GFCI (ground-fault circuit-interrupter) protection is required for many receptacles (outlets) throughout the house and outdoors. This protection can be provided either by a GFCI breaker or GFCI receptacles. There are advantages and disadvantages to each approach, depending on the installation.
A GFCI receptacle is different from conventional receptacles. In the event of a ground fault, a GFCI will trip and quickly stop the flow of electricity to prevent serious injury. Definition of a ground fault: Instead of following its normal safe path, electricity passes through a personâs body to reach the ground.
