Leviton Telcom MD820-IGG Hospital Grade Isolated Ground Receptacle

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM MD820-IGG is a Lev-Lok modular wiring device rated at 15 amps, designed as a hospital grade isolated ground duplex receptacle in a decorator-style form factor. Hospital grade isolated ground receptacles are used in sensitive electrical environments where clean, interference-free power is required. The isolated ground design separates the equipment ground path from the building ground, reducing electrical noise that can affect sensitive electronic equipment. Electricians and electrical contractors install this device in modular wiring systems where tool-less or panel-mount installation is required.

This receptacle is suited for commercial and institutional settings where hospital grade and isolated ground performance is specified. The Lev-Lok modular design allows the device to snap into compatible modular furniture, panel, or raceway systems. It is commonly specified in healthcare facilities, laboratories, and data-sensitive environments where power quality and grounding integrity are critical. The decorator-style finish integrates cleanly with standard decorator wallplates.

Key Features

• Hospital grade construction for demanding commercial and institutional electrical installations
• Isolated ground design minimizes electrical noise to connected sensitive equipment
• Lev-Lok modular form factor for snap-in installation in compatible modular wiring systems
• 15 amp rating suitable for standard branch circuit loads
• Decorator-style form factor for compatibility with decorator wallplates and trim

Compatibility

Designed for use with Leviton Lev-Lok compatible modular wiring systems and panels that accept standard Lev-Lok snap-in devices.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the branch circuit at the panel and verify absence of voltage before handling any wiring connections. Isolated ground receptacles require a dedicated isolated ground conductor run back to the panel, separate from the equipment grounding conductor of the branch circuit. Do not connect the isolated ground terminal to the standard equipment ground at the device location.
