Middle Atlantic 24S7212GBX99IV Plugmold 20A 6-Outlet Multioutlet Strip

The Middle Atlantic 24S7212GBX99IV is a 20-amp steel plugmold multioutlet strip designed for structured rack and raceway power distribution in commercial AV, security, and IT environments. At 6 feet (1.8 m) in length with six duplex outlets spaced 12 inches on-center, it gives integrators predictable outlet placement without the guesswork of bundled or unevenly spaced strips. TAA-compliant, making it eligible for U.S. federal and government-funded deployments where domestic sourcing matters.

Key Features

• Six Duplex Outlets at 12-Inch On-Center Spacing: Fixed 12-inch intervals mean you can plan device placement before installation and avoid the outlet conflicts common on tightly packed strips. Six duplex positions accommodate up to 12 plugs — enough for a populated rack shelf or a clean in-wall raceway run without daisy-chaining.
• 20-Amp Circuit Rating: Rated for a 20A feed, which matches standard dedicated branch circuits in commercial construction. This headroom matters in AV or security racks where multiple devices draw continuous load — a 15A strip on a 20A circuit leaves margin; a 20A strip does not become the weak link.
• 6-Foot (1.8 m) Run Length: The 72-inch body covers a standard 6U-to-12U rack height or a typical short raceway segment without field-cutting or splicing. Confirmed at 1.8 m per manufacturer data.
• GB Device Configuration: The GB designation in the Middle Atlantic V2400 series identifies this unit as a grounding/isolated-ground or standard-ground duplex configuration — appropriate for sensitive AV and security electronics where clean ground paths reduce noise and interference risk.
• TAA Compliant: Verified TAA compliance for this SKU means it can be specified on government contracts, GSA schedules, and projects with Buy American Act requirements without a waiver or substitution flag.
• Steel Construction (V2400 Series): The V2400 series uses steel housing, which holds up in rack and raceway environments where plastic strips can crack under cable load or heat cycling. Steel also provides a continuous ground path along the strip body.

Integration and Compatibility

The 24S7212GBX99IV is designed for use within Middle Atlantic raceway and rack power systems but its standard duplex outlets and 20A feed compatibility make it suitable for any commercial installation requiring a surface-mount or in-raceway power strip. The 12-inch on-center spacing is a standard interval that aligns with Middle Atlantic's V2400 series mounting accessories and raceway channels. Pair with appropriate raceway fittings and cover plates for a finished, code-compliant installation. When specifying for a rack, confirm your PDU or power feed circuit is 20A — running a 20A strip on a 15A circuit breaker removes the rating advantage and may require NEMA 5-20P to 5-15R adapters at the feed end, which should be avoided in permanent installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Middle Atlantic 24S7212GBX99IV TAA compliant?

A: Yes. TAA compliance is confirmed for this SKU, making it eligible for federal, state, and government-funded projects subject to Trade Agreements Act requirements.

Q: How many outlets does the 24S7212GBX99IV provide?

A: It has 6 duplex outlet positions, accommodating up to 12 standard plugs across its 6-foot length.

Q: What is the circuit amperage rating for the 24S7212GBX99IV?

A: The strip is rated for a 20-amp circuit. Ensure your branch circuit and feed plug match (NEMA 5-20P) to take full advantage of the 20A rating.

Q: What does the 12-inch on-center outlet spacing mean for installation?

A: Each duplex outlet is spaced 12 inches apart from the next, giving you a predictable layout across the 72-inch strip. This helps when pre-planning device placement in a raceway or rack before wiring begins.

Q: Can the 24S7212GBX99IV be used in a surface-mount raceway?

A: Yes. The V2400 series is a surface-mount plugmold system. It mounts to walls or inside compatible Middle Atlantic raceway channels and is not a rack-mount PDU — verify your mounting method before ordering.

The spec that drives most purchasing decisions on the 24S7212GBX99IV is the 12-inch on-center duplex spacing across a 72-inch steel body — in practice, that means six clean outlet positions that won't force you to choose between plugging in a wide-body wall-wart and losing an adjacent outlet. For integrators building out security or AV raceways in conference rooms, corridors, or security operations centers, that predictability is worth more than it sounds on paper.

Technical Highlights:

• 20A Rating: Matches dedicated 20A branch circuits standard in commercial construction — no derating, no adapter workarounds when wired correctly.
• 6 Duplex Outlets / 12-Inch OC: Six positions at fixed 12-inch intervals across 6 feet eliminates outlet conflict on a populated raceway run and allows device placement to be pre-planned on the drawing set.
• TAA Compliance: Verified for this SKU — specify it on GSA or federal contracts without a substitution flag or sourcing waiver.

Deployment Considerations:

• The V2400 series is a surface-mount plugmold system, not a rack-mount PDU — confirm your installation method (wall-surface, in-raceway channel, or under-desk) before ordering, as the mounting hardware differs.
• The 20A feed requires a NEMA 5-20P plug at the supply end; confirm your circuit breaker and feed receptacle match before installation, since NEMA 5-15 circuits will not accept a 5-20P plug without an adapter — avoid adapters in permanent commercial work.

The 24S7212GBX99IV is a strong fit for security integrators building clean power distribution into raceway systems in government facilities, courthouses, or any TAA-mandated environment where both outlet count and domestic sourcing compliance need to be locked in at specification time.
