QUALTEK part number 739W-X2/45 is a 15A NEMA 5-15R tamper resistant convenience outlet that provides a built-in shutter system which prevents foreign objects from touching electrically live components when they’re inserted into the slots. Plugs can be inserted and removed just as with standard electrical outlets. Device has been designed with a quick snap-in mounting configuration and will work with panel thicknesses from 0.8mm to 2.0mm. Product utilizes the same panel cutout as firm’s 739W-X2/03 NEMA 5-15R outlet, so for existing applications this outlet can drop into place. Insulation displacement connections (IDC) eliminate the need for special tools and it can be used with 14AWG solid copper conductors. Device has a current capacity up to 15A at 125Vac.
