Pass & Seymour TR5351-I – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Pass & Seymour TR5351I a single receptacle or a duplex?
The TR5351I is a single receptacle, one 20A 125V outlet per device, not a duplex. If you are replacing a standard two-outlet duplex in a unit, this is not a like-for-like swap. Single receptacles get specified where one dedicated piece of equipment is on the circuit. For a duplex-style 20A alternative, the Bryant 21254IGO is a quad straight-blade NEMA 5-20R device.
2) Does the TR5351I satisfy a tamper-resistant receptacle requirement from the inspector?
Yes. It uses a dual mechanical shutter system that blocks insertion of foreign objects unless both blades enter together, which is what a tamper-resistant call-out on a drawing or in a dwelling-unit inspection is asking for. The device is cULus Listed.
3) Is a spec-grade receptacle like the TR5351I enough for a commercial corridor, or do I need industrial or hospital grade?
Spec-grade is the construction-grade tier, and the TR5351I backs it with .032 inch brass triple-wipe power contacts and a plated steel strap locked into both the face and the back body so the strap resists pulling away under repeated plug cycling. That covers commercial and residential branch-circuit work. Where the specification calls for a heavier tier, Eaton's 6450W is an industrial specification grade single receptacle and the Leviton 2310-IG is an industrial grade impact- and chemical-resistant single. For patient care areas the Eaton 8410W Hart is hospital grade.
4) Can I back-wire the TR5351I or do I have to use the side screws?
Either. The TR5351I is built for back and side wire termination, so you can land conductors through the back wire clamps or wrap the side screws, whichever is faster in the box you are working in. An auto-ground clip handles grounding to a metal box or yoke on every install.
5) Will the TR5351I work for split-circuit wiring on two separate breakers?
Yes. There is a break-off line-contact tab on the device that snaps out with pliers, letting you feed the receptacle from two circuits for split-circuit wiring. The tab is positioned for easy access so you are not fighting it in a crowded box.
6) What size box or plate opening does the TR5351I need?
The device measures 3.28 inches high, 1.38 inches wide and 1.19 inches deep. That is standard strap-mount geometry for a single-gang box, and the 1.19 inch body depth is what to check against shallow boxes or boxes already crowded with #12 conductors.
7) Can I use the TR5351I in an unheated garage, warehouse or exterior enclosure?
Its continuous operating range is -40C to +60C, so cold storage, unheated garages and attic spaces are within rating. It also holds a maximum 30C temperature rise at full rated current after 50 cycles of overload at 150 percent of rating. It is a general-purpose device though, not sealed or explosionproof. For classified locations you want something like the Appleton FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle instead.
8) Can I put the TR5351I on a 15 amp circuit, or does it require a 20 amp breaker?
The device is rated 20A at 125V, which is its maximum, so it can be fed by a 15A branch circuit without issue. What it cannot do is let you run a 20A load on 15A wiring. A 20A receptacle on a 20A breaker needs #12 conductors. If your circuit is 15A and the drawing only calls for a 15A device, Eaton's 817B is a 5-15R commercial specification grade single receptacle.
9) What is a commercial-grade straight blade alternative to the TR5351I for lighter-traffic areas?
The TR5351I is a spec-grade tamper-resistant single receptacle in ivory. Leviton's 16251W is a commercial grade heavy-duty impact-resistant straight blade receptacle, and Bryant's 8350FR is an FR Series single receptacle wiring device. Both are straight blade devices for standard device boxes; the TR5351I adds the dual mechanical shutter tamper-resistant system.
10) Does the ivory TR5351I come in other colors, and will it match existing ivory devices?
TR5351I is the ivory version of the device, so it blends with ivory switches and plates already installed in a unit. The letter suffix on this family designates the color, so order the ivory part number when you are standardizing a building on ivory. If you need the receptacle in a 250V rating instead, the Leviton 16462-W is a 20A 250V 6-20R single in white.
11) What part number do I order for the Pass & Seymour 20A tamper-resistant ivory single receptacle?
Order Pass & Seymour TR5351I, manufacturer part number TR5351-I. It is the 20A, 125V tamper-resistant spec-grade single receptacle in ivory, back and side wire, made in Mexico.
