I am doing some work at a VA hospital. They want us to install floor boxes with four single receptacles in it along with voice and data. I have let them know that I am unable to get hospital grade receptacles in this style. These are being used at a nurse station on the normal power system and there emergency power system. I have looked thru the code book and it tells me that all receptacles at patient beds need to be hospital grade, but I can not find anything about the type of receptacles at other locations.
Do you know if we can or can not use NON- hospital grade receptacles in this application. The VA is telling me to use them and I do not feel it is a good choice and I am looking for a way to prove this to them.
Thanks
