What Is a 15A Dual USB-C Receptacle?
A 15A dual USB-C receptacle is a standard indoor wall outlet that combines a 15A, 125V, NEMA 5-15R AC receptacle with two USB-C charging ports. This model includes tamper-resistant shutters, 3.6A shared USB output at 5V DC, and a dry-location indoor design for everyday charging access without plug-in adapters. It is a practical choice for bedrooms, hotel nightstands, dormitories, and multi-family retrofit projects that want to move fully to Type-C charging.
Who Should Use This Model
- Contractors sourcing indoor dual USB-C wall outlet upgrades
- Hospitality buyers upgrading guest room nightstands and bedside charging points
- Property management teams modernizing apartments and multi-unit interiors
- Distributors building out future-forward USB-C receptacle inventory for indoor dry-location projects
When to Choose a Different Model
- Choose a USB GFCI receptacle when the installation location requires ground-fault protection, such as kitchen or bathroom countertop areas
- Choose a USB A/C receptacle when the project still needs legacy USB-A compatibility
- Choose a PD or higher-output USB-C receptacle when the project needs faster charging than a 3.6A shared-output design

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Will the dual USB-C ports charge a laptop or MacBook?
No. While this receptacle features two modern USB Type-C physical ports, the electrical output provides standard 5V DC charging with 3.6A shared total output. It does not support the high-voltage Power Delivery protocols required to charge laptops. It is better suited to smartphones, earbuds, and standard tablets.
Can I install this dual USB-C outlet near a kitchen sink?
No. This is a standard receptacle designed strictly for dry indoor locations and it does not provide GFCI protection. Receptacles near kitchen sinks, bathroom vanities, and similar NEC-covered locations should use a GFCI or USB GFCI model instead of this standard non-GFCI outlet.
How does the 3.6A shared output work with two Type-C devices?
The outlet provides a total maximum output of 3.6A at 5V DC across both USB-C ports. If one device is connected, it can draw up to its normal single-port rate. If two devices are connected at the same time, the internal charging system distributes the 3.6A between both Type-C ports. Actual charging speed depends on each device’s charging behavior.
Why choose a dual USB-C outlet instead of a hybrid USB A/C outlet?
A dual USB-C outlet is a future-forward choice for projects that want to move away from legacy USB-A charging. It is a practical option for new apartments, hotel renovations, and modern interiors where occupants increasingly carry USB-C to USB-C cables.
Are the standard AC slots tamper-resistant?
Yes. The standard 15A NEMA 5-15R AC slots include built-in tamper-resistant shutters that block foreign object insertion. NEC 406.12 requires tamper-resistant construction for covered 15A and 20A nonlocking receptacles in locations such as dwelling units, multi-family residences, hotel guest rooms, and child care facilities.
Does replacing a standard outlet with this dual USB-C receptacle require a new breaker?
No new breaker is required when replacing a standard 15A receptacle on a correctly matched existing circuit. This device installs in a standard single-gang wall box and uses the same 125V AC branch-circuit wiring, although installers should still confirm box space for the device body and conductors.
Is this model weather-resistant?
No. This product is not a WR model and is intended for indoor dry-location use only. It should not be used as an outdoor or wet-location receptacle.
Can two USB-C devices be charged at the same time?
Yes. This model is designed for simultaneous charging through two USB-C ports from the same wall location. The available charging current is shared between the ports up to the 3.6A total output.
