CONTROLS & FEATURES
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) Receptacle
Each 120 V 20 A duplex receptacle is protected by a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for protection against the shock hazard of
ground-fault currents.
An example of ground-fault current is the current that would flow
through a person who is using an appliance with faulty insulation and,
at the same time, is in contact with an electrical ground such as a
plumbing fixture, wet floor, or earth. The GFCI will protect against
current flowing through that person.
The GFCI will not protect against short circuit or overloads.
GFCIs can be expected to interrupt power supply if there are ground
faults or stray current imposed on the wiring by other electrical
devices, wiring, or equipment. Due to the risk of a power interruption,
this generator is not recommended for powering medical or life
support equipment.
