Pass & Seymour 385 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I use a 10-50R receptacle for a new electric range circuit?
Not for new work in most cases. The 385's 10-50R pattern is 3-pole, 3-wire, meaning there is no separate equipment grounding conductor, and current code requires a 4-wire grounded connection (14-50R) for new range and dryer branch circuits. Where the 10-50R still belongs is on existing 3-wire circuits: replacing a failed outlet on legacy range wiring, servicing older equipment that already has a 10-50P cord, and similar repair work. Check what the local AHJ allows before specifying it on a new circuit.
2) Should I use a straight blade 10-50R or a locking receptacle for 50A equipment?
Depends on whether the cord can be pulled out. The 385's straight blade 10-50R plugs and unplugs by hand, which is what you want for a range, a piece of kitchen equipment, or anything rolled out for cleaning and service. If the connection is subject to vibration, tension on the cord, or an accidental disconnect that matters, a twist-lock is the better call, and the Eaton industrial locking receptacle rated 50A, 600V/250V AC/DC is the locking option we carry at the same amperage. The blade patterns are not interchangeable, so the cord cap has to match whichever you pick.
3) Will a 10-50R receptacle work for a 50 amp RV pedestal?
No. RV service at 50A uses a 14-50R, which is 4-wire with a separate ground, and an RV cord will not fit the 385's 3-pole 3-wire 10-50R pattern. Where the 385 does earn its place around a park or campground property is on the maintenance side, feeding legacy 3-wire shop and service equipment on existing circuits. For the pedestal itself, specify a 14-50R.
4) How many conductors do I land on a Pass & Seymour 385, and is one of them a ground?
Three terminals, three conductors: two ungrounded (hot) legs and a neutral. There is no fourth equipment ground terminal, because the 3-pole 3-wire 10-50R arrangement uses the grounded conductor for the 125V leg and, on legacy range circuits, for bonding the appliance frame. Anyone expecting to land a separate green ground on a 50A outlet wants the 4-wire 14-50R instead.
5) I need to replace an old black surface-mount range outlet in a rental unit. Is the Pass & Seymour 385 the same thing?
If what is on the wall now is a surface-mounted 50A outlet with three slots, two angled blades and a straight one, that is a 10-50R and the 385 matches it: same 50A 125/250V rating, same 3-pole 3-wire pattern, same black surface housing. Count the slots before ordering. Four slots means the unit was updated to a 14-50R and the tenant's cord will have four prongs, in which case the 385 is the wrong part.
6) What is the closest 50A alternative to the Pass & Seymour 385 if the equipment cord has a twist-lock plug?
The Pass & Seymour 385 is a 50A 125/250V straight blade device in the 10-50R, 3-pole 3-wire configuration, so it only accepts a matching straight blade 10-50P plug. For a cord that ends in a twist-lock plug, the Eaton 7379 industrial locking receptacle is the 50A device to look at instead, rated 600V/250V AC/DC in a black housing. Match the receptacle to the plug already on the equipment - a locking plug will not enter a 10-50R face, and a 10-50P will not enter a locking face.
7) Can a 20 amp commercial duplex receptacle be used in place of a 10-50R range or welder outlet?
No. The Pass & Seymour 385 is a 50A 125/250V 10-50R device carrying 3 poles and 3 wires, which is what a range, welder, or similar 240V load needs. A 20A 125V duplex such as the Leviton CR20-GY, a commercial specification grade NEMA 5-20R self-grounding outlet, is a 125V general-purpose device on a different blade pattern and a far lower amperage rating. It will not accept a 10-50P plug and cannot carry the load. Amperage and NEMA configuration both have to match the circuit and the plug.
8) Does the Pass & Seymour 385 need a wall box, or does it mount on the surface?
