Hospital-grade straight blade receptacle

The Hubbell HBL8200HRED is a 15 A 5-15R receptacle built to UL hospital-grade requirements. Its nickel-plated bypass contacts increase pressure to lower operating temperature and a four-point grounding system provides redundant ground continuity. The impact-resistant deep face and slender compact design suit high-abuse healthcare environments.

Upgrade from standard commercial receptacles

Standard devices meet less stringent UL criteria and lack the triple-wipe contact geometry that maintains retention after repeated insertions. The jump is justified when code requires hospital-grade listing or when equipment downtime from loose plugs is unacceptable. It replaces basic 15 A duplex outlets in patient-care areas, laboratories and corridors.

Fits standard wall boxes and finishes

The device mounts in a standard electrical box and accepts 15 A straight-blade plugs. The finder-groove face guides blades for quick insertion while the compact profile leaves room for adjacent devices or deeper boxes. No special tools or wiring methods beyond normal 15 A branch-circuit practices are required.

Questions about this item

Does the HBL8200HRED 5-15R receptacle fit a standard single-gang wall box?

The device is a straight-blade receptacle designed for flush mounting in a standard single-gang box using the supplied mounting screws.

What wiring step is most often missed when installing the HBL8200HRED receptacle?

The triple-wipe contacts require the stripped conductor to be fully seated under the terminal screw; partial insertion reduces the contact pressure that the nickel-plated bypass design relies on.

What part of the HBL8200HRED receptacle would need replacement after years of heavy use in a clinical setting?

The impact-resistant face and triple-wipe contacts are built for high-abuse areas; if the face cracks or the contact wipe degrades, the entire receptacle is replaced as a unit.
