Leviton Telcom M8300-SGG Duplex Receptacle 20A 125V

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM M8300-SGG is a hospital-grade, tamper-resistant duplex receptacle rated at 20 amps and 125 volts. Designed for demanding healthcare and commercial environments, this outlet meets the rigorous standards required for hospital-grade listing, which mandates superior contact reliability and mechanical durability. The tamper-resistant shutter mechanism prevents accidental insertion of foreign objects into the slots, making it appropriate for facilities where patient and occupant safety is a priority. Licensed electricians install this receptacle in wall boxes as part of branch-circuit wiring in commercial and healthcare construction or renovation projects.

This receptacle is suited for use in hospitals, clinics, medical offices, and other commercial facilities requiring hospital-grade outlets. The 20-amp, 125-volt rating supports standard NEMA 5-20R configurations, allowing connection of medical equipment, power strips, and general-purpose loads on 20-amp branch circuits. It is also applicable in any setting where a tamper-resistant, high-integrity outlet is required by code or specification, including schools, childcare facilities, and other occupancies subject to tamper-resistant outlet requirements under the National Electrical Code.
