Snapconnect SNAP5362LAA 20A Duplex Modular Receptacle 125VAC 5-20R Light Almond

20A Modular Duplex Receptacle

The Snapconnect SNAP5362LAA is a 20A duplex receptacle rated for 125VAC with a NEMA 5-20R configuration. It is designed for electricians and installers working on modular wiring systems in residential or light commercial projects. The device uses SNAPConnect technology to allow rough-in wiring before the receptacle is attached after wall finishing. Its light almond nylon finish suits standard décor.

20A Capacity and Modular Headroom

Rated for 20 amps at 125 volts, the receptacle comfortably handles standard branch-circuit loads such as kitchen countertop appliances or workshop tools. The modular back-wired connection accepts the SNAPConnect connector, enabling quick device swaps without re-terminating conductors. Headroom ends at the 20A rating; circuits requiring higher amperage or a different voltage class need a different device. The tamper-resistant shutters add a safety layer for general-use areas.

Upgrade from Standard Screw-Terminal Outlets

This receptacle replaces conventional screw-terminal duplex outlets where faster installation or future reconfiguration is valued. The jump is worth it on jobs with repetitive rough-in schedules or where devices may be changed after walls are finished. It does not suit installations that lack the proprietary SNAPConnect connector system or projects specifying non-modular wiring methods. The stainless steel self-grounding staple simplifies grounding in metal boxes.
