  • GFCI outlets are essential in areas prone to moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and garages. They are easily identifiable by the presence of "test" and "reset" buttons on the receptacle. These outlets are designed to protect individuals from electrical hazards by promptly cutting off power when an electrical imbalance is detected. If you're uncertain about whether your home requires GFCI outlets, don't hesitate to reach out to us. Avoid the risk of electric shock or burns caused by faulty outlets, and let our experts guide you.

  • Installing GFCI outlets is only effective if you know how to operate them correctly. When a GFCI outlet trips and cuts off power, simply press the "reset" button to restore the electrical flow. GFCIs are more sensitive than circuit breakers, making them a reliable option for preventing electric shocks, which can adversely affect your heart rhythm. To ensure the proper functioning of your GFCI outlets, it's recommended to test them monthly. Follow these steps in order to test your GFCI outlet:

    • Press the "test" button to interrupt the electrical flow to the outlet.
    • Plug in a small device with minimal electricity consumption, such as a night light, to verify that no power is flowing to the receptacle.
    • Press the "reset" button to restore power to the outlet.

    Highly recommended! Installed my Tesla Charger and it was a difficult project with my breaker box in the basement but it was no issue at all.
