UL 6233 certification and Federal Spec 6233 Class 01 compliance provide hospital-grade safety assurances, reducing risk of non-compliance and costly field failures in medical environments. This translates to lower maintenance costs and higher equipment uptime in clinics and industrial panels where reliability is non-negotiable. The nylon body and brass contacts deliver corrosion resistance and high conductivity, extending service life and lowering replacement frequency in harsh environments. Back-wire termination supports fast, secure field installations, cutting labor time and boosting wiring consistency across assemblies. The 125V, 20A rating with a 5-20R receptacle ensures broad cord compatibility and standardized power distribution in both medical devices and industrial gear. Finally, a compact 2.23 in L × 2.1 in H × 3.61 in W footprint simplifies panel layouts and inventory planning for tight enclosures and automation modules.

FAQs
AH8319HG employs a back-wire termination method suitable for #18-12 AWG conductors, allowing secure, streamlined field assembly. To maximize reliability, ensure conductors are properly stripped to the specified length and seated fully under the appropriate clamp screws with torque applied to the recommended 14 lbf-in. This minimizes loose connections and potential arcing in demanding environments such as clinics and control panels.
AH8319HG is UL-recognized and compliant with Federal Specification 6233 Class 01, reflecting hospital-grade safety and performance. These certifications matter because they indicate the connector is designed for environments requiring stringent safety, reliable grounding, and durable operation in both medical settings and industrial equipment cabinets, reducing risk and regulatory concerns for procurement teams.
Yes. AH8319HG is a 5-20R receptacle configuration rated for 125V and 20A, designed to accept #18-12 AWG conductors via back-wire termination. This compatibility supports common power cords used in healthcare facilities and industrial environments, enabling consistent, field-ready terminations with minimized rework and downtime.
The AH8319HG excels in hospital-grade equipment connections and rugged control panels where reliable grounding and secure terminations are essential. It suits medical devices, diagnostic gear, and industrial automation panels that require a two-pole, three-wire grounding configuration and compact, easy-to-service connectors for high-usage environments.
By combining durable nylon body construction, brass contacts, and UL 6233 compliance, AH8319HG minimizes replacement costs and service calls. Its back-wire design reduces installation time, lowers labor costs, and provides long-term reliability across medical and industrial deployments, delivering measurable ROI through higher uptime and simpler inventory management.
