Tripp Lite by Eaton Safe-IT UL 2930 Medical-Grade Power Strip for Patient Care Vicinity, 6 Hospital-Grade Outlets, Safety Covers, Antimicrobial, 6 ft. Cord, Dual Ground
In fast-paced healthcare environments, dependable power delivery is as critical as the care provided at the bedside. The Tripp Lite by Eaton Safe-IT UL 2930 Medical-Grade Power Strip is purpose-built to meet the demanding needs of patient care vicinities. Engineered to power movable plug-connected equipment attached to IV poles, crash carts, monitors, infusion pumps, and other essential devices, this six-outlet power strip combines hospital-grade safety with infection-control considerations and practical design. The PS-606-HGDG provides a reliable, clutter-reducing power solution that stays out of the way of caregivers, wheeled equipment, and patient comfort while delivering consistent performance when it matters most. From busy emergency departments to crowded hospital wards, this device helps clinicians maintain patient safety and workflow efficiency by reducing the number of power cords and outlets required around critical care stations. With its antimicrobial housing, protective safety features, and dual grounding, the Safe-IT power strip is a trusted companion for modern clinical environments that demand hygiene, reliability, and straightforward maintenance.
- UL 2930 Medical-Grade Certification ensures compliance with the strict safety and performance standards required for medical devices used near patients. This designation reflects rigorous testing for reliability, electrical integrity, and safe operation in patient care vicinities, giving clinicians peace of mind during high-stakes moments when every second counts.
- Six Hospital-Grade Outlets provide ample, dependable power for multiple devices on wheels—IV poles, infusion pumps, monitors, and more—without the need for multiple power strips cluttering critical care spaces. The hospital-grade NEMA 5-15R-HG outlets are designed to stand up to heavy daily use in demanding clinical settings.
- Antimicrobial, Durable Housing incorporates materials and finishes engineered to inhibit the growth of bacteria and yeast on the device surface. This feature supports infection-control protocols in patient rooms, corridors, and carts, while the rugged construction stands up to frequent cleaning with approved hospital-grade disinfectants.
- Safety Covers and Dual Grounding deliver enhanced protection and electrical safety. Outlet safety covers help prevent accidental contact when outlets are not in use, and the dual grounding design contributes to added protection against electrical faults in environments with high device activity and varying grounding conditions.
- 6 ft Cord for Flexible Placement offers the reach needed to position the power strip where it’s most useful, enabling caregivers to keep essential equipment powered without forcing devices into awkward positions or creating tripping hazards. The length supports placement near IV poles, carts, and bedside stations while maintaining clean, organized cabling.

How to install Tripp Lite Safe-IT UL 2930 Power Strip
- Choose a safe, accessible location near the equipment you plan to power, ensuring the area is dry and away from liquids or splash zones to protect both devices and users.
- Uncoil the 6 ft cord and extend it to a grounded hospital-grade wall outlet. Verify that the outlet can handle the anticipated load (up to 15 amps typical for a hospital-grade strip) and that the outlet is not shared with high-inductive equipment that could cause voltage fluctuations.
- Place the power strip on a stable surface or mount it in a position that minimizes crowding around wheels and doors. Keep cords organized to prevent entanglement with wheels, beds, or other moving equipment.
- Access the outlets as needed by folding back the safety covers; when devices are connected, ensure plugs are fully seated and that no outlet is overloaded. Use the antimicrobial housing as part of ongoing cleaning routines, following your facility’s approved disinfectant guidelines.
- Test each connected device after installation to confirm proper power delivery and monitor for signs of overheating or tripped breakers. Maintain clear air space around the power strip to preserve ventilation and reduce the risk of heat buildup during prolonged use.
