In the event of a short, GFCI outlets cut off the electricity to the outlet, preventing damage to the circuit. Measuring circuits connected to the distribution part of theīuilding’s low-voltage MAINS installation. A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outletalso known as a GFI outletis an outlet that monitors the balance of electricity that goes through a circuit. Klein Tools RT310 AFCI GFCI Outlet TesterĬAT III: Measurement category III is applicable to test and Measurement category III is applicable to test and measuring circuits connected to the distribution part of the building’s low-voltage MAINS installation A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle is a special type of outlet that can automatically shut off power directly at the outlet when it detects an electrical fault.I looked in a junction box, and found all the neutral wires coming from the subpanel were all connected at the junction box. Built to withstand a 6.6-Foot (2 m) drop 1 I have a GFCI that does not trip with the plug tester.Powers off automatically after approximately 2 minutes of non-use to conserve battery life.Uses 3 x 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries (included).Low battery indicator and easily accessible battery compartment.Electrical plug is on a 10-Inch (254 mm) flexible electrical cord to access electrical outlets in difficult to reach locations The Gardner Bender GFCI Outlet Tester plugs into any standard 120-Volt outlet and indicates the wiring condition of the outlet.Designed to test North American-style grounded electrical outlets in 120V AC circuits (incorporates a three-pin plug).


Tester delivers clear visual indication of the wiring condition at the electrical outlet.Capable of detecting a dual-open wiring fault with simultaneous open neutral and open ground wires (patent pending technology).Test GFCI devices by simulating ground fault conditions.Test AFCI devices by simulating arc fault conditions.Detects the most common wiring faults in standard, AFCI, and GFCI electrical outlets.
