Snapconnect SNAP2182IA 20 A Receptacle
This hospital-grade duplex receptacle is rated for 20 A at 125 V AC and uses a modular SNAPConnect system that lets the connector be installed during rough-in and snapped into place after the wall is finished. The flush-mount decorator profile includes a grounding clip and mounting hardware for a secure fit.
Suited for modular wiring projects in demanding
It suits installers who need a connectorized device that simplifies device change-out in heavy-use areas. Buyers looking for a standard screw-terminal receptacle or a non-hospital-grade outlet should consider other options.
20 A 125 V AC hospital-grade rating
The single specification that decides fit is the 20 A, 125 V AC hospital-grade rating with NEMA 5-20R configuration, which determines whether the receptacle meets the required safety and durability standards for the intended circuit.

Questions about this item
How do I install the SNAPConnect SNAP2182IA receptacle, and what step is often missed?
Wire the modular connector during rough-in using 12 AWG conductors, then snap the receptacle onto the connector after the wall is finished; the grounding clip must be secured to the box or the self-grounding staple will not provide a ground path.
What maintenance or replacement will the SNAP2182IA need over time?
The receptacle itself is maintenance-free; if a circuit fault damages the brass contacts or the nylon face cracks from impact, the modular design lets you unplug and replace only the receptacle without re-wiring the connector.
What limit appears first when the SNAP2182IA runs at full load continuously?
The 75 °C maximum continuous operating temperature is the first limit; sustained 20 A loads in a poorly ventilated box can push the device toward that thermal ceiling before the 2,000 V dielectric rating or the 94V-2 flammability threshold become factors.
