Hospital Grade Wall Outlets


Heard that this was a good tweak to use. Bought some but i am not sure how to wire them. Do you wire them the same as existing outlets or do you need a seperate ground wire to isolate the outlet. PLEASE HELP

I understand that Woodhead outlets have a higher and purer copper content than any hospital grade outlet. I understand that an audio dealer supposedly did extensive listening testing of some 40 or more different plugs and believes Woodhead to be superior. They sell retail for over $40 which is nearly double the Hubbel hospital grade. And apparently the Woodhead are not hospital grade since, for at least one thing, they do not have the plug retension properies that are required. Has anyone heard these? AlbertPorter?
I have Hubbell outlets available at 14.95 each + s/h. 4.00 for 1 2/3 for 5.00 4/5 for 6.00.This is one of those very reasonable tweaks that really works.I highly recomened them.Email for prices on case lot purchases.They come 10 to a box.
I bought some TWEAKED Hospital grade outlets! I bought some hospital grade outlets from Sergui ( interlinkhouse.com) He had them reworked. He had them silver plated and then gold plated. His price was great! unfortuntely I haven't install them yet. I am reworking an entire house's electrical system for my system. All dedicated 40 amp outlets with a star ground. I will let you know when i get it all put together!!! Email me if you want some more info!! later!!!!! Steve
I'm in the process of running two dedicated circuits. One for the amp and one for the front end. Is it recommended to only ground the preamp and run the rest of the equiptment ungrounded and ground to the preamp. I am going to run an isolated ground from an 8 ft. ground rod, so could both circuits use this common ground without creating a ground loop? Thanks
Commercial grade duplex outlets have the same contacts and construction as do hospital grade and can be had for around $3.40. Try Home Depot.
