News Summary

·       Leviton is launching four new Lever Edge USB Outlets featuring patented lever termination, enabling wiring devices up to 3.5 times faster than traditional devices.

·       Users can charge two devices through the built-in USB ports while keeping both receptacles available for use.

·       The expanded Lever Edge line includes 15A and 20A outlets in two USB charging configurations: one USB Type-A port and one USB Type-C port, or dual USB Type-C ports.

MELVILLE, N.Y., Nov. 12, 2026 – Leviton today announced four new Lever Edge™ USB Outlets that combine built-in USB charging with fast and easy lever termination, expanding its award-winning Lever Edge portfolio. Each outlet features two USB charging ports and two tamper-resistant receptacles. Users can charge two devices directly through the USB ports while keeping both receptacles available for use.

The new outlets give contractors an efficient way to add USB charging while reducing installation time with Leviton’s Lever Edge patented technology that enables wiring up to 3.5 times faster than traditional wiring devices. To install, users can open the color-coded lever, push the stripped wire into the terminal and close the lever until it clicks securely into place: open, push, click, done. The outlets were developed in response to customer feedback and strong Lever Edge sales across markets.

“Electrical professionals want practical ways to complete installations faster without compromising reliability, safety or the finished result, and Lever Edge USB Outlets are the answer,” said Bill Randall, Senior Director of Product Management, Residential, at Leviton. “These new outlets bring together features customers value: convenient built-in charging and a secure termination method that helps contractors move efficiently from one device to the next.”

The new outlets also feature color-coded lever terminals that help installers identify the correct termination points for hot, neutral and ground connections, reducing wiring confusion. An audible click indicates that each lever has closed. Once terminated, the devices have no exposed metal parts, enhancing safety and eliminating the need to wrap the device with electrical tape.

Dual hot and neutral terminals simplify feed-through wiring in applications where several receptacles may be installed along the same circuit. The 15A models support 20A feed-through applications. Tongue-and-groove alignment features help keep adjacent devices straight in multi-gang wallboxes.

The 15A outlets accept No. 14 and No. 12 AWG solid or stranded copper wire. The 20A outlets accept No. 12 and No. 10 AWG solid or stranded copper wire. Each model includes two charge-only USB ports that do not transfer data. An integrated smart chip optimizes available charging power for connected devices, and the USB ports provide power-overload protection and noise-free charging. The dual USB Type-C models provide up to 15 watts per port (30 watts total).The four new models include:

  • EAC15-W: 27-watt USB Type-A and Type-C Charger with 15A Tamper-Resistant Decora® Receptacle, 20A feed-through, 125V
  • EAC20-W: 27-watt USB Type-A and Type-C Charger with 20A Tamper-Resistant Decora Receptacle, 125V
  • ECC15-W: 30-watt Dual USB Type-C Charger with 15A Tamper-Resistant Decora Receptacle, 20A feed-through, 125V
  • ECC20-W: 30-watt Dual USB Type-C Charger with 20A Tamper-Resistant Decora Receptacle, 125V

Tamper-resistant shutters help prevent unintended objects from being inserted into the receptacles, providing added protection for households with children. The outlets’ modern design coordinates with other Leviton Decora-branded wiring devices. The outlets can be installed with a Leviton midway wallplate or can be installed with Leviton Decora-branded standard or screwless wallplates when the wallplate breakaway tabs are removed.

Lever Edge USB Outlets are compatible with a wide range of phones, tablets, smartwatches, e-readers, cameras and Bluetooth accessories. These include compatible Apple and Samsung devices as well as compatible Android devices. The new Lever Edge USB Outlets are available in white through all Leviton markets and sales channels.
