Hubbell Wiring HBL5461R Specification Grade Heavy-Duty Straight Blade Single Receptacle, 20-Amp 250-Volt NEMA 6-20R, Red

The Hubbell Wiring HBL5461R is a specification grade, heavy-duty straight blade single receptacle engineered for demanding commercial and industrial power distribution. Rated 20-Amp, 250-Volt with a NEMA 6-20R configuration, this receptacle is finished in Red for quick visual identification of dedicated or isolated circuits. Specification grade devices like the HBL5461R are built to withstand frequent plug insertions and higher mechanical and electrical stress than standard residential-grade receptacles, making them a dependable choice for facilities, machine shops, and industrial plants that rely on 250-Volt equipment. The single receptacle configuration provides a dedicated outlet for equipment that requires consistent, uninterrupted power on its own circuit, and the NEMA 6-20R pattern ensures that only correctly rated 20-Amp, 250-Volt plugs can be inserted, reducing the risk of mismatched connections.

Key Features

  • Specification Grade Construction: Heavy-duty straight blade design engineered to outperform standard-grade devices in demanding commercial and industrial settings.
  • Electrical Rating: Rated 20-Amp, 250-Volt for reliable operation on higher-voltage dedicated circuits.
  • NEMA 6-20R Configuration: Matches with compatible 20-Amp, 250-Volt NEMA 6-20 plugs for correct, code-compliant connections.
  • Single Receptacle Format: Straight blade single receptacle design supports dedicated-circuit applications where a single piece of equipment requires its own outlet.
  • Straight Blade Design: Straight blade contacts provide a secure, low-resistance connection with mating 20-Amp, 250-Volt NEMA 6-20 plugs.
  • Red Housing: Distinct Red color aids in visual identification of dedicated, isolated, or specialty circuits on the plant floor.
  • Heavy-Duty Build: Constructed to handle frequent use and demanding environments typical of specification grade wiring devices.

Hubbell Wiring HBL5461R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a standard 120V plug fit the Hubbell HBL5461R receptacle?
No. The HBL5461R is a NEMA 6-20R configuration rated 20-Amp, 250-Volt, so it only accepts a mating NEMA 6-20 plug. A 120V 5-15 or 5-20 cord cap will not go in, and that is intentional: the blade pattern blocks mismatched connections. For 120V equipment you need a 5-20R device instead.
2) Is the HBL5461R a single or a duplex outlet, and does that matter for a dedicated circuit?
It is a single receptacle, one outlet per device, not a duplex. That is what you want on a dedicated circuit feeding one machine: there is no second opening for someone to tap the circuit with a second load. If you need two 250V outlets on the opening, you need a duplex 6-20R device rather than this one.
3) Can I use the HBL5461R on a 240V single-phase circuit for a welder or shop tool?
Yes, within its rating. The 6-20R pattern is a two-pole, three-wire grounding configuration rated 250 volts and 20 amps, which covers nominal 208V and 240V single-phase branch circuits. The load and the breaker both have to stay at 20 amps or less. Larger tools drawing 30 amps need a 6-30R device, not this one.
4) Why is the Hubbell HBL5461R red instead of the usual brown or ivory?
The red housing is for visual circuit identification. On a plant floor or in a facility where several voltages run side by side, red flags the outlet as a dedicated, isolated, or specialty circuit so nobody plugs general equipment into it. Electrically it is the same device as any other color in the configuration, the color is a marking convention, not a rating.
5) What does specification grade mean on a receptacle like the Hubbell HBL5461R?
Specification grade means the device is built for frequent plug insertions and higher mechanical and electrical stress than a residential-grade outlet. On the HBL5461R that shows up in the heavy-duty straight blade contact design, meant for machine shops, manufacturing floors and commercial facilities where cords get pulled daily. A residential-grade device in that service loosens its contacts and starts heating.
6) Does the Hubbell HBL5461R come with a wall plate?
No. The HBL5461R is the receptacle only. A single-receptacle 6-20R opening takes a single-gang plate with a round opening sized for that device rather than a standard duplex plate, so order the matching single-receptacle cover separately along with the box if the opening is new work.
7) What is the exact part number to order the Hubbell red 20A 250V single receptacle?
Order Hubbell Wiring HBL5461R. That single catalog number covers the device as described: specification grade, straight blade, single, 20-Amp 250-Volt NEMA 6-20R, red. There are no finish or amperage options to pick on it, the model is the whole specification.
