GFCIs have played a key role in reducing electrocutions. Even exposure to current as low as 100 ma current for only 2 seconds can cause death.
A ground fault circuit interrupter ( GFCI or GFI) is an inexpensive electrical switchgear device that can either be installed in your electrical system or built into a power cord to protect you from severe electrical shocks.Įlectric shocks can cause severe injury or even death.
