Hubbell 8300WTRA Straight Blade Receptacle

This 20 A straight blade receptacle suits contractors and facility managers wiring commercial or light-industrial circuits. It accepts NEMA 5-20R plugs and provides a secure connection point for equipment requiring dedicated line protection. The tamper-resistant shutter helps meet national electrical code requirements for safety.

Mounting and wiring integration

A steel mounting strap anchors the device firmly in a standard electrical box. Triple-wipe contacts ensure reliable conductivity when conductors are terminated. The high-impact face includes a circuit identification marking area so installers can label branch circuits clearly during rough-in or final inspection.

Sustained load behaviour

Triple-wipe contact construction maintains consistent pressure under continuous 20 A loading, reducing resistance rise over time. The impact-resistant face withstands mechanical stress in high-traffic environments without cracking. Tamper-resistant shutters remain functional after repeated insertion cycles, preserving code compliance throughout the device service life.
