Hubbell HBL4560 Locking Receptacle 15A 250V L6-15R

Product Description

The HUBBELL HBL4560 is a single twist-lock locking receptacle rated for 15 amps at 250 volts AC, configured to the NEMA L6-15R standard. It features a 2-pole, 3-wire grounding design and is built for flush-mount installation. The face is constructed from reinforced thermoplastic polyester with a nylon face material in black, providing high-impact and abuse-resistant performance. An all-brass mounting and grounding system delivers a lower-resistance ground path and greater corrosion resistance than standard steel mounting systems. Licensed electricians install this device in commercial and industrial panel and outlet applications where secure, twist-lock connections are required.

The HBL4560 is suited for commercial and light industrial environments where a 250-volt, 15-amp twist-lock receptacle is specified. Its L6-15R configuration is commonly used with portable equipment, generators, and power distribution panels. The flush-mount design fits standard electrical boxes, and the device accepts both back and side wiring to accommodate varied conduit and wiring layouts. Color-coded face identification by voltage simplifies locating and mating the correct device during installation or service.

Key Features

• L6-15R configuration rated 15A at 250 volts AC, 2-pole, 3-wire grounding
• Reinforced thermoplastic polyester construction is abuse-resistant and corrosion-resistant
• All-brass mounting and grounding system for lower ground-path resistance versus steel
• Wire restraint recess for both back and side wiring reduces the risk of terminal loosening
• Face color-coded by voltage for quick identification and correct device mating
• Flush-mount design compatible with standard electrical outlet boxes
• UL 498 and CSA C22.2 listed

Compatibility

The HBL4560 replaces the earlier Hubbell catalog number 4560 in the HBL Twist-Lock series. Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation single locking receptacle for NEMA L6-15R applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the circuit at the panel before beginning any wiring work. The device accepts back or side wiring; use the wire restraint recess to secure conductors and minimize the chance of terminal loosening over time. Verify that the supply circuit matches the L6-15R configuration and 250-volt rating before energizing.
