P&S PlugTail Wiring Devices Now Include Split Circuit And Tamper-Resistant Receptacles
Pass & Seymour/Legrand (P&S), a leading provider of electrical wiring devices and home systems, announces two of the newest additions to its PlugTail wiring devices – the P&S PlugTail Split Circuit Receptacle and P&S PlugTail Tamper-Resistant Receptacle.
The PlugTail Split Circuit device is a PlugTail duplex receptacle, pre-wired with a welded second hot lead to meet switched receptacle applications that require a fourth wire to the switch. Available in duplex and Decorator styles, the devices accept standard PlugTail connectors.
The PlugTail Tamper-Resistant Receptacle installs like any PlugTail device, but it's designed to meet 2008 National Electrical Code (NEC) child safety requirements. The receptacle's built-in shutter system prevents children from inserting metal objects into the socket and touching electrically live components, but plugs can be inserted and removed as usual.
"With the addition of these two devices, P&S continues to broaden the most complete product offering of factory-terminated devices and connectors, with installation options for all types of commercial facilities," said Scott Bausch, Marketing Manager – Commercial and Industrial Products. "These devices help contractors be more competitive on projects while offering facilities a safer, more convenient solution."
At rough-in simply connect the pre-stripped P&S PlugTail connector leads. It's easier than pigtailing, doesn't require a wire caddy, and the polybag keeps the connector free of dirt, dust and joint compound until trim-out.
At device installation just click in the connector, and tighten the mounting screws. It takes less than a minute – three times faster than a conventional device installation – and the UL-listed connectors are keyed to ensure consistent, reliable connections every time, regardless of the installer's skill level. This saves time at the end of the project, when every minute counts.
The P&S PlugTail wiring device family offers the fastest, most consistent, most reliable installation solutions for hospitals, colleges and universities, offices, retail and entertainment venues, and hospitality and multi-dwelling facilities. The devices meet Federal Specification requirements and are trade agreement compliant.
P&S PlugTail is a patent approved product by Pass & Seymour Legrand.
