Pass & Seymour CR15-GRY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire sizes can I land on the Pass & Seymour CR15 receptacle, and is it back-wire or side-wire?
Side-wire only. The CR15 terminates #14 to #10 AWG solid or stranded copper or copper-clad wire on its side screws. If your rough-in was wired for a back-wire or push-in style device, you will be re-forming hooks on the conductors rather than pushing them straight in.
2) Can I use the CR15 for a split-circuit outlet with one half switched?
Yes. The CR15 has a break-off line-contact connecting tab, so snapping the tab separates the two halves and lets you feed the top and bottom from different circuits or put one half on a switch. The terminal compartments are isolated from each other, which keeps the two sets of conductors contained.
3) Will a 15A receptacle like the CR15 work on a 20-amp branch circuit, or do I need a 20A device?
The CR15 is a 15A 125V device. The NEC permits a 15-amp receptacle on a 20-amp branch circuit when more than one receptacle is on that circuit, but a single receptacle on its own 20-amp circuit must be rated 20 amps, and any appliance needing a 5-20R T-slot will not plug in. For those cases go to a 20A device such as the Leviton 16352 commercial grade 20A 125V NEMA 5-20R, the Leviton 5362-E specification grade 20A 5-20R, or the Eaton BR20W commercial specification grade 20A/125V.
4) Is a commercial spec-grade receptacle worth it over a residential one for apartment turns?
It depends on traffic. The CR15 uses .032 inch thick brass triple-wipe power contacts and a plated steel strap locked into both the nylon face and the thermoplastic back body, which is aimed at openings where plugs get cycled hard and tenants tug cords. For low-use residential bedrooms, a residential-grade device like the Leviton 12650W impact-resistant 15A 125V NEMA 5-15R does the same job at a lighter duty level. In dwelling-unit living areas remember that tamper-resistant receptacles are required by code; the CR15 is not TR, so use something like the Eaton TRBR15W-BXSP tamper-resistant 15A device there.
5) Can I use the Pass & Seymour CR15 in a patient care area of a hospital?
The CR15 is a commercial spec-grade device and is cULus Listed, but it is not a hospital grade receptacle. Where hospital grade is required, the Leviton 8300-IGW is a hospital grade narrow body impact-resistant duplex receptacle. Use the CR15 for commercial and industrial branch circuit work and the hospital grade device where the facility spec calls for it.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Pass & Seymour CR15 from another brand?
The CR15 is a 15A 125V commercial spec-grade duplex receptacle. The closest cross-brand match at the same amperage and grade is the Eaton TRBR15W-BXSP, a 15A commercial specification grade duplex receptacle in white, with the difference that the Eaton is tamper-resistant and the CR15 is a standard side-wire device.
7) I need a 20A receptacle instead of the 15A CR15 - what should I use?
The CR15 is rated 15A at 125V, so it cannot serve a 20A outlet requirement. For 20A at 125V, the Eaton BR20W is a commercial specification grade duplex receptacle in white, and the Leviton 16352 is a commercial grade heavy-duty NEMA 5-20R duplex in gray. For a 20A device at specification grade, the Leviton 5362-E is an extra heavy-duty NEMA 5-20R straight blade duplex.
8) Is there a cheaper 15A duplex receptacle if I do not need spec grade?
Yes. The Pass & Seymour CR15 is built to commercial spec grade with .032 inch brass triple-wipe contacts and a nylon face. For lighter-duty work such as apartment interiors, the Leviton 12650W is a residential grade impact-resistant straight-blade duplex rated 15A 125V, NEMA 5-15R. It covers the same amperage and voltage at residential grade rather than commercial spec grade.
9) Does the CR15 duplex receptacle need a bonding jumper to the metal box?
The CR15 includes an auto-ground clip on the mounting strap, which bonds the device to a grounded metal box through the mounting screw. You still run the equipment grounding conductor to the green terminal as your installation requires, but the clip gives a positive ground path on metal box installs.
10) Will the CR15 hold up in an unheated warehouse or a cold loading dock?
Yes. The CR15 operates continuously from -40C to +50C without impact on performance, and it holds a maximum 30C temperature rise at full rated current after 50 cycles of overload at 150 percent of rated current with direct current. That covers unconditioned storage and dock spaces.
11) Does the CR15 fit a standard single-gang box and wall plate?
The device body measures 2.635 in by 1.322 in by 0.78 in, a standard duplex footprint that takes any standard duplex wall plate and mounts on the usual single-gang box ears. Deep-set boxes or thick plaster rings may still need a box extension, as with any duplex device.
12) What colors does the Pass & Seymour CR15 come in?
Three: the base CR15 in brown, CR15-GRY in gray, and CR15-I in ivory. All three are the same 15A 125V side-wire spec-grade device with a matte finish, so you can standardize the electrical and pick color to match existing plates on the floor.
13) What color options does the CR15 have compared with the cross-brand alternatives?
The CR15 is offered in a standard brown, gray (CR15-GRY), and ivory (CR15-I). Among the comparable devices, the Eaton BR20W and Eaton TRBR15W-BXSP are white, and the Leviton 16352 is gray, so if the job is standardized on white the Eaton devices match that, while the CR15 gray matches a gray device layout.
