GFCI outlets are crucial in moisture-prone areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and garages. Recognizable by their "test" and "reset" buttons, these outlets swiftly cut off power when detecting electrical imbalances, protecting individuals from shock risks. Unsure if your home needs GFCI outlets? Don't hesitate to reach out to our experts. Avoid electric shock or burns from faulty outlets by letting our skilled professionals guide you.

While GFCI outlets are essential in certain areas, understanding their limitations is equally important. Avoid using GFCI outlets for refrigerators or freezers due to electromagnetic interference. Most dryers and stoves should not be connected to GFCI outlets as they require 240-amp power outlets. Appliances with heating elements like hair dryers or toaster ovens can trip GFCI outlets. Refrain from overloading GFCI outlets with multiple devices through extension cords, as it may cause tripping.

Knowing GFCI Outlet Requirements
GFCI outlets have been mandatory for homeowners in specific areas since 1971. These outlets are vital for places exposed to water. Familiarize yourself with the implementation years for various locations in your home:
- Spas & Pool Areas (1971)

Proper operation of GFCI outlets is essential. If a GFCI outlet trips, simply press the "reset" button to restore power. More sensitive than circuit breakers, GFCIs reliably prevent electric shocks that could affect your heart rhythm. Monthly testing is recommended to ensure proper functionality. Follow these steps to test your GFCI outlet:
- Press the "test" button to interrupt the electrical flow.
- Plug in a small device with minimal electricity consumption (e.g., a night light) to verify no power flows.
- Press the "reset" button to restore power.
