Bryant SP53IA 5-20R Receptacle
The Bryant SP53IA is a straight-blade duplex receptacle rated 20 A at 125 V AC. It fits a single-gang flush-mount box and uses a 5-20R NEMA configuration with two poles and three wires. The housing is ivory composite and the terminals accept back and side wiring.
Suited for standard 20 A branch circuits
This device suits residential or light-commercial circuits that require a grounded 20 A outlet. It is not GFCI protected, so installers needing ground-fault protection at the device must fit a separate GFCI breaker or receptacle. The composite housing is impact resistant but not rated for wet or damp locations.
Key specification: 5-20R NEMA configuration
The 5-20R configuration determines compatibility with 20 A plugs that have a horizontal neutral blade. Verify that the circuit breaker, wire gauge and intended load all match this 20 A, 125 V AC rating before installation.

Questions about this item
How do I wire the screw terminals on this 5-20R receptacle for back and side entry?
Loosen the terminal screws, insert stripped conductors into the back-wire holes or wrap them clockwise around the side screws, then tighten each screw firmly to secure the 20 A circuit.
What part of this duplex receptacle wears out first and needs replacement?
The composite housing and brass contacts resist impact, but repeated plug cycles eventually fatigue the spring tension, requiring a new 5-20R unit.
At what load does the 20 A rating become the limiting factor during continuous operation?
The 20 A, 125V AC rating is the first limit reached under sustained use; exceeding it trips the upstream breaker.
