It combines these contact materials with additional tensioning springs to address a practical concern in audio systems: keeping heavy power cables securely connected at the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCardas designed the springs to maintain a tight grip on plug blades through repeated insertion and removal.

Removable jumpers provide this flexibility, while independent ground connections allow grounding to the mounting bracket or an isolated-ground configuration. Installation and configuration should be handled by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes; isolated grounding does not mean operating without a safety ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeryllium-copper contacts with rhodium-over-silver plating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditional tensioning springs help retain heavy power cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable jumpers support shared or electrically separate receptacle configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependent ground connections accommodate conventional or isolated grounding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard screw-clamp wire termination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 4181US\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/b\u003e P10.30\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOutlet Type:\u003c\/b\u003e US duplex AC wall receptacle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCurrent Rating:\u003c\/b\u003e 20 A\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContact Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Beryllium copper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContact Plating:\u003c\/b\u003e Rhodium over silver\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTermination:\u003c\/b\u003e Standard screw clamp\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReceptacle Configuration:\u003c\/b\u003e Shared or electrically separate upper and lower receptacles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrounding:\u003c\/b\u003e Independent ground connections configurable for bonding to or isolation from the mounting bracket\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cardas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54025216983224,"sku":"P10.30","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/cardas4181usduplexoutlet.jpg?v=1788971561","url":"https:\/\/upscaleaudio.com\/products\/cardas-4181-us-duplex-wall-outlet","provider":"Upscale Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
