Hospital Grade Receptacle 5-20R
The Hubbell HBL8300SGGYA is a straight-blade receptacle rated at 20 amps with a 5-20R configuration. It carries a hospital-grade listing that exceeds standard UL requirements. The grey unit is built for high-abuse healthcare environments where reliable grounding and durable construction are essential.
Verify Circuit And Wiring Before Installing
Confirm the branch circuit is protected by a 20-amp breaker and uses conductors sized for that rating. The device includes integral wire leads for fast connection and an exclusive nickel-plated bypass contact design that increases contact pressure. A one-piece nickel-plated brass ground strap provides a four-point grounding system for low-resistance continuity.
Suits Healthcare Facilities
This receptacle is intended for hospitals, clinics and similar settings that require hospital-grade durability and tamper-resistant contacts. It is not suited for residential installations that only need standard-grade devices, nor for circuits rated above 20 amps or configurations other than 5-20R. Buyers needing a different amperage or pin layout should select an alternative model.
