GFCI s are proven lifesavers, however, consumers need to take a few minutes each

month to do this simple test. By taking action, you can help protect your family from

the risk of electric shock.

GFCI Breaker

Perform this test on the GFI Breaker each month and record the date on the chart.

1. With handle B in “ON” position, press PUSH TO TEST button A.

2. Handle B should move to TRIP position, indicating that GFCI breaker has opened

the circuit.

3. To restore power move handle B to “OFF” and the to “ON

Important: If handle B does not move to TRIP position when test button is pressed,

the GFCI breaker protection is not complete. If this happens, replace GFCI breaker.

GFCI Receptacle

To properly test GFCI receptacles in your home:

Push the “Reset” button located on the GFCI receptacle, first to

assure normal GFCI operation.

Plug a nightlight (with an “ON/OFF” switch) or other product (such

as a lamp) into the GFCI receptacle and turn the product “ON.”

Push the “Test” button located on the GFCI receptacle. The nightlight or other product

should go “OFF.”

Push the “Reset” button, again. The light or other product should go “ON” again.

If the light or other product remains “ON” when the “Test” button is pushed, the GFCI

is not working properly or has been incorrectly installed (miss wired). If your GFCI is

not working properly, call a qualified, certified electrician who can assess the situation,

rewire the GFCI if necessary or replace the device.
