Leviton 15 Amp 125-Volt NEMA 5-15R SmartlockPro Weather and Tamper-Resistant Duplex GFCI Receptacle with LED, White

Product Overview

Testing a GFCI is a good way to verify that it is providing protection. While all GFCIs should be tested monthly, users often forget to conduct this test on a regular basis. Now there is a technology available that can supplement the manual testing and regularly conduct an automatic test of the circuit. In June of 2015 there was a revision to the UL (Underwriters Laboratory) standard 943 for Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupters that improves safety for the end-user by requiring GFCI manufacturers to integrate an auto-monitoring (self-test) feature that performs a periodic test to confirm that the GFCI can respond to a ground-fault and, if not, it must visually and/or audibly indicate to the user that it needs to be replaced.

• GFCI will continually test itself and alert the user if protection has been compromised
• Patented reset lockout feature prevents the GFCI from being reset if it cannot respond to a ground fault
• Conformal coated PC board to protect critical components from moisture, stainless steel straps and mounting screws and UV stabilized engineering thermoplastic
• Reduced depth makes it easier to install in electrical boxes
