GFCI OUTLETS

If an outlet is near water, it needs to be GFCI protected—period. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets are designed to shut off power instantly when they detect even a small leak of electricity, protecting you from shocks and electrical fires. At Residential Electric, we install, replace, and troubleshoot GFCI outlets (sometimes called GFI outlets) in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas to keep your home safe and up to code.
