New Leviton outlet (it seems)

Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

Hi all,
I had previously tested Leviton hospital grade outlets, but found them to be terrible, having a nasty signature *AFTER* breakin. They had a bronze contact system. Looking through home depot last night, I came across a type I hadn't seen before. Gray body, nylon, triple wipe contacts, rear 'clamping plate' type wire insertion, but most curiously- the contacts appear to be copper (or, if not copper, a VERY light shade of bronze). These are industrial nylon units, I only found the copper/bronze in the grey type (sorry, can't find the part number)
Just a heads up to outlet testers out there. My first inclination is that they'd sound like their hospital grades of similar construction, but not one to assume full knowledge, I'll test them out anyway.. at the bare minimum they're a quality build, and will hold up.
