Pass & Seymour 2097 Spec-Grade 20A Self-Test Duplex GFCI Receptacle

The Pass & Seymour Spec-Grade 20A Self-Test Duplex GFCI Receptacle delivers automatic ground-fault protection with a self-test cycle that runs every three seconds, so the device is always verified ready to protect. Rated 20A at 125VAC (102-132VAC supply range), 60 Hz, this Class A GFCI meets the NEMA 5-20R configuration and is cULus Listed to UL498, exceeding UL 943 voltage surge requirements. Built-in SafeLock™ Protection cuts power to the receptacle if critical components are damaged and protection is lost, and the feed-thru design protects downstream receptacles from the same fault. This device is available in Brown and Light Almond to match a range of installation environments, with all electrical and performance specifications identical across both color options.

Key Features

  • Self-Test Monitoring: Conducts an automatic test every three seconds; a flashing indicator light signals the GFCI should be replaced if it fails the test.
  • SafeLock™ Protection: Disconnects power to the receptacle if critical components are damaged and protection is lost.
  • 20A Feed-Thru Capacity: Supply Voltage 125VAC, 60 Hz (102-132VAC range), protecting downstream receptacles when wired feed-thru.
  • Fast Trip Response: Trip Time of 0.025 sec. nominal per UL Standard, with a Trip Threshold of 5 +/- 1 mA.
  • 10kA Short Circuit Rating: Class A rated GFCI for reliable fault protection.
  • Easy Wiring: Ground screw with back-wire clamp, two back-wire holes per terminal, and side or internal screw-pressure-plate back wire accepting #10-#14 AWG solid or stranded copper wire; captive mounting screws in the device and wall plate.
  • Miswire Protection: Prevents line-load reversal miswire, cutting power to the face and downstream receptacles if wired incorrectly.
  • Durable Construction: High-impact-resistant thermoplastic housing with an Auto-Ground clip for positive ground to a metal box, dual-direction test and reset buttons, and an extra-long strap.