It mounts on the surface. The 385 comes as a self-contained black surface receptacle housing, so it screws to the wall, a stud, a piece of plywood backing, or the face of a panel, and the wiring comes to it in surface conduit or cable. No flush box or cover plate is involved. That is what makes it the usual pick for retrofit and exposed wiring in shops, mechanical rooms, and equipment areas where cutting in a flush box is not practical.
9) How much space does a Pass & Seymour 385 surface receptacle take up on the wall?
The 385 housing measures 5.65 x 2.8 x 2.41 inches. Worth checking against the spot you have in mind, because it stands off the surface a couple of inches and the 10-50P cord cap adds more depth on top of that. Behind a bench or beside a panel, allow room for the plug body and the cord bend.
10) Is a 50A 125/250V receptacle rated for both 120V and 240V loads?
Yes. The 385 carries a 125/250V rating on a 50A, 3-pole 3-wire body, which is the dual-voltage arrangement: hot to hot gives you the 250V leg for the heating element or motor, and hot to neutral gives 125V for controls, a timer, a light, or an accessory receptacle on the equipment. That is why it turns up on ranges and on shop machines that need both in one cord.
11) Is the Pass & Seymour 385 UL Listed?
UL Listed, yes. For a 50A device feeding fixed equipment in a commercial or institutional building, that is the line item an inspector and a facilities spec both look for, and it is what lets the 385 go on a job where listed devices are required throughout.
12) Can I put a GFCI on a 50A 10-50R outlet?
Not with a device like this. The 385 is a plain 50A power receptacle with no built-in protection, so GFCI at that amperage has to come from the breaker in the panel. Receptacle-type GFCIs top out well below 50A, our 20A 125V option being the Leviton SmartlockPro G5362-WTE weather and tamper resistant unit. Same story for AFCI: the Leviton AFTR2-HG is a 20A 125V device, not something that protects a 250V range circuit.
13) I need GFCI protection at the outlet - does the 385 offer that, or is there a different device?
The Pass & Seymour 385 is a UL Listed 50A 125/250V 10-50R surface receptacle with no integral protective function; protection for that circuit is handled upstream at the breaker. When the requirement is GFCI protection built into the device itself, the Leviton G5362-WTE SmartlockPro is a GFCI duplex rated 20A 125V, weather and tamper resistant, in an extra heavy-duty industrial specification grade. It is a 125V device, so it serves the general-purpose receptacles in the same room rather than the 240V equipment outlet.
14) For a healthcare facility, is the 385 the right receptacle or do I need a hospital grade device?
The Pass & Seymour 385 is a 50A 125/250V 10-50R surface receptacle for heavy equipment and appliance connections, and it is not a hospital grade device. Where patient care area rules call for hospital grade, the Leviton 16262-IGG Decora Plus is a hospital grade isolated-ground duplex at 15A/125V, and the Leviton AFTR2-HG is a heavy-duty hospital grade tamper-resistant AFCI duplex at 20A 125V. Those cover the 125V outlets; a 240V equipment connection is a separate device on a separate circuit.
15) Is the Pass & Seymour 385 a duplex outlet or a single?
Single. One 50A 10-50R outlet per housing, which is standard for high-amperage devices, so one piece of equipment per receptacle. If you are looking for a two-outlet device for general 15A or 20A convenience power, that is a different class of product entirely, such as the Leviton CR20-GY commercial grade 20A 5-20R duplex or the Eaton Arrow Hart 15A 125V 5-15R industrial duplex.
16) What should I spec for the standard wall outlets on the same job where the 385 handles the equipment feed?
The Pass & Seymour 385 covers the single high-amperage connection at 50A 125/250V on the 10-50R pattern. The ordinary 125V outlets around it are a separate spec: the Eaton 816W-BOX is a commercial specification grade single receptacle at 15A, the Eaton 5262W Arrow Hart is a heavy-duty industrial specification grade duplex at 15A 125V in gray, and the Eaton 6450W is a heavy-duty industrial specification grade decorator single receptacle accepting #14-10 AWG. Choose among those by grade and by whether the opening needs a single or a duplex face.
