Leviton 8310 Hospital Grade Receptacle 20A 125V

Product Description

The LEVITON 8310 is a hospital grade electrical receptacle rated at 20 amps and 125 volts. It is designed for use in demanding healthcare and critical-care environments where outlet integrity and safety compliance are non-negotiable. Hospital grade receptacles meet stricter construction and testing standards than standard commercial outlets, including requirements for contact retention and grounding reliability. Licensed electricians install this receptacle during new construction, renovation, or outlet replacement in facilities where hospital grade designation is required by code or specification.

The LEVITON 8310 is suited for healthcare facilities including hospitals, clinics, surgical centers, and other medical environments where hospital grade outlets are mandated. It is also specified in other critical-use installations such as laboratories and data centers where outlet reliability is essential. The 20-amp, 125-volt rating supports standard medical equipment loads on 20-amp branch circuits.
