High-performance Electrical Outlets | Electrical Outlets | Electrical | Petros
Transform every connection into a powerhouse with HEPâs high-performance electrical outlets, engineered to deliver rock-solid reliability in the most demanding industrial and commercial settings. Each outlet is crafted from premium, heat-resistant polymers and fortified with brass terminals that maximize conductivity, resist corrosion, and minimize energy loss. From precision-machined contact points that lock plugs firmly in place to integrated surge protection and tamper-resistant shutters, these units are designed to keep your critical equipment running safely and efficiently.
Choose from a full spectrum of configurationsâGFCI, USB-integrated, weather-proof, and heavy-duty locking modelsâeach rigorously tested to meet or exceed NEC, UL, and IEC standards. Quick-install mounting plates and clearly labeled terminals cut installation time in half, while the slim back-body design frees up valuable space in crowded junction boxes. Whether youâre retrofitting an oil platform, upgrading a data center, or specifying a new petrochemical plant, HEPâs electrical outlets empower your project with durability you can count on and performance you can measure.
FAQs
What distinguishes Petrosâ high-performance electrical outlets from standard receptacles?
Our outlets are engineered with premium copper-alloy contacts, a heat-resistant thermoplastic body, and a patented internal clamping design that delivers up to 20 A continuous load without overheating or voltage drop. This means steadier power delivery, extended device life, and reduced risk of nuisance tripping compared with conventional Grade-1 residential receptacles.
Can I install these high-performance outlets on the existing wiring in my home or business?
Yes. The outlets are designed for compatibility with 12- or 14-gauge solid copper branch-circuit wiring found in most North American installations. They accept both back-wire and side-wire terminations and feature clearly marked line/neutral polarity guides. If your wiring meets current NEC standards and is in good condition, no panel upgrades are necessary.
Do Petros high-performance outlets provide built-in surge or over-current protection?
Surge protection is available on our HP-SP series models, which incorporate a 900-J MOV module and indicator LED. All models include a thermal trip mechanism that disconnects power if internal temperatures exceed 90 °C. For whole-house surge protection, we still recommend a panel-mounted SPD in conjunction with these receptacles.
Are the outlets certified for safety and energy efficiency?
Absolutely. Every unit carries ETL and cULus listings, complies with the latest NEC tamper-resistant (TR) and weather-resistant (WR, on outdoor models) requirements, and meets UL 498 and UL 1449 (for SP series) standards. They are also RoHS-compliant and manufactured in an ISO-9001 facility to ensure consistent quality.
Do you offer smart or USB-charging versions of the high-performance outlets?
Yes. Our HP-USB line integrates two 30 W Power Delivery USB-C ports alongside standard 120 V sockets, while the HP-Smart series includes Wi-Fi connectivity for load monitoring, scheduling, and voice-assistant control. Both retain the same heavy-duty power contacts and safety certifications as the base models.
What is the recommended installation method and what kind of warranty is included?
We recommend installation by a licensed electrician, especially when upgrading multiple circuits or adding GFCI/AFCI protection. Each outlet ships with detailed instructions, mounting screws, and a wall plate. Petros backs every high-performance receptacle with a 5-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, plus a connected-equipment warranty up to $25,000 on surge-protected models.
