- For an added layer of protection, the GFCI regularly conducts an automatic internal test to confirm that it can respond to a ground fault
- Provides continuous ground fault protection detects and trips on actual ground fault even when self test is being conducted
- Status indicator light shows power and protection status as well as indication of line/load reversal
- Patented lockout action prevents reset if GFCI is damaged and cannot respond to a ground fault
- Slim, shallow design reduced depth makes it easier to install
- GFCI Outlet - Constructed with premium high-impact resistant thermoplastic materials and rational structure design, ensures superior strength and durability. it a single gang GFCI electrical box that supports a standard duplex, grounded receptacle; Safe electrical GFCI outlet tester with TEST and RESET buttons and LED Indicator is designed to meet local and national electrical codes.
- Safty - The ANKO GFCI USB Outlet meets ETL-Listed E472427, 20 Amp, 125 Volt, 60HZ. Tamper Resistant Receptacle prevents young children from inserting unwanted objects into the outlets. For an added layer of protection, the GFCI regularly conducts an automatic internal test to confirm that it can respond to a ground fault, provides continuous ground fault protection.
- Weather Resistant - Constructed with advanced UV stabilized engineering to provide superior corrosion, temperature, and UV resistance, preventing discoloration and aging, ideal for outdoor & indoor use. Ground fault circuit interrupter GFCI outlets are required in kitchens and bathrooms and within 25 feet of heating, air conditioning and refrigeration equipment to prevent electrical shock in areas subject to moisture.
- Self Test - Two Indicator Light provides simple, intuitive feedback on power and protection status. If the indicator (LED) glows green, you have installed the GFCI receptacle correctly and it is working properly.
