Hospital-Grade Duplex Receptacle
The Hubbell HBL8300HRED is a 20A 125V hospital-grade duplex receptacle built for commercial and healthcare environments. It carries a NEMA 5-20R configuration and meets UL498 hospital-grade requirements alongside Federal Specification W-C-596. A nylon face and housing with a PBT base provide durability, while a four-point grounding system includes a stainless steel self-grounding staple.
Suited for code-compliant healthcare
Electricians wiring patient-care areas or other locations that demand hospital-grade listing will find this device fits the spec. It accepts only #12 to #10 AWG copper wire on back and side screw terminals, so installers using aluminium conductors or smaller-gauge copper must select a different receptacle. The red finish aids visual identification of dedicated circuits.
The NEMA 5-20R rating decides fit
This receptacle is rated 20 amps at 125 volts AC with a 5-20R slot pattern, which determines whether it matches the circuit breaker and plug types on the job. It operates continuously up to 75°C and down to -40°C without impact, supporting the environmental range set by the applicable standards.
