Protection that performs when it matters is the core feature of this GFCI receptacle. The ground fault interrupter quickly detects leakage paths and shuts down power, improving occupant safety and reducing the risk of electrical shock in wet or damp areas. This design translates into fewer field failures and lower liability for building operators. Installation flexibility is another key advantage. With back and side wiring and a #14–10 AWG-compatible terminal range, electricians can adapt to existing conduit layouts and finish flush with the wall, speeding project completion and reducing callbacks. Self-test capability is designed to ensure ongoing protection with minimal maintenance. The unit continuously checks circuitry performance, and installers can reference installation instructions for manual testing if required, helping maintain compliance with NEC and local codes. Durability and environmental resilience are built in. Weather resistant and tamper resistant ratings, along with a polycarbonate face and brass contacts, deliver reliable operation in commercial spaces, outdoor-rated enclosures, and residential kitchens. Procurement and compliance advantages also matter. NAFTA compliant and cULus Listed status support cross-border sourcing and regulatory acceptance, while a flush-mount, gray device with a 125 V, 20 A specification aligns with standard electrical design practices and reduces stocking complexity.

FAQs
To install the TWRSGF20FGY, power off the circuit, remove the cover, and prepare conductors for back and side wiring within the #14–10 AWG range. Connect line/load as shown in the wiring diagram, tighten terminals to 16 lbf-in, and mount flush for a neat finish. Use the 5-20R configuration and ensure cULus Listed compliance. Refer to the installation instructions for exact step-by-step guidance.
Yes. The device is weather resistant and tamper resistant, making it suitable for damp or exposed environments common to kitchens, bathrooms, and some commercial spaces. Flush mounting helps minimize water exposure and maintain a clean installation profile inside enclosures, while NAFTA compliance supports cross-border projects.
The receptacle is cULus Listed and NAFTA compliant, which confirms safety and cross-border suitability for North American projects. These certifications support regulatory acceptance, reduce procurement risk, and align with common electrical install standards in both residential and commercial settings.
Match 125 V operation, 20 A rating, NEMA 5-20R configuration, and back-and-side wiring for #14–10 AWG conductors. The device uses brass contacts and a flush mount with a torque rating of 16 lbf-in. It is designed for 2-pole, 3-wire grounding with a gray PVC/polycarbonate body, ensuring reliable performance in standard electrical panels.
The self-test function continually verifies internal circuitry, reducing the need for frequent manual tests and helping maintain NEC compliance with less field effort. This can lower labor costs and callback rates on critical outlets, particularly in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas, while preserving safety for occupants.
