milliamperes or more. Since most persons can feel as little as 2 milliamperes,
a distinct shock may be felt if the need for protection exists. However, the
shock should be of such short duration that the effects would be reduced to
less than the normally dangerous level. However, persons with acute heart
problems or other conditions that can make a person particularly susceptible
to electric shock may still be seriously injured.
While the GFCI circuit breaker affords a high degree of protection, there is
no substitute for the knowledge that electricity can be dangerous when care-
lessly handled or used without reasonable caution.
Warning:
The GFCI circuit breaker provides protection only
to the circuit to which it is connected. It does NOT provide protection to
any other circuit.
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.
