20 A Twist-Lock Receptacle
The Hubbell HBL7310B is a 20 A twist-lock receptacle rated for 125/250 V AC single-phase power. It uses a 3-pole, 3-wire configuration with screw-terminal connections. The black nylon housing is non-flanged for flush mounting and carries a NEMA enclosure rating of 1. It is built for industrial and commercial equipment requiring a secure locking connection.
Capacity and headroom
The device handles continuous loads up to 20 A at either 125 V or 250 V AC. Brass contacts and a polarized design maintain reliable contact under vibration or movement. It is not suited for circuits exceeding 20 A or for three-phase installations that demand a fourth wire. The single-gang format limits it to one receptacle per opening.
Practical limits of the locking interface
The twist-lock mechanism prevents accidental disconnection but requires manual engagement and release. The non-NEMA configuration means mating plugs must match the exact 3P3W pattern; standard NEMA locking plugs will not fit. No cover is included, so the face remains exposed when not in use. AFCI protection is not integrated and must be provided upstream if required.
