GFCI Outlet Services in Riverside
Reliable Electrical Outlet Installation in California
There are several types of electrical outlets available for use in homes and commercial spaces. One type, known as a GFCI outlet, or GFI outlet, can help to ensure your safety when using electrical appliances and outlets.
Understanding GFCI Outlets and Their Importance
GFCI or GFI outlets are designed to help protect you from electrical shocks and electrical fires that can occur from using appliances with damaged or worn cords, or from outlets that are damaged in some way. These outlets have two buttons—one black and one red—and a test button that can help to ensure your safety when using an appliance plugged into the outlet.
GFCI outlets are found in:
- Bathrooms
- Kitchens
- Living rooms
- Bedrooms
- Hallways
- Attic
- Basement
- Garage
While GFCI outlets are designed to protect you from electrical shocks, GFI outlets are designed to protect you from gas leaks. These outlets are found in areas where gas is present, such as in your kitchen or in your bathroom. These outlets have a button that reads “Gas” and are designed to turn off the electricity to the outlet if gas is detected. These outlets can be found in homes as well as in commercial spaces.
Benefits of Installing GFCI & GFI Outlets
Having GFCI and GFI outlets installed in your home or commercial space can help to protect you from electrical shocks and electrical fires that can be caused by using damaged appliances or outlets. These outlets can provide protection for you and your loved ones against electrical accidents that could potentially cause serious injury or death.
Having faulty or outdated GFCI or GFI outlets in your home or commercial space can prevent them from working to protect you from an electrical shock or electrical fire. Because these outlets are designed to trip at a very low level of electrical current, they need to be regularly checked and replaced if they are not working correctly. Because our Riverside electricians can routinely check and update your home’s GFCI and GFI outlets, you can be sure that you and your loved ones are protected against electrical shock or fire.
