GFCI 15a Tamper / Weather Proof Self-Test Receptacle UL943

These GFCI receptacles electronically detect electrical ground faults and quickly shut off the power to prevent serious shock. They feature tamper-resistant outlets to prevent insertion of foreign objects, internal automatic self-testing to ensure continuous protection, handy reset/test buttons and end-of-life LED indicator lights. These GFCIs feature backwiring for easy installation, replacing an existing outlet in as little as 15 minutes. Wallplate included!

• Termination takes #12 or #14 stranded or solid copper or copper-clad construction.
• Safe-Lock Protection: GFCI safety is improved. When miswired, these GFCI outlets have no power and can't be reset, making them safer than conventional receptacles.
• These GFCI feature an end-of-life monitoring function; They can't reset correctly when GFCI reaches the end of life.
• Improved resistance to surge and corrosion.

 

Auto-Monitoring or Self-Test Function. This Function allows for periodic, automatic testing of the ability of the GFCI to respond to a ground fault. If the Self-Test Function detects a problem, the GFCI must deny power or provide visual and/or audible indication.

Reverse Line-Load Misfire Function. If the line cable is wired to the load terminals of a receptacle GFCI, power to the receptacle face will be denied. This requirement applies to the initial installation and any subsequent reinstallation.