Pass & Seymour 2097 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the 2097 GFCI protect the other outlets downstream on the same circuit?
Yes, when you wire it feed-thru. The 2097 has 20A feed-thru capacity, so downstream receptacles on the load side are protected from the same fault. It also has miswire protection: if line and load are reversed, power is cut to the face and the downstream receptacles until it is wired correctly.
2) What wire size and terminal types does the Pass & Seymour 2097 accept?
It takes #10 through #14 AWG solid or stranded copper. You can land conductors on the side screws, use the internal screw-pressure-plate back wire (two back-wire holes per terminal), and the ground screw has a back-wire clamp. There is also an Auto-Ground clip for a positive ground when it is mounted in a metal box, so you do not need a separate bonding jumper to the box.
3) Can I put a 20A GFCI like the 2097 on a 15A circuit?
The 2097 is a 20A, 125VAC device with a NEMA 5-20R face (the T-slot neutral). On a 15A branch circuit a 5-20R face would let someone plug in a 20A cord cap on an undersized circuit, so a 15A GFCI is the correct choice there. For 15A work, the Leviton SmartlockPro self-test GFCI is a 15-amp 125-volt commercial-grade duplex, and the Bryant GFRSTW self-test is listed 15A-20A.
4) Is the Pass & Seymour 2097 UL Listed for commercial spec work?
It is cULus Listed to UL498 and FSUL Listed to Federal Specification WC596, which is what a government or institutional spec typically calls for. It is a Class A GFCI, meets 2015 UL requirements, and exceeds UL 943 voltage surge requirements, surviving 100 times the required 3kA/6kV test cycles. Short circuit rating is 10kA.
5) The 2097 is not tamper-resistant. What should I use where TR receptacles are required?
Use a tamper-resistant GFCI instead. The Bryant GFRTR20W is a tamper-resistant GFCI receptacle rated 20A/125V, matching the 20A, 125VAC rating of the Pass & Seymour 2097, and the Bryant HUBGFRTRW is a commercial tamper-resistant GFCI receptacle at 125VAC covering 15A-20A. Dwelling-unit areas that call for tamper-resistant devices need one of those; the 2097 is a standard-face spec-grade GFCI.
6) For an outdoor damp or wet location, is the 2097 the right GFCI or is there a weather-resistant option?
For exterior openings, the Bryant HUBGFRTWBLK is a tamper- and weather-resistant commercial-grade GFCI receptacle at 125VAC in black, which is the device built for weather-resistant duty. The Pass & Seymour 2097 is a spec-grade 20A, 125VAC self-test GFCI in Brown or Light Almond and is commonly used for kitchen, bathroom and outdoor wet-location receptacles when installed in a suitable enclosure.
7) Does the 2097 satisfy a hospital-grade requirement, or do I need a different receptacle?
For patient care areas specified hospital grade, use a hospital-grade device: the Leviton GFNT1-HG is a hospital grade GFCI receptacle, and the GFNT1-HGI is the hospital grade GFCI receptacle in ivory. The Pass & Seymour 2097 is a spec-grade 20A, 125VAC self-test GFCI and is cULus listed, which suits commercial and residential branch circuits but is a different grade classification than those hospital-grade Leviton devices.
8) What is the closest self-test 20A GFCI equivalent to the Pass & Seymour 2097 from another brand?
The Bryant GFRSTW is a commercial-grade self-test GFCI receptacle covering 15A-20A, which puts it in the same self-test duplex GFCI role as the Pass & Seymour 2097, a 20A, 125VAC duplex GFCI receptacle. The 2097 is offered in Brown and Light Almond; the GFRSTW is a white device, so if the faceplate color has to match surrounding brown or light almond devices, the 2097 is the one that carries those colors.
9) Can I use a Leviton GFNT1 in place of the Pass & Seymour 2097?
Only if the circuit allows a 15A device. The Leviton SmartlockPro GFNT1 is a self-test GFCI duplex receptacle rated 15-amp, 125-volt and non-tamper-resistant in white, while the Pass & Seymour 2097 is rated 20A at 125VAC. On a 20A branch circuit requiring a 20A receptacle face, the GFNT1 is not an equivalent; both are self-test duplex GFCIs, so for 15A applications the GFNT1 covers the same function.
10) Does a wall plate come with the Pass & Seymour 2097, or do I order one separately?
A matching TP wall plate ships with the device, colored to match the face in either Brown or Light Almond. Mounting screws are captive in both the device and the plate, so nothing loose to chase in the box.
11) What colors is the Pass & Seymour 2097 GFCI available in, and what are the part numbers?
Two: Brown, ordered as 2097, and Light Almond, ordered as 2097-LA. Electrical and performance specs are identical between them, so the only decision is matching the devices already in the building. If the facility is standardized on white or ivory faces, this is not the match.
12) How do I know when a self-test GFCI like the 2097 needs to be replaced?
The 2097 runs an automatic internal test every three seconds. If it fails that test, the indicator light flashes to tell you the device should be replaced. Separately, SafeLock Protection cuts power to the receptacle outright if critical components are damaged and ground-fault protection is lost, so a dead outlet is itself the signal. For maintenance crews this means you can walk a building and read status off the face rather than pressing test buttons on every device.
13) I need GFCI protection on a DIN rail panel rather than a wall box. Is the 2097 suitable?
No. The Pass & Seymour 2097 is a duplex GFCI receptacle built for box mounting, with captive mounting screws and an Auto-Ground clip for a metal box. For a DIN rail installation, the Leviton GFNT1-DIN is the GFCI duplex receptacle outlet in that series intended for DIN mounting.
14) What is the difference between a commercial-grade GFCI like the Bryant GFRSTW and the spec-grade Pass & Seymour 2097?
The Bryant GFRSTW is classified commercial grade and covers 15A-20A with self-test. The Pass & Seymour 2097 is a spec-grade device rated 20A at 125VAC with self-test every three seconds, SafeLock protection that cuts power if protection is lost, miswire protection against line-load reversal, a 10kA short circuit rating, and FSUL listing to Federal Specification WC596. If your submittal calls out a federal spec or a specific short circuit rating, those are the 2097 details to check against.
15) What are the trip threshold and trip time on this Class A GFCI?
Trip threshold is 5 +/- 1 mA with a nominal trip time of 0.025 seconds per UL standard, which is the Class A personnel-protection level required for kitchen, bath, and wet-location receptacles. Supply range is 102-132VAC at 60 Hz.
16) Will the 2097 fit a shallow or crowded outlet box?
The housing is high-impact-resistant thermoplastic with an extra-long strap, and the test and reset buttons work in either direction, so orientation in the box is not a constraint. Back-wire pressure plates let you land conductors straight in rather than looping them around side screws, which saves depth in a tight box.
