Specifically designed for use with large and/or stationary appliances like refrigerators, dishwashers and washing machines, this 20A GFCI outlet provides dedicated power and superior ground-fault protection while also limiting the nuisance tripping often caused by variable motor drives. Like all GFCI electrical outlets and plugs from the radiant Registered Collection, this device s every three seconds for reliable safety and protection you can trust. Meeting the National Electrical Code requirements for ground fault protection in the home, GFCI wall outlets also make it easier to fix trips right where they happen – no more confusion or running to the breaker box. GFCI protection is required by code in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, basements, outdoor areas, and for any other outlets found within six feet of a sink or water source. GFCI outlets should always be used when replacing existing GFCI outlets during renovation. Made exclusively for use with screwless Wall Plates from the radiant Registered Collection, sold separately.
