ELECTECK 5 Pack Outdoor GFCI Outlets 20 Amp with LED Indicator, Self-Test, UL Listed, White

The ELECTECK 20 Amp Self-Test GFCI Outlets come in a convenient 5-pack, designed specifically for outdoor use. These weatherproof (WR) GFI receptacles feature an LED indicator and include a screwless wall plate for easier installation. Certified by UL, these white GFCI outlets offer safety and reliability.

GFCI, which stands for Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter, differs from standard receptacles by incorporating a vital safety feature. Upon detecting a ground fault, a GFCI outlet will act swiftly to trip and cut off power within milliseconds. This quick response helps safeguard against electrical shock, providing peace of mind for families and individuals alike.

ELECTECK GFCI outlets are UL Listed, signifying their adherence to stringent quality standards and electrical code compliance. Each outlet is rigorously tested before leaving the factory to ensure it meets high safety and functional tolerances, allowing customers to trust in the reliability of ELECTECK’s products for their homes.

Utilizing advanced technology, these GFCI receptacles have been engineered to maintain exact tolerances for trip thresholds. This innovation ensures consistent safety and reliability while minimizing the risk of false tripping. Additionally, they are made from specially formulated ultraviolet stable thermoplastic, which protects against discoloration and degradation over time.

For added safety, these GFCI outlets are also tamper-resistant, featuring safety gates that prevent inappropriate objects from being inserted into the outlet. While plugging in devices might be a bit challenging initially, this feature becomes easier after multiple uses, enhancing home safety, especially for children.

The installation of these GFCI outlets is hassle-free, thanks to the inclusion of a high-quality screwless wall plate and screws. This saves both time and money during installation. However, users should be cautious not to unscrew the terminal screws excessively or with too much force, and power tools should be avoided when loosening these screws.

Key features of the 20 Amp GFCI outlet include:

1. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI): This receptacle is designed to detect ground faults in electrical wiring and promptly interrupt the flow of electricity, thereby reducing the risk of electrical shock. Prior to purchase, it's advisable to ensure that the electrical box's depth accommodates these GFCI outlets.

2. Automatic Self-Test: The outlets are equipped with a red LED light that blinks every 30 seconds to indicate a successful self-test. If the red light remains illuminated, it signals a test failure, indicating that the GFCI should be replaced immediately.

3. Weather Resistant Construction: The Weather Resistant (WR) designation indicates that these GFCIs are built with cutting-edge UV-stabilized materials, providing exceptional resistance against corrosion, temperature fluctuations, and UV exposure. This quality makes them well-suited for outdoor applications.

4. Tamper Resistance: Featuring spring-loaded shutters that close openings in the socket, these tamper-resistant receptacles offer an important line of defense for children's safety at home.

5. Easy Installation: The installation process is straightforward with the option for back or side wiring. Included with your GFCI outlets are screwless wall plates, screws, and detailed installation instructions to facilitate the setup process.

In summary, the ELECTECK 20 Amp Self-Test GFCI Outlets deliver exceptional safety features and user-friendly installation, ideal for protecting your home and loved ones from electrical hazards.
