USB Charger Receptacles and Outlets
Q & A
Why Design with a USB Charger?
• The USB Receptacle is a permanent solution for device charging, compatible with all USB
powered portable devices. No more misplaced chargers or dealing with outlet clutter.
• The Hubbell USB Receptacle is designed to last. Its current transformer converts AC power
to DC, providing clean, stable power, low heat, and longevity. Plug-in cubes and adapters
tend to have a short product life, making the USB Receptacle the economical choice.
• Offering an industry-leading 3 amps of power at 5V DC, the Hubbell USB Duplex has
the power to charge your device quickly. The 4 Port has 5 amps of available power for a
similarly rapid charge.
Performance vs. Energy

When it is not active, the USB Duplex enters a sleep mode and consumes minimal power.
The 4 Port cuts power completely when the shutter is closed, making it our “Go Green”
recommendation.
Where Should a USB Outlet be Installed?
• Anywhere people work, meet or rest, they need access to charging power. Common
spaces for charging include desks, counter-tops and end-tables. If you’ve seen a portable
charger in a wall-box, it’s a good choice for a permanent solution.
• It’s not just for private homes: USB Receptacles are quickly becoming a standard in

How Fast Does it Charge?
There are many variables which determine total charging time like battery age, cord quality
and length, and device condition. Hubbell’s USB Chargers are designed to deliver more
amperage. This enables you to get more power immediately when plugging in multiple
portable devices. The individual ports will allocate power as determined by the portable
devices. Below is testing done on some of the most popular products.
