The verdict
Hubbell holds 7 US patents across 13 technology areas, rank #35,666 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Hubbell Incorporated (delaware) has been granted 7 US utility patents between 2016 and 2024, placing Hubbell Incorporated (delaware) at rank #35,666 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01R (ELECTRICALLY-CONDUCTIVE CONNECTIONS; STRUCTURAL ASSOCIATIONS OF A PLURALITY OF MUTUALLY-INSULATED ELECTRICAL CONNECTING ELEMENTS; COUPLING DEVICES; CURRENT COLLECTORS). As a US Corporation, Hubbell Incorporated (delaware) is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Hubbell sits between Hoyos Integrity Corporation (7 patents, rank #35,662) and Human Design Medical, Llc (7 patents, rank #35,670) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 47.6/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 5 grants, compared with 2 in the 2015–2019 window, a +150% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Hubbell Incorporated (delaware)'s 12.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 13 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Hubbell Incorporated (delaware) against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Hubbell's 7 grants land it in the top 18% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
