What exactly does "Hospital Grade" mean?

Like everything else in a hospital it probaly just means they charge 5 times what it is worth!

"Hospital Grade" takes the place of "Mil-Spec" now that the U.S. healthcare system has overtaken the Military with regards to power and waste.

I tried them all and I did not noticed any difference. I have a BAT VK-6200 and it works the same in a PS Audio Duplex receptacle as it does on a $0.49 Home Depot cheapie.

Switching to a duplex outlet without nickel plating on the internal brass components is not a bad thing. Using some contact cleaner with it is even better. My house, which is only a few years old has the newer, designer outlets and switches. These things are junk inside but cost more, go figure. I recommend the hospital grade outlet just for a tighter, more secure connection.

No one at a hospital checks the force required to remove a plug.
(My boss is going to laugh when he hears that.)
