Hospital Grade 15 A Receptacle
The Hubbell HBL8200RED is a straight-blade 5-15R receptacle rated for 15 amps. It carries a hospital-grade listing and meets UL requirements that are more stringent than standard device standards. The deep-body construction includes a circuit-ID face for quick identification. Nickel-plated bypass contacts increase contact pressure and lower operating temperature.
Wiring Professionals in Health-Care Settings
Electricians and facility managers who need a receptacle that withstands high-abuse areas and provides redundant grounding will find this device suitable. The four-point grounding system delivers low-resistance ground continuity. Installers who prefer back-wired ground terminals benefit from faster, easier installation. Buyers who need a different ampere rating, a non-hospital-grade device, or a configuration other than 5-15R should select another model.
Nickel-Plated Bypass Contact Design
The exclusive nickel-plated bypass contact design increases contact pressure, which lowers the operating temperature during use. This feature directly supports the receptacle's reliability and long-term performance in demanding environments. It is the key specification that differentiates this hospital-grade device from standard-grade alternatives.
