Straight Blade Receptacle 5-20R
The Bryant 5362BN is a 20 A, 125 V AC duplex receptacle built for flush mounting in standard electrical boxes. It suits residential, commercial and light-industrial wiring where a grounded 5-20R outlet is required. The brown composite housing is corrosion resistant and CSA certified to C 22.2, meeting federal specification W-C-596 and NEMA WD-6.
Flush Mount Single Gang Wiring Device
This single-gang device fits a standard flush box and provides two poles with three wires for a polarised, grounded connection. No cover is included, allowing the installer to select a wall plate that matches the project. The straight-blade orientation simplifies cord routing in tight enclosures. It frees the builder from sourcing separate GFCI modules when ground-fault protection is handled upstream.
Sustained Load Corrosion Resistant Housing
Under continuous 20 A loading the thermoplastic composite body maintains structural integrity and resists corrosion in damp or chemical environments. The UL E2186 listing confirms compliance for prolonged operation at rated current. Installers who need a GFCI integral to the receptacle or a weather-resistant cover for outdoor use must select a different device.

Questions about this item
How much continuous current can the 5-20R receptacle handle before it becomes the limiting factor?
The receptacle is rated for 20 A continuous current at 125 V AC, so the 20 A rating is the first limit you reach under sustained load.
Does the composite thermoplastic housing stay cool and quiet during all-day operation?
The device has no moving parts or active cooling; it runs silently and the corrosion-resistant composite housing dissipates normal heat without temperature rise concerns.
Which electrical box and wiring must already be in place for this flush-mount duplex receptacle?
You need a standard single-gang flush box, 125 V single-phase supply with hot, neutral and ground conductors, and a cover plate for the 5-20R duplex opening.
