Leviton Telcom 16262-HGG Duplex Receptacle 15A Hospital Grade

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 16262-HGG is a hospital-grade duplex receptacle built for demanding electrical installations where reliable, secure connections are required. Rated at 15 amps and configured for 2-pole, 3-wire wiring, this unit features a Decora-style faceplate profile and a gray finish. Hospital-grade receptacles meet stricter construction and testing standards than standard commercial devices, making them the required choice in patient-care areas and other critical environments. Licensed electricians and facility maintenance professionals install this device as part of branch-circuit wiring in wall boxes.

This receptacle is suited for hospital patient-care areas, medical offices, and other facilities where hospital-grade devices are specified by code or engineering standards. The Decora-style form factor also makes it compatible with Decora wallplate covers, which is useful when aesthetic consistency is required across a panel of devices. It is appropriate for 15-amp, 120-volt branch circuits in both new construction and renovation work.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable local amendments. Always shut off power at the circuit breaker and verify the circuit is de-energized with a voltage tester before beginning work. Hospital-grade receptacles in patient-care areas are subject to additional inspection requirements under NFPA 99 and local healthcare facility codes. Follow the device's wiring diagram for proper terminal connections.
