- 15AMP / 125V
- GFI
- Duplex
Key Features:
- Can be used at interior wet locations
- GFCI receptacles detect ground faults (where electricity flows to ground instead of through the circuit) and disconnect power to prevent shock.
- Some models have tamper-resistant features to prevent children from inserting objects into the outlets.
Design Concepts:
- Locate at every sink per code
- Above bath and laundry counters
-
Protection in Wet Areas:GFCI outlets are particularly important in areas prone to moisture, like bathrooms and kitchens, where water can increase the risk of electrical shock.
-
Code Compliance:GFCI protection is often required by electrical codes in certain areas, particularly for bathrooms, kitchens, and garages.
-
Protects Multiple Devices:A GFCI receptacle protects not only the device plugged directly into it, but also any other devices on the same circuit that are downstream from the GFCI.
