Isolated Ground Devices
Isolating the grounding circuit
from harmonic distortion is an
efficient and economical way to
protect sensitive electronics from
operational degradation, disruption,
or damage. Cooper Wiring Devices
has responded to the growing
reliance on clean power systems
with a sophisticated selection of
isolated ground devices. Our line
includes products that cover a wide
range of applications hospital
grade, industrial and commercial
specification grade straight blade
and locking receptacles, transient
voltage surge suppressors, and
compatible plugs and pre-marked
wallplates. All are built for heavy
duty, designed for easy installation,
and manufactured to provide users
with years of dependable electrical
and electronic performance.
L Selecting the right grounding system and
wiring devices ones that completely isolate
the grounding circuit from the transient signals
that can be created by other noise producing
sources will provide protection for your
equipment and information needs.

When mounted in the box, grounding contacts
are connected to the box, fittings, conduit and
all other building ground system components
which can act as a large antenna for EMI and RFI.

All terminal (H-N-G) and mounting
screws nickel-plated, triple combination
(slot/Phillips/Robertson) head for
superior corrosion resistance and
maximum installer flexibility.

Long, broad mounting strap helps reach
large panel cutouts for Code compliance.

Automatic grounding system eliminates
need for bonding jumper in grounded
metal enclosure, provides redundant
measure of ground continuity where
jumper used.

Screw-Catch feature on duplex
devices speeds mounting of wallplates.
FEATURES

Exclusive 5-leaf brass line contacts ensure
lowest heat rise, smooth plug blade insertion
and long-term retention.

Rigid, glass reinforced nylon base lends ultimate
strength and superior high heat resistance in
contact carrier.

Unique screw terminal guards provide fast,
easy insulation from conductive surfaces.

Exclusive 0.030" (0.76mm) solid brass, non-
riveted, integral one-piece isolated grounding
shunt system assures ground integrity under
heaviest use isolated from common building
ground.

High impact and chemical-resistant nylon face.

Tapered lead-in slots on back wiring holes assist
in gathering stranded wires for faster, more
secure connections.
