Bryant 8210 Series Hospital Grade Single Receptacle, NEMA 5-20R

The Bryant 8210 Series Hospital Grade Single Receptacle is a NEMA 5-20R configured device built on Bryant's 8 Series receptacle platform, engineered to deliver one dedicated, secure power connection point where dependable performance is non-negotiable. This single receptacle is available in Gray, Red, and Standard finishes, giving electrical contractors a hospital-grade option that fits facility color-coding needs without compromising performance. Hospital grade construction adds the mechanical strength and secure grounding connection that healthcare facilities, laboratories, and other demanding commercial environments require. As part of Bryant's 8 Series family, this single receptacle is built to withstand frequent plug insertions and removals while maintaining a firm, low-resistance connection at the contacts.

Key Features

  • 8 Series Platform: Part of Bryant's 8 Series receptacle line, designed for demanding commercial, institutional, and healthcare electrical systems.
  • Single Receptacle Format: Dedicated single-outlet design that concentrates a full-strength connection at one location rather than splitting capacity across a duplex face.
  • Durable Contact System: Engineered to maintain firm grounding and conductor engagement through repeated plug cycles, helping reduce intermittent connections over time.
  • Available Finishes: Offered in Gray, Red, and Standard color options so this hospital-grade single receptacle can match facility color-coding and identification schemes.

