Installers Wiring High-Use 20 A Circuits
This device suits electricians and facility managers fitting hospital-grade receptacles on 20 A branch circuits where redundant grounding and circuit identification are required. It accepts #12–#10 AWG copper wire on back and side screw terminals for secure connections. Buyers needing a different NEMA configuration or a lower amperage rating should select an alternative product. The ivory finish matches standard institutional colour schemes.
NEMA 5-20R 20 A 125 V AC Rating
The single specification that decides fit is the NEMA 5-20R rating of 20 A at 125 V AC, which determines compatibility with the circuit breaker, wiring and plug types used in the installation. This receptacle complies with Federal Specification W-C-596 and UL 498 for hospital-grade applications. Verify the circuit amperage and NEMA configuration before purchase.

Questions about this item
Will the 20 A, 125 V AC rating on this 5-20R receptacle match the circuit breaker and wiring I already have in place?
This receptacle is rated for 20 A at 125 V AC with a NEMA 5-20R configuration, so it requires a 20 A branch circuit and #12 or #10 AWG copper conductors on the back and side wired screw terminals.
How can I verify the hospital-grade receptacle is functioning correctly once installed?
Confirm the nickel-plated brass contacts provide firm blade retention, the four-point grounding system shows continuity to the grounding conductor, and the circuit ID face remains legible after the device is energised.
Does the box include mounting hardware and are any additional parts needed for a flush-mount installation?
The receptacle ships with mounting hardware for flush mounting; you must supply #12 or #10 AWG copper wire and a compatible 20 A branch circuit breaker separately.
