Weather Resistant GFCI Outlet 15 Amp With Self Jamaica

A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is an important safety device which helps protect people from electric shock and electrocution due to hazardous ground-faults. Ground-faults occur when a current flows along an unintended path, such as through water or a person. Our blank face GFCI provides protection with a clean appearance in places where an outlet is not needed such as behind a hot tub or spa. Leviton GFCIs help protect people while meeting or exceeding National Electric Code® (NEC®) standards. No matter what your installation needs are, we have a GFCI that's right for you. An outdoor outlet must be able to withstand the elements. Our weather-resistant GFCIs feature stainless steel strap and screws, UV stabilized plastics and a cold impact resistance face and buttons. Required by the NEC for areas around the home within a close proximity to a water source (kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, basement, garage/carport, pool area). Patented reset/lockout feature prevents reset if the GFCI is unable to respond to a ground-fault or if it isn't wired properly.
