Leviton Telcom MT820-IG Hospital Grade Isolated Ground Duplex

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM MT820-IG is a Lev-Lok tamper-resistant, hospital-grade, isolated-ground duplex receptacle designed for demanding electrical installations where safety and signal integrity are critical. The isolated-ground configuration reduces electrical noise on sensitive circuits, making it well-suited for environments where electronic equipment requires a clean, dedicated ground path. The tamper-resistant shutters block foreign object insertion, meeting modern safety code requirements. Licensed electricians install this device as part of branch-circuit wiring in healthcare, laboratory, and other critical-facility applications.

This receptacle is intended for installations where both patient or occupant safety and equipment protection are priorities. Hospital-grade construction meets the elevated mechanical and electrical durability standards required in clinical and critical-care environments. The isolated-ground design benefits audio-visual, medical, and instrumentation equipment sensitive to ground-loop interference. It is sold individually as a single unit.

Key Features

• Hospital-grade construction for elevated durability and safety compliance
• Isolated-ground design reduces electrical noise on sensitive equipment circuits
• Tamper-resistant shutters block accidental or unauthorized object insertion
• Lev-Lok design for secure, twist-lock style device retention in compatible wallplates
• Duplex configuration provides two outlet positions on a single device

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation duplex receptacle for use with compatible Lev-Lok wallplates and covers in hospital-grade branch-circuit applications.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable local amendments. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify absence of voltage with a meter before wiring. Isolated-ground receptacles require a dedicated insulated ground conductor run separately from the equipment-grounding conductor in the conduit. Follow all applicable NEC requirements for hospital-grade receptacle installations in healthcare facilities.
