PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) socket is an electrical safety device that is designed to prevent electric shock by interrupting the circuit if there is an imbalance of electric current flow between the energized conductor and the neutral conductor. It is commonly installed in areas of the home where water is present, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor areas. The GFCI socket works by constantly monitoring the current flow and can detect even the slightest changes in the current, which can cause it to trip and cut off power to the circuit. It is a highly effective safety device that helps to protect against electrical shock and ensure the safety of people using electrical appliances around water.
The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires GFCI outlets in all wet or damp locations. The specifics of the code are updated regularly, so check the code itself for a full listing of current requirements.
GFCI receptacles must be in a location that is easy to access. Don’t place one behind heavy appliances such as a refrigerator or behind installed appliances like a dishwasher. An socket for a dishwasher should be installed in the cabinet next to it.
In newer homes, necessary circuit breakers and GFCIs are already installed, but they can stop working unexpectedly. It is important to know how to replace GFCI sockets when this happens.
GFCIs should be tested monthly to ensure they are providing protection. Press the TEST button, then the RESET button. If the indicator light does not go out and come back on, or if the GFCI cannot be reset, it must be replaced.
How to Install a GFCI Socket
A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle is a special type of outlet that can automatically shut off power directly at the socket when it detects an electrical fault. GFCI sockets should be installed in any potentially wet or damp area such as kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, outdoor spaces, basements, garages and workshops.
Damp areas can make you prone to dangerous electric shock, but using a GFCI socket can greatly reduce your risk of injury. This guide will teach you how to wire a GFCI socket and how to install GFCI sockets safely.
