Industrial Twist-Lock Receptacle 20A 125V

This NEMA L5-20R female receptacle provides a secure locking connection for 20-amp 125-volt circuits. The twist-to-lock mechanism prevents accidental disconnection on generators, workshop tools and industrial extension cords. ETL certification confirms compliance with US and Canadian safety standards. Yellow UL94-V0 nylon housing resists fire and impact in demanding environments.

NEMA L5-20R Locking Configuration

The single specification that determines fit is the NEMA L5-20R twist-lock interface, which mates only with a matching L5-20P male plug. Standard straight-blade plugs will not engage, so verify the plug on your cord or equipment before purchase. The receptacle is rated for 20 amps at 125 volts with 2-pole 3-wire grounding. L/N/G terminals are clearly marked for error-free wiring.

For Cord Repair and Custom Builds

Suits electricians, contractors and DIY users rewiring 10 to 18 AWG SJT or STW three-conductor cords for generators, construction gear or heavy-duty extension leads. The split screw-fixed housing and built-in strain relief allow tool-free assembly. Not for buyers needing a straight-blade outlet, a higher voltage rating or a non-locking connector.

Questions about this item

What does the 20 A 125 V rating mean when the receptacle is wired into a generator cord?

It means the receptacle can continuously carry up to 20 amps at 125 volts, matching the output of standard portable generators and heavy-duty workshop circuits without overheating.

How does the NEMA L5-20R twist-lock interface prevent accidental disconnection compared with a straight-blade plug?

The locking blades rotate into the matching L5-20P plug, creating a mechanical lock that resists vibration and pulling forces common on job-site extension cords.

What cord sizes and types can be terminated in the screw-fixed housing?

The housing accepts 10 to 18 AWG three-conductor SJT or STW cords, and the built-in strain relief clamps the jacket securely.
