Hubbell HBL8300ILGY Hospital Grade Receptacle
The Hubbell HBL8300ILGY is a 20-amp straight blade receptacle rated 5-20R and finished in gray. It carries a hospital grade listing with nickel-plated bypass contacts that increase contact pressure and lower operating temperature. The impact-resistant deep face and illuminated finder groove are built for high-abuse healthcare environments. Triple wipe contacts and a four-point grounding system provide redundant ground continuity.
Installers Wiring Health-Care Facilities
This device suits electricians and maintenance teams fitting patient-care areas, operating rooms, or other clinical spaces where a hospital grade listing is required. The slender profile helps in crowded boxes and the LED illumination aids location in low light. Facilities that do not need a hospital grade rating or that require a different amperage or colour should select an alternative device.
5-20R 20-Amp Straight Blade Configuration
The single specification that decides fit is the 5-20R 20-amp straight blade configuration. Only plugs matching this pattern will connect, so the receptacle must match the circuit rating and plug type specified for the installation.

Questions about this item
Will the HBL8300ILGY fit a standard 20-amp wall box?
The receptacle is a 5-20R configuration rated for 20 amps, designed for standard junction boxes used in hospital-grade installations.
Which step do installers most often miss when wiring the illuminated face?
Connect the LED illumination circuit to the line side so the entire face lights when power is present, not just when the load is on.
How often should the nickel-plated bypass contacts be inspected in a high-abuse area?
Inspect the four-point grounding system and triple-wipe contacts annually; replace the device if contact pressure drops or the impact-resistant face shows cracking.
