Leviton Telcom M8200-IGR 5-15R Isolated Ground Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M8200-IGR is a 5-15R configuration locking isolated ground receptacle finished in red. Isolated ground receptacles are used where sensitive electronic equipment requires a clean, noise-free ground path separate from the equipment grounding conductor of the branch circuit. The isolated ground design reduces electrical noise and interference at the receptacle outlet, making it a preferred choice for data, telecom, and AV equipment installations. The red color identifies the outlet as an isolated ground circuit, a common field convention that allows technicians to quickly distinguish these circuits from standard receptacles. Installation is performed by licensed electricians.

This receptacle is suited for commercial and light industrial environments where power quality is critical. Typical applications include server rooms, network closets, telecom equipment racks, broadcast facilities, and medical or laboratory spaces with sensitive instrumentation. The 5-15R rating supports standard 15-amp, 125-volt two-pole, three-wire grounding circuits. The Lev-Lok body style provides a secure, locking connection that resists accidental disconnection in demanding environments.

Key Features

• 5-15R configuration: 15-amp, 125-volt, two-pole, three-wire grounding
• Isolated ground design provides a dedicated, noise-free ground path for sensitive electronics
• Red color coding identifies isolated ground circuits at a glance
• Lev-Lok locking body style resists accidental plug pull-out
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation isolated ground receptacle for standard 15-amp, 125-volt branch circuits requiring a dedicated isolated ground path.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) requirements for isolated ground receptacles, including proper separation of the isolated ground conductor from the equipment grounding system back to the panel. Shut off and lock out the branch circuit breaker before wiring the receptacle. Verify that the isolated ground conductor is run continuously to the panel or isolated ground bus without interruption through intermediate junction boxes.
