Prevent electrical shocks with GFCI outlet installations
One of the best precautions that you can take to protect you and your family is to invest in GFCI outlets. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are devices that protect against electric shock, especially in areas where moisture is expected. The devices detect variances in the electrical current and if there’s a problem, automatically shut off power to that part of the circuit.
When you want to use your appliances or outlets without fear of being shocked, then upgrade to GFCI outlets. If you want to upgrade old non-grounded two-pronged outlets to three-pronged, grounded outlets without installing new wires, then ask your electricians for GFCI devices. GFCI outlets also prevent electrical shocks from faults in the electrical devices plugged in the outlets. When a fault is detected, the GFCI device will shut off power to the outlet and devices to prevent the user from being shocked. Each GFCI outlet comes with a test and a reset button. These buttons allow you to test your GFCI outlets – which you should do at least monthly for safety reasons, and to reset your outlet when it trips from protecting you from an electrical shock.

GFCI outlets are highly recommended for:
