Hubbell 20 A 125 V Duplex Receptacle

The Hubbell CR20BLK is a straight-blade duplex receptacle rated for 20 A at 125 V AC. It provides two grounded 5-20R outlets in a single-gang nylon housing finished in black. The device is polarised and accepts three-wire connections via screw terminals. It suits residential or light-commercial branch circuits requiring a 20 A feed.

Sustained-load behaviour

The receptacle carries a continuous 20 A rating under the UL 498 and CSA C22.2 standards. Its nylon housing and screw-terminal connections are designed to maintain stable contact resistance during prolonged loading. No GFCI protection is integrated, so downstream ground-fault protection must be supplied by the circuit breaker or a separate device if required by code.

Build and mounting

The flush-mount body fits a standard single-gang box and meets NEMA WD-6 dimensional requirements. The black nylon housing carries a NEMA Type 1 enclosure rating for indoor use. Screw terminals accept solid or stranded conductors for reliable termination. The unit is UL listed to UL 498 and certified to Federal Specification W-C-596.

Questions about this item

Does the CR20BLK receptacle generate noticeable heat or noise when supplying 20 A continuously?

It is a passive wiring device with no moving parts or electronics, so it produces no audible noise and negligible heat under its rated 20 A load.

What existing wiring and circuit protection must be in place before installing this 5-20R duplex receptacle?

You need a 125 V AC single-phase circuit with three conductors (hot, neutral, ground) protected by a 20 A breaker, plus a standard single-gang flush-mount box.

Will this grounded 5-20R receptacle accept older two-prong plugs without an adapter?

No — the polarised, grounded slots require a three-prong plug; two-prong plugs will not fit and no adapter should be used.
