Leviton

About Leviton

Leviton is a privately held American manufacturer of electrical wiring devices, lighting controls, network connectivity products, and energy metering equipment. The company was founded in 1906 and is headquartered in Melville, New York. Its catalog spans residential, commercial, and industrial device grades, and includes the Decora rocker-style line, Lev-Lok modular wiring devices, and Renu interchangeable-face devices.

Two unrelated things share the Leviton name in search results: antique brass lamps sold by collectors, and a law firm. This page covers Leviton Manufacturing, the electrical device maker, only.

Leviton receptacles and outlets

Receptacles are the largest part of this catalog, at more than 1,300 items. The range covers straight blade and locking configurations, hospital grade and isolated ground devices, industrial single pin devices, and the Rhino Hide industrial series. Match 4 things when you specify a receptacle:

• Confirm the NEMA configuration against the equipment plug.
• Read the amperage and voltage rating from the product page, not from a similar catalog number.
• Select the grade the installation requires, which is residential, commercial, hospital, or industrial.
• Match the color or finish to the existing devices on the job.

Leviton GFCI receptacles

A GFCI receptacle is a ground fault circuit interrupter, a device that opens the circuit when it detects current leaking to ground. Lumera stocks more than 240 Leviton GFCI receptacles. Amperage rating, tamper resistant and weather resistant designation, and self-test function all vary by catalog number, so read them from the individual product page before you order.

Leviton plugs, connectors, and pin and sleeve devices

Plugs and connectors are the cord-mounted half of a wiring device pair, and Lumera stocks more than 600 of them alongside more than 160 pin and sleeve devices. Pin and sleeve devices are the watertight, color-coded connectors specified where a standard receptacle will not survive the environment, such as processing plants, data centers, marinas, and outdoor power distribution. This part of the range is where a distributor catalog earns its place, because these catalog numbers rarely appear on retail shelves.

Leviton Lev-Lok modular wiring devices

Lev-Lok is Leviton's modular wiring system, and Lumera stocks close to 600 Lev-Lok devices. A Lev-Lok installation separates the device from its wiring module, so conductors terminate once at rough-in and the device snaps on at trim-out. Contractors specify Lev-Lok on commercial jobs where rough-in and trim-out are months apart, and where a damaged device gets swapped without touching the wiring.

Leviton switches, Decora devices, and Renu devices

These 3 lines cover the control and finish side of the catalog, at 120 switches, nearly 100 Decora devices, and more than 140 Renu devices. Decora is Leviton's rocker-style form factor, which replaced the toggle as the standard shape for modern device plates. Renu devices use interchangeable snap-on color faces, so the finish changes without rewiring the device.

A small number of Leviton smart and Z-Wave devices appear in this collection. Confirm hub, app, and voice assistant compatibility on the individual product page before you specify one, because compatibility varies by catalog number.

Leviton weatherproof devices and network jacks

Weatherproof devices and network jacks extend the range past standard wiring, at more than 80 weatherproof devices and more than 70 network jacks. Weatherproof devices are the covers and enclosures that keep outdoor and wash-down receptacles sealed. Network jacks are the structured cabling inserts that land copper data drops in the same wall plate opening as a receptacle, which is why they get specified alongside wiring devices rather than separately.

How to choose Leviton devices

5 decisions set the right Leviton device.

1. Confirm the configuration. Match the NEMA pattern or jack type to the equipment it serves.
2. Match the grade. Residential, commercial, hospital, and industrial grades differ in construction and in what the specification permits.
3. Read the electrical ratings from the product page. Amperage, voltage, and listing marks vary between catalog numbers that look nearly identical.
4. Decide modular or standard. Lev-Lok suits phased commercial work, and standard devices suit single-visit installations.
5. Match the finish. Confirm the color code against the devices already installed on the job.

Use a licensed electrician for line voltage work, panel work, and any circuit modification. Device replacement follows local code and permitting requirements.

Leviton FAQs

What does Leviton make?
Leviton manufactures electrical wiring devices, lighting controls, network connectivity products, load centers and circuit breakers, EV charging equipment, and energy submetering products. The wiring device range is the largest part of the catalog stocked here.

What is the difference between a Leviton receptacle and a Leviton GFCI receptacle?
A standard receptacle supplies power. A GFCI receptacle supplies power and opens the circuit when it detects current leaking to ground, which is why code requires GFCI protection in wet and outdoor locations.

What is Lev-Lok?
Lev-Lok is Leviton's modular wiring device system. The wiring module terminates the conductors and the device attaches to it, so devices get installed or replaced without re-terminating wire.

What is a pin and sleeve device used for?
Pin and sleeve devices connect equipment in harsh and wet environments where standard receptacles fail. They are color-coded by voltage and used in industrial plants, marinas, data centers, and outdoor power distribution.

What is Leviton Renu?
Renu is Leviton's line of devices with interchangeable snap-on color faces. The face changes to match a new finish without replacing or rewiring the device underneath.

Does Lumera Electric stock genuine Leviton?
Yes. Every Leviton product listed here is genuine Leviton, sourced through the distribution channel. Use the Request a Quote option on any product for project and volume pricing.
