It is easy to comply with the 2008 NEC mandate for TR Receptacles in all
new residential housing. This requirement resulted from a Consumer
Product Safety Commission study that reported alleged injuries in the
home caused each year by children attempting to insert foreign objects
into receptacles. As a long-time manufacturer of tamper-resistant
devices, we are pleased to be at the forefront of this safety measure
with an expanded product line encompassing a wide range of devices in
residential and commercial grades.
- Shutter
mechanism inside the receptacle blocks access to the contacts unless a
2-prong plug is inserted, helping ensure hairpins, keys, etc., will be
locked out
- TR symbol on residential receptacles assures they meet the 2008 NEC requirement
- Heavy-duty construction offers long, trouble-free service life
- Limited 2-year warranty
- UL and CSA listed
