Leviton 8300-HLW Hospital Grade Duplex Outlet 20A 125V

Product Description

The LEVITON 8300-HLW is a hospital grade duplex receptacle rated at 20 amps and 125 volts. Hospital grade receptacles meet the demanding safety and retention standards required for patient care areas in medical facilities. The 8300-HLW features the green dot marking that signifies compliance with UL 498 hospital grade requirements, confirming it has passed rigorous testing for grounding reliability and contact retention. Electricians install this receptacle in operating rooms, patient rooms, nursing stations, and other critical care environments where standard commercial-grade devices are not sufficient. It is also appropriate for laboratory and cleanroom applications where reliable power delivery is essential.

This duplex outlet is suited for 20-amp branch circuits in healthcare facilities, medical office buildings, and specialty commercial installations. The 20A-125V rating requires a 20-amp circuit with the appropriate 20-amp rated wiring. Its hospital grade construction makes it a go-to choice for electrical contractors working on healthcare construction and renovation projects governed by NFPA 99 Health Care Facilities Code requirements.
