Questions about this item
Does the 20 A straight-blade receptacle run hot when supplying a continuous load all day?
The device is rated for 20 A single-phase service and built to UL 498 and CSA C22.2 No. 42 standards; normal operation at or below its rated current stays within the temperature limits those standards require.
What wiring must already be in place for this flush-mount receptacle to install correctly?
A 3-wire single-phase circuit with a grounded conductor and a standard NEMA 6-20R outlet box is required for the 2-pole, 3-wire configuration.
Will this brown nylon receptacle fit in a metal wall box that previously held an older NEMA device?
Yes — the flush-mount, single-gang housing follows the NEMA WD-6 dimensional standard, so it matches existing boxes cut for that pattern.
