Hubbell Incorporated IG8300R 20A Duplex Receptacle 125VAC Red

Isolated Ground Duplex Receptacle

This Hubbell IG8300R provides a 20A 125VAC duplex receptacle with an isolated ground circuit. The green grounding screw connects directly to the grounding contacts, separating them from the mounting strap and conventional grounding system. A triangle marking on the face identifies the isolated ground configuration. The red nylon body features a slender compact design with impact-resistant finder groove face.

Circuit Compatibility Check

Verify that your installation includes a dedicated insulated ground wire running from the system ground buss to the device grounding screw. Confirm the circuit is rated for 20A at 125VAC and uses a 5-20R configuration. Ensure the electrical box can accommodate the receptacle dimensions and that local codes permit isolated ground installations for your intended application.

Standard Grounding Receptacle Replacement

This unit replaces conventional duplex receptacles where electrical noise on the grounding path interferes with sensitive electronic equipment. The isolated ground design eliminates ground loop noise by providing a clean reference path separate from the building grounding system. The upgrade is worth it when powering audio, video, medical or data equipment that requires a noise-free ground reference for reliable operation.
