Description
Product Overview
The Leviton SmartlockPro 15A GFCI outlet is engineered to meet the most demanding residential and light‑commercial electrical codes while delivering modern convenience. Constructed from high‑temperature‑rated polymer and reinforced metal contacts, the unit provides a durable, fire‑resistant housing that can withstand daily wear and environmental fluctuations. Its compact dimensions—1.73 x 1.75 x 4.19 inches—allow seamless integration into standard wall boxes without sacrificing performance.
At the heart of the device is a self‑testing ground‑fault circuit interrupter that continuously monitors for leakage currents as low as 4 mA. When a fault is detected, the GFCI trips within milliseconds, cutting power to protect users from electric shock. The built‑in diagnostic LED offers a clear visual cue: a steady green light indicates normal operation, while a flashing amber signals a detected fault or the need for a manual reset.
Complementing the safety features are two high‑powered USB charging ports that together supply up to 4.8 A of current. Leveraging smart chip technology, each port automatically identifies the connected device and adjusts voltage to deliver the fastest, most efficient charge possible. This dual‑port design eliminates the need for separate chargers, reducing clutter and keeping workspaces tidy.
Compliance is a cornerstone of the SmartlockPro design. The outlet meets the National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements for GFCI protection in all applicable locations, including kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor installations when paired with a weather‑resistant cover. Additionally, the model is UL listed and carries the Leviton warranty, underscoring the brand’s commitment to quality and safety.
Usage
Homeowners and professionals alike will find the SmartlockPro outlet versatile across a range of environments. In a kitchen, the GFCI function safeguards against moisture‑related hazards while the USB ports keep smartphones, tablets, and kitchen appliances charged and ready for use. In bathrooms, the outlet’s water‑resistant design and rapid fault response provide peace of mind during grooming routines.
Workshops and garages benefit from the outlet’s robust construction and ability to protect power tools from ground‑fault incidents. The dual USB ports are especially handy for charging cordless drill batteries, laser levels, and other battery‑powered equipment without the need for additional adapters. Outdoor installations, when paired with a compatible weather‑proof cover, maintain the same level of protection, making the SmartlockPro an ideal choice for patio lighting, garden tool stations, and poolside power needs.
For commercial settings such as small offices, conference rooms, and coworking spaces, the outlet delivers a clean, cable‑free solution that supports employee devices and meeting‑room equipment. The intuitive status indicator helps facility managers quickly verify that the outlet is functioning correctly, reducing downtime and maintenance visits.

FAQ
How does the self‑test feature work?
The outlet’s internal microprocessor performs a diagnostic check every few seconds. It measures leakage current and verifies that the trip mechanism is ready to activate. If a fault is detected, the status LED flashes amber and the outlet trips, protecting anyone who might be using the circuit.
Can I use the outlet in a wet location?
Yes, the SmartlockPro is rated for wet locations when installed with a compatible weather‑resistant cover. The cover protects the outlet from moisture while preserving the GFCI’s safety functions.
What devices can I charge with the USB ports?
The ports are compatible with any USB‑powered device, including smartphones, tablets, e‑readers, Bluetooth speakers, and small power‑tool batteries. The smart chip automatically adjusts voltage and current to match the device’s charging requirements.
Is the outlet compatible with AFCI protection?
The SmartlockPro model is a GFCI‑only device. For circuits that require both GFCI and AFCI protection, Leviton offers combination units that integrate both functions in a single outlet.
What is the installation process?
Installation follows standard outlet wiring procedures. Turn off power at the breaker, connect the line and load wires to the appropriate terminals, secure the outlet in the wall box, and attach the cover plate. The built‑in LED will illuminate to confirm proper operation.