Bryant 8310I – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a NEMA 5-20R single receptacle accept a regular 15 amp straight-blade plug?
Yes. The Bryant 8210 Series hospital grade single receptacle is configured NEMA 5-20R, and a 5-20R face takes both 5-15P and 5-20P cord caps because the T-slot neutral accommodates the straight and the turned blade. That is why 5-20R is the usual choice on 20 amp branch circuits feeding mixed medical and general equipment.
2) What does hospital grade actually mean on a Bryant 8 Series receptacle?
Hospital grade is the rating stated for the 8210 Series, meaning the device is built to the higher mechanical, electrical, and dielectric requirements associated with that listing, including a secure grounding connection and strength to survive repeated plug insertion and withdrawal. On the wall it is identified by the green dot. Industrial or commercial spec grade devices, such as the Eaton 816W single receptacle, are built for durability but are not hospital grade.
3) Does the Bryant 8210 come in red for emergency or generator-backed circuits?
Yes. Color choices are Gray (8310GRY), Red (8310RED), and Standard (8310I). Red is what facilities typically pull for outlets fed from the essential electrical system, so the 8310RED is the one to specify when the circuit is generator backed and Gray or Standard covers normal power.
4) What is the difference between the Bryant 8210 Series hospital grade single receptacle and the Pass & Seymour 2097HGI?
Both are hospital grade 20A devices, but they do different jobs. The Bryant 8210 Series is a NEMA 5-20R single receptacle - one dedicated outlet position, no ground-fault protection. The Pass & Seymour 2097HGI is a hospital grade 20A duplex self-test GFCI receptacle in ivory, so it gives two outlet positions plus GFCI protection with a self-test function. Where code or facility policy calls for GFCI protection at the device - wet locations, certain patient care areas - the 2097HGI is the one that satisfies it. Where a single dedicated, non-GFCI connection is wanted, the Bryant 8210 Series is the straightforward choice.
5) If a hospital grade device is not required, what single receptacle can be used instead of the Bryant 8210 Series?
For a location that does not need the hospital grade rating, two single-receptacle alternatives exist. The Eaton 6450W is a heavy-duty industrial specification grade decorator single receptacle accepting #14-10 AWG conductors, which suits shops, mechanical rooms, and back-of-house circuits. The Eaton 816W is a commercial specification grade single receptacle rated 15A, which is a lighter-duty device for general commercial outlets. The Bryant 8210 Series remains the option when the hospital grade rating itself is what the specification calls out.
6) Will the Pass & Seymour Turnlok 3330 work in place of the Bryant 8210 Series receptacle?
No - the plug configurations are different and will not mate. The Bryant 8210 Series is configured NEMA 5-20R, which accepts a straight-blade 20A cord cap. The Pass & Seymour Turnlok 3330 is a 30A non-NEMA single receptacle, a twist-lock style device on a different configuration entirely. A cord set made up for a 5-20P will not engage a Turnlok face. Match the receptacle to the cord cap already on the equipment.
7) What is the difference between this single receptacle and a duplex for a hospital room outlet?
A single device puts one full-capacity outlet at the location instead of splitting the face into two. That is the normal choice for dedicated equipment circuits, imaging carts, or any load you do not want sharing the strap. If you need two positions on the same box, look at a hospital grade duplex such as the Pass and Seymour 2097HGI, which is a 20A duplex with self-test GFCI built in.
8) Which part number do I order for the Bryant 8210 hospital grade single receptacle?
Order by color: 8310GRY for gray, 8310RED for red, 8310I for the standard color. All three are the same NEMA 5-20R hospital grade single device, so the only ordering decision is which color-coding scheme the facility uses.
9) Can I use this receptacle in a lab or shop instead of an industrial spec grade device?
Yes, and it is a step up in mechanical and grounding requirements over spec grade. The 8210 Series is listed for laboratories and clinical support spaces as well as general commercial and institutional work. If the location is industrial rather than healthcare and hospital grade is not required, an industrial specification grade device like the Eaton 6450W single receptacle covers the same duty. For hazardous or explosionproof areas neither applies, and you would be looking at an Appleton FSQC interlocked explosionproof receptacle instead.
10) I need two outlet positions at 20 amps instead of one - what should I order?
The Bryant 8210 Series is a single receptacle, so it concentrates one connection point at the box rather than splitting the face into two. For a duplex at 20A, the Pass & Seymour 26352W is a heavy-duty specification grade decorator duplex rated 20A 125V in white. If the two-outlet position also needs hospital grade with ground-fault protection, the Pass & Seymour 2097HGI is a hospital grade 20A duplex self-test GFCI.
11) What should I use instead of the Bryant 8210 Series in a hazardous or wash-down location?
The Bryant 8210 Series is a hospital grade NEMA 5-20R device intended for healthcare, laboratory, and general commercial and institutional interiors. It is not the device for a classified area. For those, Appleton offers the FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle, and the U-Line ECS factory-sealed 15 and 20 amp 3-pole plug and receptacle set. Those are built around the sealing and interlock requirements that a standard straight-blade wiring device does not address.
12) Can I use the Eaton 5262 Arrow Hart duplex where a Bryant 8210 Series is specified?
Only if the specification does not call for hospital grade or 20A. The Eaton 5262 is a heavy-duty industrial specification grade duplex rated 15A 125V, configuration 5-15R, in gray. The Bryant 8210 Series is a hospital grade single receptacle configured NEMA 5-20R. The two differ in grade, in outlet count, and in configuration, so the Eaton will not accept a 20A straight-blade cord cap and does not carry the hospital grade rating.
13) For a tamper-resistant outlet in a pediatric or public waiting area, is the Bryant 8210 Series the right device?
The Bryant 8210 Series is specified as a hospital grade NEMA 5-20R single receptacle and is offered in gray, red, and a standard color for facility color-coding. Where tamper resistance is the governing requirement, the Pass & Seymour 3232TRW Trademaster tamper-resistant duplex receptacle in white is the device built for it. Many healthcare projects use both - hospital grade singles on dedicated equipment circuits, tamper-resistant devices in accessible public spaces.
14) My equipment cord has a twist-lock 50A cap - does the Bryant 8210 Series fit?
No. The Bryant 8210 Series is a NEMA 5-20R straight-blade single receptacle. For a 50A locking connection, the Eaton 7379 is an extra heavy duty industrial locking receptacle rated 50A at 600V/250V AC/DC in black. Confirm the exact cord cap configuration before ordering, since locking devices are configuration-specific.
