Pass & Seymour 1333 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) I'm replacing a two-prong Despard outlet in an older house. Does the Pass & Seymour 1333 give me a ground?
Yes, it is a 3-wire grounding device, so it has the U-ground slot and a ground terminal. That only helps if there is an equipment ground available in the box. Pulling a 3-wire grounding receptacle onto an ungrounded two-wire circuit and leaving the ground terminal empty is not a compliant installation. Confirm you have a grounding conductor or metal raceway ground at the box before swapping.
2) If I'm not tied to Despard, what standard receptacle should I use instead for a 15A 125V commercial opening?
For a normal single-gang opening with a standard wallplate, go with a conventional straight-blade device. The Eaton Arrow Hart 5262W is an industrial specification grade 15A 125V 5-15R duplex in gray, and the Eaton 816W is a commercial specification grade 15A single receptacle. Both drop into a standard duplex plate; the Despard 1333 will not. Use the 1333 only when you are keeping an existing Despard strap and plate.
3) Can a standard duplex receptacle replace a Pass & Seymour 1333 Despard receptacle?
No. The Pass & Seymour 1333 is a Despard-style 3-wire grounding receptacle rated 15A, built to drop into Despard interchangeable device straps and plates rather than mount on a standard yoke. A full-size device such as the Eaton Arrow Hart heavy-duty industrial duplex receptacle, 15A 125V, 5-15R, or the Eaton commercial specification grade single receptacle rated 15A, mounts to the box with its own strap and needs a conventional duplex or single-device wallplate. If the existing opening uses a Despard plate with one, two, or three openings, the 1333 keeps that assembly intact; the full-size devices require changing the plate and the device mounting.
4) For a patient care area, is the Pass & Seymour 1333 the right receptacle?
The Pass & Seymour 1333 Despard receptacle is UL Listed as a 3-wire grounding 15A device, but hospital grade is a separate designation. Where a facility specifies hospital grade, the Leviton 16262-HGW duplex receptacle is listed as hospital grade and comes in white. Keep the 1333 for general-purpose Despard assemblies and specify the hospital grade device where patient care spaces call for it.
5) I need a 20A receptacle instead of the 15A Despard device - what should I look at?
The Pass & Seymour 1333 Despard receptacle is rated 15A, so it is not the device for a 20A branch circuit requiring a 5-20R face. For 20A, the Leviton Decora Plus commercial grade duplex receptacle is 20A 125V NEMA 5-20R, the Leviton commercial grade heavy-duty straight blade duplex is 20A 125V NEMA 5-20R, and the Bryant 5362B heavy-duty duplex is 20A/125V. All three are full-size devices rather than Despard modules, so the wallplate and device mounting change along with the amperage.
6) Will the 1333 Despard receptacle work in a hazardous or washdown location?
No. The Pass & Seymour 1333 is a UL Listed Despard 3-wire grounding 15A device intended for standard interior device and plate systems. Hazardous locations call for a sealed or explosionproof assembly such as the Appleton FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle or the Appleton U-Line ECS factory-sealed 15 and 20 amp plug and receptacle set, 3-pole. Those are enclosure-based wiring assemblies, not interchangeable devices, so they are specified for the location rather than swapped into an existing Despard plate.
7) Is the Pass & Seymour 1333 Despard receptacle UL Listed for commercial work?
UL Listed, yes. The 1333 is a 15A 3-wire grounding Despard device and is used in both residential and commercial wiring where a Despard plate assembly is in place. For facility standardization on new openings, most spec writers move to a standard duplex grade device rather than Despard.
8) Can I use the Pass & Seymour 1333 on a 20A circuit or for a 20A appliance?
The 1333 is rated 15A. A 15A receptacle is permitted on a 20A branch circuit under the usual multi-outlet rules, but it will not accept a 20A T-slot plug and should not be used where a 20A outlet is specified. For 20A needs, look at a 5-20R device such as the Leviton 16352-1PW commercial grade 20A 125V duplex or the Bryant 5362B heavy-duty 20A/125V duplex.
9) What is a tougher alternative to the brown 1333 Despard receptacle for a shop or back-of-house outlet?
The Pass & Seymour 1333 is a brown Despard 3-wire grounding device rated 15A for general residential and commercial wiring. Where the spec calls for a heavier device grade, the Eaton Arrow Hart duplex and the Eaton decorator single receptacle for #14-10 AWG are both industrial specification grade, the Eaton single receptacle rated 15A is commercial specification grade, and the Leviton impact-resistant straight blade receptacle is commercial grade. Those are all full-size devices, so a Despard plate assembly would have to be replaced to use them.
10) I need more outlets at one box than the 1333 provides - what are my options?
The Pass & Seymour 1333 is a single Despard 3-wire grounding 15A module, and Despard plates accept more than one module in a single opening, so additional 1333 units can be ganged in the same plate. If a full-size device is acceptable instead, the Bryant 21254IGO is a quad straight-blade receptacle, NEMA 5-20R, 20A, which puts four outlets in one device footprint at a higher amperage.
11) Can the 1333 be used on a 277V or 50A circuit?
No. The Pass & Seymour 1333 is a 15A Despard 3-wire grounding receptacle for standard 125V-class general wiring. For higher voltage or current, the Bryant 430R9W is a 2-pole 3-wire 277V motor-duty receptacle, and the Eaton 7379 industrial locking receptacle is rated 50A, 600V/250V AC/DC in black. Those devices use different configurations and are not interchangeable with a Despard module.
12) What color is the 1333 and will it match my existing Despard devices?
Brown. If the switches and pilot lights already in the Despard strap are brown, the 1333 matches. If your building is standardized on ivory or white devices, this one will stand out, so order to match the strap you are filling.
13) How is the 1333 Despard receptacle packaged, and what part number do I order?
Order Pass & Seymour part number 1333. It ships 10 each per pack, which suits a property manager or electrician doing a run of older Despard openings rather than a single swap.
14) The 1333 is brown - what if I need the receptacle to match white or gray devices?
The Pass & Seymour 1333 Despard receptacle is finished in brown for coordinated device and wallplate installations. If the job standard is a lighter device color and a full-size receptacle is acceptable, the Eaton Arrow Hart heavy-duty industrial duplex 15A 125V 5-15R is gray, and the Leviton 16262-HGW duplex and Leviton Decora Plus 20A commercial duplex are white. Switching to those means changing from a Despard plate assembly to a standard device plate.
15) Where is the Pass & Seymour 1333 made, and is there a spec sheet?
Country of origin is Mexico, and Pass & Seymour publishes a PDF spec sheet for the device covering the 15A 3-wire grounding Despard configuration.
