What is a GFCI Outlet?

You are no stranger to the GFCI outlet. You have probably used one hundreds of times. They have been around since the early 1960s, and the National Electrical Code has continued to expand their usage throughout the home, including the bathroom and kitchen areas as well as any exterior receptacles. A conventional outlet has two slots and a hole. The larger of the two slots is neutral; the other is hot; the hole is the ground wire. The circuit runs from hot to neutral. A ground fault occurs when electricity escapes the wiring in a given appliance or fixture and seeks to ground itself. If you are currently operating said appliance or fixture, then it will try to use you as a conduit. The GFCI outlet shuts off the circuit when it detects a change in the amount of electrical current running from hot to neutral.
