NEMA Enclosures

[denf]

Hello. Need some help. Looking at a set of plans which is " specking" a NEMA 5-20R UON Duplex receptacle outlet for a commercial building. My thinking is the NEMA 4X is most highest rating available. Any answer will help. Thnx

I could never remember NEMA configurations, but I could remember part numbers. Like a CS115W...Commercial Switch, 1 pole, 15A, White.

Can't remember them either. I printed a configuration sheet, stuck it in my code book.
