Replace old or outdated outlets in your home or office with this Bright-Way GFCI outlet. Designed to switch the electrical current off whenever it detects an imbalance, the safety outlet helps to prevent dangerous electrical shocks and fires. The slots are tamper resistant, which helps to prevent curious children from pushing other metal items like pins and keys into the holes and getting a nasty shock. For added peace of mind, it features a self-test function that allows you to easily check that the unit is operating correctly. The GFCI receptacle can be installed using both side and back wiring methods, and it comes equipped with a matching wall plate that gives it a clean, finished look. The outlet and plate come in a classic white color that matches effortlessly with almost any décor style. The exterior surface of the GFCI outlet is made from durable plastic, which stands up to regular use with ease. This model is designed for use with 15 Amp plugs, which are the standard type used in most residential spaces.
