Looks like a neat product - but wondering if I can replace the GFCI outlet in my garage with this one and swap out the breaker feeding that GFCI outlet with the breaker shown at 3:10 into the video? Would appreciate a link to that breaker (I believe our panel and sub-panel are manufactured by Square-D ). Thanks for another quick and informative video.👍

@scottapt5291 Год назад

SqD makes two series residential panels, QO and Home Line. QO is a 3/4" thick breaker and HL is 1" thick. You need to purchase the correct GFCI breaker for your series. Also, 15a for 14 guage or 20a for 12 guage wire.

@shawnshurtz9147 Год назад

If you use those adapters correctly and remove the cover plate and install them with a screw like you're supposed to they work perfectly. Also what do you mean heavy duty use you should never pull more than 20 amps from a wall receptacles if theare rated at 20 amps. If it's continuous 17.5 amps.

@danielmilloy7807 Год назад

journeyman electrician here. well done first of all. this is news to me honestly never seen that. most outlets have this hole/notch feature to wrap the wire and get a better termination. its very rare for even trained people to know about it tho. i 1000% remember the moment i was taught, so props on that bit of insight.

I like how you never feed us clickbait. Also I'm an electrician and yup I've never seen one of those before. Definitely going to remember this in case a customer wants a retrofit quad in an area where looks isn't important. Definitely beats ripping out a single gang nail on box out of the wall

That really means a lot. 25 years ago these were all over the place in the hospital I worked at. Really ingenious design. I just remember an electrician there telling me they could slam a cart into them and they would hold up.

@kill-nine Год назад

Kind of clickbaity. The first gang box showed works just fine if you actually install it correctly. You're meant to remove the face plate and use the included center screw to hold it in place.

Sometimes easier said than done. Especially if the nails are outside of the box. You almost always have to do some sheetrock work when pulling out a box. As long as the single gang box is nice and secure, I don't really see a downside to this. On a new install, yeah, I'd just put in a dual gang box.

@brianleeper5737 Год назад

@@andrewt9204 My old house had several plastic boxes that were cracked where the screw holes are. I got really good at getting them out of the wall to replace them with a Smartbox (has screws on the inside for mounting to a stud) without damaging any drywall. Trick is to get the box off the stud by using a prybar between the box and stud and then use needle nose pliers or a screwdriver to push the nails off the box and let them drop behind the wall. Then the box will come right out with no drywall damage at all. It may be necessary to push the box into the wall so the edge clears the drywall before prying.

@1djbecker Год назад

@@brianleeper5737 An echo: a Smartbox (MSB1G and MSB2G) is a superior solution for many 'old work' applications. They can be much sturdier than boxes with wings. Their down-side is that the interior volume is lower and shaped awkwardly. Much like the product in the video, it's a great product to know about even if it's not used everywhere. Unlike the quadruplex, it is about the same price as the big box store product.

I didn't see anything in Leviton's docs, but I wonder if this doesn't add to box fill calcs? You'd think, since it's external/surface, it wouldn't count as a yoke. Either way, I could see this being useful for cramped boxes also. Granted, it's not meant for residential, but even the price doesn't seem that bad when you consider a double recep 4" steel face plate is like $4-$5 now-a-days and 2 high-quality or hospital grade receps are like $10 each.

This looks very useful - one small comment - it looks like you wound the wires counter-clockwise around the screw terminal, so that when you tighten the terminal screw you'll be turning the wire back the other way (clockwise). Wasn't sure if I was seeing it right, but I think that violates Article 110 of the NEC.

@andrewt9204 Год назад

Not a bad idea. If the receptacle was going to be loaded up a lot, I'd feel a tiny bit more comfortable with a good J-hook like this, but a lever connector would make it a lot easier to change in the future when the plugs start wearing out. And without having to shorten the wire.

@Techlifeandmore Год назад

@@andrewt9204 I mean, they could just make versions of the plugs with the lever connectors.

@musiccitymanpresents Год назад

This could have some limited applications, however saying it is better or safer than a power strip that has built in surge protection is unfounded. You also make the assertion that this receptacle is hospital grade, unless "hospital grade" is visible on the back of the receptacle which I did not see on the back during the video, and you did not mention, it is not hospital grade.

@SilverCymbal Год назад

It is without question safer than a power strip. A hardwired connection will always be superior to the plug on plug splitter. You can see the green dot with the designation hospital grade in multiple shots in the video. They also offer this as a heavy duty industrial grade version as well for a little less money. Plug something into this 1 time, you will immediately feel the difference. For every day use these are truly amazing.

@DoingthingswithDAN Год назад

You can use a power adapter/ outlet splitter (like the black one from the beginning of the video) very safely by simply removing the screw from your cover plate and screwing the outlet splitter directly to the wall.

US uses 110V power for most residential circuits. 220V is for high power devices like AC, dryers & stoves. Europe uses 220V for all. 110V is far less dangerous; it won’t kill you, 220V will. Hence a lot of DIYers in the US do 110V electrical work, which is not going to look pro. And the wiring & circuits can be smaller too.

@mp-xt2rg Год назад

@@Bonnev-jt8hl220 circuits would be smaller for the same power delivery. So 120 circuits need to be larger to deliver the same amount of power. Almost everyone in the use has 200amp service. So the total power available is higher than most European homes and businesses for that matter. It's surprising to see houses over the pond that have less electrical capacity than the circuit dedicated to just charging my car. Heck my oven requires 30amps at 240.

Or you could just do it right and install a dual gang box…..

Sure, and buy hospital grade plugs, and enjoy them being loose after a couple of tough plugs here and there and of course cut your wall open, and add 3 more junction wires.

Doing it the traditional way isn't always the only way to do it right. If one doesn't mind the higher cost and surface mount, this is actually a superior design. These aren't some cheap gadget from China, they are high grade outlets from a well known company (Leviton). They currently only sell these in industrial grade and hospital grade.
