Bryant HUBRCT220NI 20A Kitchen Counter Receptacle Kit, Nickel
The Bryant HUBRCT220NI is a 20A kitchen counter receptacle kit finished in Nickel, purpose-built for the low-profile, recessed-style outlets that modern kitchen islands and peninsulas require. Unlike a standard wall-mounted device, this receptacle is designed to mount directly into a countertop or cabinet face, keeping small-appliance power available at the counter without interrupting the backsplash or wall plane. The kit ships as a complete package, pairing a 20A-rated receptacle with the mounting hardware needed for installation, so electricians and remodelers have everything required for a single countertop location in one part number. The Nickel finish is intended to coordinate with stainless steel appliances, faucets, and cabinet hardware commonly found in updated kitchens.
Key Features
- 20A Rating: Sized to handle the load of small kitchen appliances - blenders, mixers, coffee makers, and similar countertop equipment - on a dedicated counter circuit.
- Complete Kit Packaging: Includes the receptacle and mounting components needed for a countertop installation, reducing the number of separate parts to source for the job.
- Countertop-Specific Design: Engineered for kitchen counter, island, and peninsula mounting rather than a standard wall box, addressing locations where a conventional outlet is not practical or permitted.
- Nickel Finish: A clean, contemporary finish selected to blend with stainless steel appliances and modern kitchen hardware rather than stand out against the countertop.
- Bryant Manufacturing Quality: Produced by Bryant, a Hubbell brand with a long track record of spec-grade electrical devices for residential and commercial installations.

Bryant RCT220NI – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Bryant RCT220NI meant to mount in a countertop rather than a wall box?
Correct. The Bryant RCT220NI is configured for kitchen counter mounting, so it goes into the countertop surface or cabinet face rather than a standard wall box. That is the point of it: island and peninsula counters where there is no backsplash or wall plane to put a conventional duplex outlet in. If your outlet location is a stud wall behind the counter, a standard spec-grade wall receptacle is the right device instead.
2) Will a 20A kitchen counter receptacle handle a small-appliance circuit?
The RCT220NI is rated 20A, which matches the dedicated small-appliance branch circuits kitchens are wired with. Blenders, mixers, toasters and coffee makers all sit inside that rating. Feed it from a 20A circuit with 12 AWG conductors; do not put a 20A device on a 15A circuit expecting 20A of capacity.
3) What is the closest 20A 125V spec-grade alternative to the Bryant RCT220NI if the outlet can go in a standard wall box instead of the countertop?
The Bryant RCT220NI is a 20A receptacle in a kitchen counter mount configuration, so it is built for the counter surface rather than a wall box. If the location allows a conventional box, the Pass & Seymour IG5362-I is a heavy-duty spec-grade isolated ground duplex receptacle rated 20A 125V. It is a duplex device for standard box mounting and carries an isolated ground, which the Bryant counter kit is not described as providing.
4) What does the Bryant RCT220NI kit include, and do I need to buy mounting parts separately?
It ships as a kit: the 20A receptacle plus the mounting components for a countertop installation, so one part number covers a single counter location. You still supply the branch circuit wiring and whatever cutting tool the counter material requires.
5) What is the exact part number to order for the Bryant nickel counter receptacle kit?
Order Bryant RCT220NI, also catalogued as HUBRCT220NI. Bryant is a Hubbell brand, which is why you will see the HUB prefix on the same device.
6) Is this Bryant counter receptacle suitable for an industrial or wash-down area?
No. It is built for kitchen counters, islands, peninsulas and light commercial break-room counters. For industrial duty look at the Eaton Arrow Hart 5262W heavy-duty industrial duplex, and for hazardous locations the Appleton FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle or the Appleton U-Line ECS factory-sealed plug and receptacle set.
7) For a commercial kitchen where equipment gets plugged and unplugged constantly, should I spec the Bryant RCT220NI or a locking receptacle?
It depends on whether the cord should be able to pull free. The Bryant RCT220NI is a 20A kitchen counter receptacle kit for small-appliance countertop power. Where the connection must not be pulled loose, the Pass and Seymour Turnlok 3330 is a 30A non-NEMA single receptacle, and the Eaton 7379 is an industrial locking receptacle rated 50A, 600V/250V AC/DC with an extra heavy duty grade. Those are higher-amperage locking devices and require matching locking plugs, which standard small-appliance cords do not have.
8) Is the Bryant RCT220NI suitable for a hazardous or wash-down kitchen area, or do I need a sealed device?
The Bryant RCT220NI is a 20A kitchen counter receptacle kit with a nickel finish, intended for residential and light commercial countertop locations. For classified or sealed applications, the Appleton FSQC series is an interlocked explosionproof receptacle and the Appleton U-Line ECS set is a factory-sealed 15 and 20 amp plug and receptacle set with a 3-pole configuration. Those are enclosure-based devices, not countertop-mount kits, and they require their own mating plugs.
9) What finish is the Bryant RCT220NI counter receptacle, and will it match stainless appliances?
Nickel. It was picked to sit alongside stainless steel appliances, faucets and cabinet pulls rather than contrast with them, which is why it reads well on a remodel where the rest of the kitchen hardware is brushed metal.
10) Can I use the Bryant RCT220NI as a 15A replacement, or do I need a 20A device?
It is a 20A device and that is the only rating it comes in. If the location only calls for 15A, a 15A spec-grade receptacle such as the Eaton 816W commercial specification grade single or the Eaton 5262W 15A 125V 5-15R duplex covers it, though neither is a counter-mount device.
11) We standardize on single receptacles for dedicated appliance circuits - how does the Bryant RCT220NI compare to a spec-grade single outlet?
The Bryant RCT220NI is a 20A device supplied as a complete kit with the mounting hardware for one countertop location. If your standard is a single-outlet spec device in a box, the Eaton 6450W is a heavy-duty industrial specification grade decorator single receptacle accepting #14-10 AWG conductors, and the Eaton 816W-BOX is a commercial specification grade single receptacle rated 15A. Choose the Bryant kit when the outlet has to land in the counter surface itself.
12) Will a 277V specification receptacle work where the Bryant RCT220NI is called for?
No. The Bryant RCT220NI is a 20A receptacle for 125V small-appliance countertop circuits in kitchens. The Pass and Seymour 5762 is a duplex self-grounding receptacle rated 15A 277V, which is a different voltage class intended for other branch circuits and will not accept standard kitchen appliance plugs.
