GFCI Protection Adapters
A GFCI protection adapter puts ground fault protection between the outlet and the tool. It monitors the current going out and coming back, and opens the circuit when the difference shows that current is leaking to earth. It is the protection required for portable equipment used outdoors and in damp locations.
The adapter plugs into a standard NEMA outlet and provides a protected outlet for the appliance cord.

How These Are Built
Cord sets in this category are moulded on our own tooling with first class producing equipment and advanced mould processing equipment. Cable gauge and type, conductor count, cord length, jacket colour and the connector at the appliance end are all set on the order rather than fixed by a catalogue number. Complete OEM services are available and all products are RoHS compliant.
How OEM orders workFrequently Asked Questions
What does a GFCI do?
It compares outgoing and returning current and cuts the circuit when the imbalance shows current is leaking to earth.
Is it the same as a fuse?
No. A fuse protects the wiring against overload. A GFCI protects a person against an earth fault.
Where should it be used?
On portable equipment used outdoors, on damp floors or anywhere a permanent protected outlet is not available.
Which outlet does it fit?
It plugs into a standard NEMA outlet and gives a protected outlet for the tool cord.
