GFCI Clause Samples
The GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) clause requires that certain electrical outlets or circuits be equipped with GFCI protection to prevent electrical shock hazards. In practice, this means that outlets in areas with higher risk of moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, or outdoor locations, must have GFCI devices installed to automatically cut off power if a ground fault is detected. This clause ensures enhanced safety for occupants by reducing the risk of electrical shock, addressing a critical safety concern in electrical installations.
GFCI. Advise contractor that all tools are required to have ground fault circuit interrupters (where electricity is supplied by contractor).
GFCI. All electrical tools, lights and extension cords used outside or in damp locations must be insulated, isolated, or GFCI protected, and, in all instances, must conform to 29 CFR 1926.404.
