20 Amp Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter
Model EH-05
GFCI receptacles can prevent serious injury by monitoring the balance of current flow in a circuit. When a ground fault is detected, such as when a person touches a defective appliance that is "hot" due to defective wiring or other problem, the GFCI will immediately detect the condition and cut off electric power to the outlet. The device can then be reset, providing continuous protection against fatal electrical shock. The National Electrical Code now requires Ground Fault protection for outlets servicing countertops, wet/damp locations and all new residential construction.
