The **RUSB2AC1MW** is a high-performance, flush-mount USB charging outlet designed by **Legrand (Pass & Seymour)**. It is primarily used in residential and commercial electrical systems to provide power to mobile devices without the need for bulky AC adapters. Below is a detailed breakdown of its electronic specifications and features. --- ### Technical Specifications | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Input Voltage** | 125V AC, 60Hz | | **USB Port Configuration** | 1 x USB Type-A, 1 x USB Type-C | | **Total USB Output** | 6.0 Amps (Shared) | | **Power Delivery (PD)** | Supports USB-C Power Delivery | | **NEMA Configuration** | 5-15R (Standard 3-prong AC outlets) | | **Color/Finish** | Matte White (MW) | | **Installation Type** | Wall-mount / In-wall | --- ### Key Electronic Components & Features #### 1. Hybrid Port Design The unit features one **USB-A** port and one **USB-C** port. This allows for legacy support for older cables while providing the high-speed charging capabilities of the modern USB-C standard. #### 2. Advanced Power Delivery (PD) Unlike basic USB outlets that provide a flat 5V output, the USB-C port on this device typically supports **Power Delivery**. This allows the internal circuitry to communicate with the connected device (like an iPhone or Galaxy) to negotiate the optimal voltage and current, resulting in significantly faster charging times. #### 3. High Amperage Output (6.0A) One of the standout electronic features is the **6.0 Amp** total capacity. Many standard USB outlets are limited to 2.1A or 3.1A. The 6.0A capacity ensures that even if two high-drain devices (like two tablets) are plugged in simultaneously, they can both charge at maximum speed. #### 4. Safety Circuitry The internal PCB (Printed Circuit Board) includes several protective layers: * **Overcurrent Protection:** Prevents damage if a device tries to draw too much power. * **Over-temperature Protection:** The device will throttle power or shut down if the internal components overheat. * **Tamper-Resistant (TR) Shutters:** The AC outlets feature a shutter mechanism to prevent the insertion of foreign objects, meeting National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements. #### 5. "Class 2" Power Supply The internal transformer converts the 125V AC house current down to low-voltage DC. It is classified as a Class 2 power source, meaning it is designed to limit the risk of fire and electric shock. --- ### Wiring Requirements The RUSB2AC1MW is designed for easy "DIY" installation but requires specific wiring: * **Side Wire & Back Wire:** Supports #14 AWG - #10 AWG copper or copper-clad conductors. * **Depth:** Because of the internal transformer, this unit is deeper than a standard outlet. A deep electrical box is recommended for installation. ---
