This Tower Manufacturing 30334052 15-amp, 125V GFCI outlet box is a ground fault circuit interrupter that shuts off an electric circuit when the current flows along an unintended path, providing personal protection from ground faults and open neutral conditions. It has an automatic reset that restores functioning following a power interruption. Additional over current, short circuit protection is provided with an internal circuit breaker with an external reset button. This outlet adapter has a three-prong National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) 5-15P plug to connect to grounded outlets and converts any standard indoor electrical outlet into four grounded NEMA 5-15R outlets for heavy duty electrical tools and devices. The cord is waterproof for outdoor use. It has an impact-resistant case for durability and safety and dust covers on each outlet to reduce contamination. It has a red lighted ON-OFF rocker switch on the box and test and reset buttons on the plug for periodic testing of the device. This GFCI outlet box is suitable for use with heavy duty power tools and portable equipment on construction sites.

Specifications

Ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI) are used to monitor the amount of current going to and returning from equipment flowing through a circuit. If the flow is irregular, GFCIs interrupt the current. They help to prevent electrical fires and to reduce the risk of shock, burns, or electrocution. Designed to shut off power within 1/30th of a second, they are used with power tools, on construction sites, and near water sources in homes (kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms).

Tower Manufacturing makes electromechanical devices such as ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs), appliance switches, thermostats, and controls. The company, founded in 1957, is headquartered in Providence, RI.
