Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter GFCI
What is a GFCI?
A GFCI receptacle is different from
conventional receptacles.
ln the event of a
ground fault, a GFCI will trip and quickly
stop the flow of electricity to prevent
serious injury.
Dennition of a ground fault:
Instead of following its normal safe path,
electricity passes through a person' s
body to reach the ground. For example, a
defective appliance can cause a ground
fault.
A GFCI receptacle does not protect
against circuit overload, short circuits, or
shocks.
For example,you can still be
shocked if you touch bare wires while
standing on a non- conducting surface
such as a wood floor.
