The Leviton T5636-W delivers 60 watts of USB Power Delivery through two Type-C ports - enough to fast-charge a laptop, smartphone, or tablet at speeds that rival a dedicated charger block - while keeping the standard 15-amp NEMA outlet slot fully available. When only one USB-C port is in use, it draws the full 60 watts for maximum speed. When both ports are active, power splits between devices automatically. The reversible Type-C connectors and PD protocol negotiate the optimal voltage and current for each device. Tamper-resistant shutters protect the standard outlet. Replaces any standard outlet in a single gang box. Wallplate sold separately.
What does USB Power Delivery mean, and why does it charge laptops faster?
USB Power Delivery is a charging standard that lets the outlet and the connected device negotiate higher power levels over USB-C. That allows compatible laptops, tablets, and phones to draw much more power than a basic 5-volt USB charger, which is why the T5636-W can replace a separate fast charger for many USB-C devices.
How is the 60 watts split when both USB-C ports are used at the same time?
With one port in use, a single device can draw the full 60 watts. When two devices are connected, the outlet automatically divides available power based on each device's demand and charging protocol. The exact split can vary, so two devices will not both receive the full 60 watts at the same time.
What devices are compatible with this outlet?
It is intended for USB-C devices that support USB Power Delivery, including many laptops, tablets, smartphones, handheld gaming devices, and battery packs. It also works with lower-power USB-C accessories, but the best benefit comes with devices that can take advantage of PD fast charging.
Can I plug a USB-A cable into this outlet?
No. Both charging ports are USB-C only. If your device still uses a USB-A cable, you would need a different outlet model or a cable and device combination designed for USB-C.
How do you install the T5636-W?
It installs in place of a standard 15-amp receptacle in a single-gang box. Turn off the breaker, verify power is off, move the hot, neutral, and ground conductors to the new outlet using the approved terminals, fasten the device, and install a wallplate. If box fill is tight or local code requires licensed work, use an electrician.
