Hospital-Grade Duplex Receptacle
The Hubbell 8300LATRA is a 20A 125VAC NEMA 5-20R duplex receptacle built to hospital-grade specifications. It suits commercial, healthcare and residential projects that require a tamper-resistant outlet with a high-impact nylon face and brass contacts. The almond-coloured unit includes a circuit-identification area and mounting hardware for flush installation.
UL498 Safety and Durable Construction
The device carries UL Listing to UL498, CSA certification to C22.2 No.42 and meets Federal Specification W-C-596 and NEMA WD-6. Its galvanised steel strap and high-impact nylon face resist physical abuse, while the internal shutter mechanism blocks foreign-object insertion without affecting normal plug insertion or removal.
Back and Side Wiring for Flexible Installation
The terminal design accepts #12–#10 AWG solid or stranded copper conductors via back-wire or side-wire connections, giving electricians choice on rough-in method. The flush-mount format fits standard boxes and the included screws secure the strap without extra parts, freeing bench time for circuit completion.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Hubbell 8300LATRA duplex receptacle and which step is often missed?
Mount the galvanized-steel strap flush with the included screws, then terminate #12–#10 AWG solid or stranded copper conductors in the back-wire clamps or under the side-terminal screws.
What maintenance or replacement will the Hubbell 8300LATRA need over time?
Inspect the high-impact nylon face and tamper-resistant shutters for cracks or binding; replace the receptacle if the brass contacts or ground terminals show discolouration or loss of spring tension.
What limit appears first on the Hubbell 8300LATRA under sustained 20 A load?
The 20 A / 125 VAC rating and NEMA 5-20R configuration define the continuous current limit; the UL 498 listing and CSA C22.2 No. 42 certification confirm the thermal endurance at that rating.
