Questions about this item
Should I pick the HBL5361WR or the HBL5262?
Both are Hubbell straight-blade receptacles; the HBL5361WR is the weather-resistant 5-20R model rated 20 A, while the HBL5262 is referenced in the manufacturer highlights as the extra heavy-duty industrial series.
What does the 20 A rating mean once installed?
The receptacle is rated for 20 amperes, so it can supply up to that current on a properly protected 20 A branch circuit without overheating.
What interface does the 5-20R use and what does it limit?
The 5-20R is a NEMA straight-blade grounding interface that accepts only matching 5-20P plugs, preventing lower-rated plugs from being inserted.
