Leviton Weather-Resistant GFCI Outlet

The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is a crucial safety device that helps prevent electric shock and electrocution caused by dangerous ground-faults. Ground-faults occur when an electrical current strays along an unintended path, such as through water or a person. Our Blank Face GFCI offers protection with a sleek design in locations where an outlet is not necessary, like behind a hot tub or spa. Leviton GFCIs not only safeguard individuals but also meet or exceed the standards set by the National Electric Code® (NEC®). No matter the requirements of your installation, we have the perfect GFCI for you. Options in the Leviton range include Standard, Weather-Resistant, Combo GFCI/USB, Combo GFCI/Switch, Guide Light, Audible Alert, Wi-Fi GFCI, Blank Face, Dual-Function AFCI/GFCI, and GFCI Circuit Breakers. An outdoor outlet must be durable enough to withstand various weather conditions. Our weather-resistant GFCIs are equipped with features like a stainless steel strap and screws, UV stabilized plastics, and a face and buttons that resist cold impacts. These GFCIs consistently shield against electric shock and electrocution by cutting off power upon detecting a ground-fault. They are mandatory as per NEC regulations for areas within close proximity to water sources in a household, such as the kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, basement, garage/carport, and pool area. A patented reset/lockout function prevents resetting the GFCI in case it fails to respond to a ground-fault or if it is not correctly wired. An automatic self-test is routinely performed to ensure ongoing safety. Furthermore, an LED indicator offers easy-to-understand feedback on the power and protection status.
