Pass & Seymour Hospital Grade 20A Self-Test Duplex GFCI Receptacle

The Pass & Seymour Hospital Grade Self-Test Duplex GFCI Receptacle delivers continuous ground-fault protection for critical electrical circuits in demanding environments such as hospitals and healthcare facilities. Rated 20A at 125VAC, this hospital-grade device features a self-test GFCI function, one-piece brass triple-wipe power contacts, and SafeLock® protection, and is cULus Listed for code-compliant, reliable performance in patient care and commercial settings. This receptacle is available in Gray and Red housing colors, so the shared 20A, 125VAC, self-test GFCI electrical specifications apply across both color options, letting contractors color-code circuits while maintaining identical hospital-grade performance.

Key Features

  • Amperage Rating: 20A duplex configuration built to handle demanding hospital-grade electrical circuits.
  • Voltage Rating: 125VAC rating suited for standard branch-circuit receptacle applications.
  • Self-Test GFCI: Hospital Grade GFCI self-test function continuously monitors ground-fault protection status without requiring manual monthly testing, helping maintain consistent life-safety protection.
  • Durable Construction: One-piece, brass, triple-wipe power contacts provide lasting retention and reliable, low-resistance connections for dependable long-term performance.
  • SafeLock® Protection: SafeLock® feature helps prevent improper wiring during installation, reducing callbacks and improving jobsite safety.

Pass & Seymour 2097-HGGRY – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Pass & Seymour 2097-HG GFCI receptacle actually hospital grade, or just commercial grade with a green dot look?
It's a true hospital grade device. The 2097-HG is a 20A, 125VAC self-test duplex GFCI built to hospital grade requirements, with one-piece brass triple-wipe power contacts for plug retention and low-resistance connections, and it is cULus Listed. That combination is what facility engineers look for in patient care areas, where ordinary commercial grade receptacles are not accepted.
2) If the opening does not require hospital grade or GFCI, what 20A 125V duplex receptacle can be used instead of the 2097-HG?
For a standard 20A, 125V duplex opening with no ground-fault or patient-care requirement, the Leviton 16352-1PW is a commercial grade heavy-duty straight blade duplex receptacle, 20A 125V, NEMA 5-20R, and the Leviton 16342 Decora Plus is a commercial grade duplex, 20-Amp 125-Volt NEMA 5-20R in white with a decorator face. Bryant also offers the 5362B series heavy-duty 20A/125V duplex. None of those carry the self-test GFCI function or the hospital grade construction of the Pass & Seymour 2097-HG, so they are not valid where a GFCI device is called for.
3) What is the closest hospital grade alternative to the Pass & Seymour 2097-HG duplex receptacle?
The Leviton 16262-HGW is the nearest hospital grade peer, a hospital grade duplex receptacle supplied in white and packed 100 to the box. The key functional difference is ground-fault protection: the Pass & Seymour 2097-HG is a self-test GFCI duplex rated 20A at 125VAC, while the Leviton 16262-HGW is a straight duplex receptacle without GFCI. Use the 2097-HG where the circuit itself must provide ground-fault protection, and the 16262-HGW on downstream or non-GFCI openings. Color also differs - the 2097-HG comes in gray and red for circuit color-coding, the Leviton in white.
4) Does a self-test GFCI still need to be tested monthly by maintenance staff?
The self-test function on the 2097-HG continuously monitors its own ground-fault protection status, so it does not depend on someone pressing the test button every month to confirm the circuit is still protected. For an MRO or facilities crew running hundreds of outlets, that is the practical reason to specify self-test: the device reports its own condition instead of relying on a walk-around schedule. Your own facility's testing policy still governs what you log.
5) What does SafeLock protection do on this GFCI, and does it help with miswiring callbacks?
SafeLock is Pass & Seymour's protection against improper wiring at install. On the 2097-HG it guards against the device being energized through the wrong terminals, which is the classic line/load reversal that leaves a GFCI feeding downstream outlets with no protection. For a contractor wiring a long run of patient-room outlets, it cuts the risk of a failed inspection and a return trip.
6) I need hospital grade outlets but not GFCI protection. What should I use instead?
If the location doesn't require ground-fault protection, a straight-blade hospital grade duplex is the cheaper and simpler fit. The Leviton 16262-HGW is a hospital grade duplex receptacle in white, supplied in packs of 100 for volume work. Reserve the 2097-HG self-test GFCI for the wet and damp locations and the circuits where ground-fault protection is actually called for.
7) Will this GFCI protect the outlets downstream of it on the same circuit?
A duplex GFCI wired with the downstream conductors on its load terminals protects the receptacles fed from it, which is how one 2097-HG can cover a string of standard outlets. Wire only the supply to the line terminals. The SafeLock feature on this device is there specifically to catch the line/load mistake that silently leaves those downstream outlets unprotected.
8) I need a 20A 125V duplex for an industrial plant, not a hospital. Is this overkill?
Probably. The hospital grade construction and self-test GFCI on the 2097-HG are aimed at patient care and critical care circuits. For heavy-duty industrial or shop duty at the same 20A/125V, the Bryant 5362B heavy-duty duplex is the straightforward choice, and the Bryant 21254IGO is a quad NEMA 5-20R 20A device if you need four outlets at one box. None of those are GFCI, so if the location is wet or damp and needs ground-fault protection, stay with the 2097-HG.
9) What should I specify instead of the 2097-HG in a hazardous or wash-down industrial area?
The Pass & Seymour 2097-HG is a 125VAC general-purpose wiring device for healthcare and commercial interiors. For classified or harsh industrial locations, the Appleton FSQC Series interlocked explosionproof receptacle and the Appleton U-Line ECS factory-sealed 15 and 20 amp plug and receptacle set, 3-pole, are the devices built for that duty. They are plug-and-receptacle style enclosures rather than flush duplex wiring devices, so the box and plate work differs entirely from a standard single-gang GFCI install.
10) Can the Bryant 5362BI be used where the 2097-HG is specified?
Only where GFCI protection is not part of the requirement. The Bryant 5362BI is a 20A/125V heavy-duty duplex receptacle, matching the 2097-HG on amperage, voltage, and duplex configuration, but it is a straight receptacle. The Pass & Seymour 2097-HG adds self-test GFCI protection, SafeLock protection against miswiring, and hospital grade construction, and is offered in gray and red.
11) How many Pass & Seymour 2097-HG receptacles come in a box?
They're packaged 10 each, which suits a floor or wing rollout rather than a one-off replacement. Order by color: 2097-HGGRY for gray, 2097-HGRED for red.
12) Is the 2097-HG approved for use in Canada as well as the US?
Yes, it carries a cULus Listing, which covers both the US and Canadian requirements for the device. That matters for anyone specifying the same hospital grade GFCI across facilities on both sides of the border.
13) For a high-abuse corridor or back-of-house area, is there a tougher receptacle than the 2097-HG?
The Pass & Seymour 2097-HG is built to hospital grade with one-piece brass triple-wipe power contacts and cULus Listing. Where impact resistance matters more than ground-fault protection, the Leviton 16251W is a commercial grade heavy-duty impact-resistant straight blade receptacle, and the Eaton 6450W is an industrial specification grade decorator single receptacle accepting #14-10 AWG. Both are non-GFCI devices, so they only substitute on circuits where ground-fault protection is provided elsewhere.
