Why are GFCI’s important?
GFCI receptacles have been shown to reduce the danger of electrocution, especially in locations where contact with water is likely. Building codes have been modified to include GFCI circuits because reducing the hazard of direct shorts also decreases the hazard of household fire, and that means a safer community for everyone to live in. Ensure that GFCI’s protect your home, particularly any outside wiring or appliances.
