Those are called "spec grade" receptacles.


Not all spec grade receptacles have this feature. I have some Leviton
spec grade receptacles that I bought for an upstairs bedroom; they do
not have the "back wire" feature. I'm not real broken up about this,
but the OP did specify what he wanted. I'd specify a brand/model if I
knew, but I just know that they exist.
