Leviton Tamper Resistant Receptacles (Wall Outlet)
Leviton Tamper Resistant Receptacles (Wall Outlet)
Leviton makes it easy for you to
comply with the 2008 NEC mandate for TR Receptacles in all new residential
housing. This requirement results from a Consumer Product Safety Commission
study† that documented injuries in the home caused each year by children
attempting to insert foreign objects into receptacles. TR receptacles have been
mandated in hospital pediatric wards for over 20 years and have proven to
effectively prevent electrical injuries. As a long-time manufacturer of
tamper-resistant devices, we are pleased to be at the forefront of this safety
measure with an expanded product line that encompasses a wide range of TR
devices in Residential and Commercial Grades.
