Flanged receptacle for commercial use
The Bryant 5479 is a straight-blade flanged receptacle rated at 20 A and 250 V AC for single-phase commercial installations. It accepts a 6-20R plug configuration with two poles and three wires. The nylon body is corrosion-resistant and mounts to a panel using back and side wiring. No tamper-resistant or weather-resistant features are included.
Sustained load behaviour
Rated for continuous operation at 20 A and up to 1 hp at 250 V AC, the contacts are sized for steady commercial loads rather than momentary peaks. The nylon housing resists heat and corrosion during extended duty cycles. No surge suppression or power indicator is fitted, so monitoring and protection must be provided elsewhere in the circuit.
Interface limits
The 6-20R interface is defined for 20 A at 250 V AC single-phase service with two poles and three wires. It does not support tamper-resistant shutters or weatherproof sealing. Back and side wiring accepts standard commercial conductors, but the receptacle provides no surge suppression or status indication. Phase and voltage must match the supply exactly.

Questions about this item
Does the 20 A 250 V receptacle generate noticeable heat when powering a continuous load all day?
The Bryant 5479 is rated for 20 A at 250 V AC and uses a nylon body that resists corrosion; normal operation at or below its rated current should not produce excessive heat.
What wiring method and panel cut-out must I already have to install this flanged receptacle?
The device accepts back and side wiring and mounts in a standard panel opening for a single 6-20R outlet.
Can I keep my existing 1 hp 250 V motor connected to this 6-20R receptacle without changing the plug?
Yes, the receptacle is rated for 1 hp at 250 V AC, matching the motor's rating, so the existing plug will work directly.
