Leviton Pop-Up Floor Box with 15 Amp GFCI Outlet - Low Profile

Our review of the Leviton Pop-Up Floor Box with 15 Amp, Tamper-Resistant Self-Test GFCI finds it suited for contractors and homeowners who need a clean, safe floor outlet without intrusive above-floor hardware. The biggest reason to buy is its combination of a low profile metal cover that recesses into the floor and a pre-wired terminal block that saves installation time, making it a practical choice where aesthetics and quick wiring matter. It also offers automatic GFCI self-test protection and IP44 resistance when closed, so it is built for everyday living spaces.

Key Features

• Pre-wired terminal block: Terminal block arrives pre-wired so an electrician or DIYer can simply insert wires and tighten screws to reduce install time.
• Low profile metal cover: The stylish cover recesses into the floor when not in use, trimming above-floor height to 1/4 in for a discreet appearance.
• Self-test GFCI: The included SmartlockPro Tamper-Resistant GFCI performs periodic internal tests to help ensure reliable ground-fault protection without manual checks.
• Ingress protection: The unit meets UL 514A and has IP44 rating when closed, offering protection from water spray and meeting scrub water test criteria.
• Versatile flooring compatibility: Designed for tile, stone, wood, laminate, carpet, concrete and vinyl, making it suitable for many installation environments.
• Feed-through capacity: A 20 Amp feed-through allows the outlet to be integrated into common circuit layouts without extra modifications.

Who It's For

This floor box is aimed at electricians, contractors and savvy homeowners remodeling living rooms, conference spaces, kitchens or offices who want a neat floor outlet that blends into finished flooring. The pre-wired terminal block and low profile cover are particularly useful where speed and finished appearance matter.

Those looking for outdoor-rated or heavy industrial power distribution should look elsewhere; while the unit is IP44 when closed and meets UL 514A scrub water tests, it is specified for indoor floor installations and standard 15 Amp, 125 Volt receptacle use rather than outdoor or high-amperage service.

Pros & Cons

• Self-test Tamper-Resistant GFCI adds ongoing safety without manual testing.
