Leviton Tamper-Resistant GFCI Receptacle in Black — UL Listed for US Residential Electrical Code Compliance, Drop-in NEC-Standard Wiring

Leviton is a tamper-resistant gfci receptacle finished in Black, a US residential electrical device manufactured by Leviton — the largest privately-held US electrical-device manufacturer (founded 1906, headquartered in Melville, New York). This GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) receptacle continuously monitors current flow between hot and neutral conductors; when an imbalance of 4–6 milliamps is detected (the threshold indicating a fault path through a person or to ground), the device trips within approximately 25 milliseconds. GFCI receptacles are mandated by the National Electrical Code (NEC) for installation in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, basements, outdoor locations, and any other wet or damp residential location — see NEC Article 210.8 for the full code-required install list. The Tamper-Resistant (TR) shutter mechanism meets NEC 406.12 requirements for dwelling-unit receptacles, automatically blocking foreign objects from being inserted into the receptacle slots. The device is UL Listed — independently safety-tested to applicable US electrical-equipment standards — and is covered by the Leviton manufacturer's warranty terms as published on the product label. Part of the broader Leviton residential / commercial / industrial product family, designed to coordinate with Leviton switches, dimmers, receptacles, wallplates, and combination devices across matching color and form-factor lines.
