Leviton 8310-R Hospital Grade Receptacle 20A 125V

Product Description

The LEVITON 8310-R is a hospital grade duplex receptacle rated for 20 amps at 125 volts. Hospital grade receptacles meet stricter manufacturing and testing standards than standard commercial devices, making them suitable for environments where reliable power delivery is critical. This receptacle is designed for installation in healthcare facilities, medical offices, and other settings where hospital grade certification is required by code. A licensed electrician installs this device in standard single-gang outlet boxes as part of a branch circuit wiring system.

The 8310-R is used in hospital patient care areas, clinics, surgical centers, and medical equipment rooms where the National Electrical Code requires hospital grade devices. Its 20-amp rating supports equipment with higher inrush current demands, including medical devices, diagnostic equipment, and powered carts. The 125-volt rating is standard for North American single-phase branch circuits.
