 125VAC, 60 Hz, Supply Voltage Range 102-132 VAC, 15A rated.
  • Miswire Protection: Prevents line-load reversal miswire, so there is no power to the face or downstream receptacles if wired incorrectly.
  • Color Options: Available in Brown or Ivory to suit device and wallplate color schemes.

Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWRI – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR GFCI be used outdoors in a wet location?
Yes. The 1597-TRWR is listed to the Weather-Resistant supplement of UL498 and meets the National Electrical Code Weather-Resistant requirements, which covers UV exposure, cold impact and accelerated aging. That makes it the correct device for outdoor and damp-location receptacles, as long as it is installed in a weatherproof enclosure and cover suited to the location.
2) Is the 1597-TRWR tamper-resistant, or do I need a separate TR device?
Both are in the one device. The 1597-TRWR meets National Electrical Code Tamper-Resistant requirements as well as the Weather-Resistant requirements, so a single receptacle covers a WR/TR outdoor or garage circuit and a TR dwelling-unit circuit without stacking two products.
3) Will a 15A GFCI like the 1597-TRWR protect a 20A circuit's downstream outlets?
The 1597-TRWR is rated 15A at the face with NEMA 5-15R slots, but it has 20 amp feed-thru capacity, so it can pass a 20A circuit through and GFCI-protect the downstream receptacles on it. The face itself is still a 15A outlet. If you need a 20A face, a 20A device such as the Bryant GFRTR20W (20A/125V) is the one to order.
4) Is the 1597-TRWR GFCI acceptable for a federal or institutional spec job?
It is UL Listed and cULus Listed, compliant with Federal Spec WC596, and built to Trademaster/Spec-Grade construction with Class A ground-fault sensing. Trip threshold is 5 +/- 1 mA with a nominal 0.025 second trip time per UL standard, and it carries a 10kA short circuit rating. Note it is not CSA listed, so a Canadian job relying on CSA marking needs a different device.
5) What is the closest weather-resistant alternative to the Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR GFCI receptacle?
The Bryant HUBGFRTWBLK is the nearest match in intent: it is a tamper- and weather-resistant commercial-grade GFCI receptacle rated 125VAC, the same voltage rating the 1597-TRWR carries. The difference that matters for a finish schedule is color - the Bryant unit is black, while the Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR is offered in Brown and Ivory.
6) We need a hospital grade GFCI for a patient care area - does the 1597-TRWR qualify?
The 1597-TRWR is a Trademaster/Spec-Grade weather- and tamper-resistant device. Where a hospital grade GFCI is specified, the Leviton GFNT1-HG is a hospital grade GFCI receptacle, and the GFNT1-HGI is the same hospital grade device in ivory, which lines up with the Ivory option on the Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWRI if you are matching device color across a corridor.
7) I need a 20A GFCI instead of a 15A - what should I order?
The Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR is a 15A device in the NEMA 5-15R configuration, so it will not serve an opening that calls for a 20A face. The Bryant GFRTR20W is a tamper-resistant GFCI receptacle rated 20A/125V. Bryant also offers the HUBGFRTRW commercial-grade tamper-resistant GFCI at 125VAC covering 15A-20A.
8) Is the Leviton SmartlockPro self-test GFCI a substitute for the 1597-TRWR?
Only on dry interior circuits. The Leviton SmartlockPro Self-Test GFCI duplex receptacle is 15-amp 125-volt and self-testing like the Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR, but it is the non-tamper-resistant version in white. The 1597-TRWR meets National Electrical Code weather-resistant and tamper-resistant requirements and is listed to the weather-resistant supplement of UL498, so for an outdoor or damp-location receptacle the Leviton GFNT1 is not an equal swap.
9) What wire size does the back-wire terminal on the 1597-TRWR take?
The screw-pressure-plate back wire accepts #10 through #14 AWG solid or stranded copper. That means you can back-wire a 12 AWG home run on a 20A feed-thru circuit as well as standard 14 AWG. It also has an extra-long strap and an Auto-Ground clip for grounding through the yoke to a grounded metal box.
10) What happens if I wire the line and load backwards on this GFCI?
Nothing energizes. The 1597-TRWR has miswire protection that prevents line-load reversal, so if it is wired wrong there is no power at the face or at any downstream receptacles. On top of that, SafeLock Protection disconnects power to the receptacle if critical internal components are damaged and ground-fault protection is lost.
11) How do I know when a self-test GFCI like the 1597-TRWR has failed?
It tests itself every three seconds, and the indicator light flashes when the GFCI has failed and needs replacement. For a property manager with a lot of exterior outlets, that means a walk-by visual check rather than pressing the test button on every device.
12) I only need interior GFCI protection, not weather-resistant. Is there a cheaper non-WR option?
If the opening is dry interior and tamper resistance is not required by code, the Leviton SmartlockPro Self-Test GFCI duplex, 15A 125V non-tamper-resistant in white, is the commercial-grade device to look at. Choose the 1597-TRWR when the circuit is outdoor, damp, or needs both WR and TR compliance in one device. The Bryant HUBGFRTRW is a commercial tamper-resistant 125VAC GFCI if you need TR without WR.
13) What is the difference between the 1597-TRWR and a commercial-grade self-test GFCI like the Bryant GFRSTW?
The Bryant GFRSTW is a commercial-grade self-test GFCI receptacle covering 15A-20A, so one catalog number spans both amperages. The Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR is fixed at 15A in NEMA 5-15R and adds the weather-resistant and tamper-resistant construction the Bryant GFRSTW does not carry in its description, which is the deciding factor on exterior and damp-location work.
14) Can I use the 1597-TRWR for DIN rail mounting in a control panel?
No - the Pass & Seymour 1597-TRWR is a standard strap-mounted duplex device for a wall box, with an extra-long strap and Auto-Ground clip. For a panel or enclosure application, the Leviton GFNT1-DIN is the GFCI duplex receptacle outlet built on the GFNT1 series for that mounting method.
15) Will the 1597-TRWR still hold in at low line voltage on a long outdoor run?
It is rated 125VAC, 60 Hz with a supply voltage range of 102 to 132 VAC, so it tolerates the sag you see at the end of a long exterior branch circuit as well as high-side utility swings. The housing is high-impact-resistant thermoplastic.
