Slim design saves valuable enclosure space, enabling higher density wiring in control panels and machine enclosures. The compact footprint translates into easier routing and reduced panel width, particularly in retrofit projects where every inch counts. Because it's designed for back and side wiring, installation is straightforward even in crowded junction boxes. This makes it ideal for automation installations that demand tidy, accessible outlets in tight spaces. Self-test functionality continuously monitors the integrity of the GFCI protection without manual testing. That means quicker fault detection, lower maintenance costs, and improved safety posture for critical equipment. In manufacturing lines, this reduces downtime during preventive maintenance and accelerates turnarounds for equipment upgrades. Back and side wiring supports flexible field installation and accommodates #14-10 AWG conductors. The 16 lbf-in torque rating ensures a secure, code-compliant termination that resists vibration in industrial environments. The combination minimizes common issues such as loose terminals and hot spots, improving overall reliability. Standard NEMA 5-15R configuration ensures compatibility with common outlets, reducing the need for adapters or special hardware. The 15A at 125V rating covers general-purpose receptacle needs on equipment, panels, and workstations. The light almond finish provides a neutral appearance for visible installations while meeting safety and color-coding expectations. Certifications such as cULus Listed and NOM support cross-border compliance and supplier confidence, while the slim GFCI's ED Box packaging simplifies logistics and reduces packaging waste. The combination of safety, space efficiency, and straightforward termination makes this receptacle a practical choice for industrial wiring devices and connectivity projects. Field technicians value the ease of testing and maintenance in demanding environments.

FAQs

To install the GF15LA, ensure the device is rated for 15A and 125V, then prepare conductors using #14-10 AWG. Use back and side wiring as designed, secure the terminals to the specified torque of 16 lbf-in, and mount the unit in an ED Box. Verify cULus Listed and NOM certifications for compliance, and connect to a NEMA 5-15R outlet. After wiring, test the self-test function to confirm protection is active and that there are no loose connections that could cause nuisance trips.
Yes. The GF15LA uses a standard NEMA 5-15R configuration, making it compatible with typical general-purpose outlets used in control panels and equipment enclosures. It supports back and side wiring with #14-10 AWG conductors and a 15A/125V rating. The slim design helps fit into tight spaces, and the self-test feature maintains ongoing protection without extra maintenance or adapters.
The GF15LA is cULus Listed and NOM certified, which covers safety and regulatory compliance for both North American and cross-border installations. These certifications assure installers and procurement teams that the device meets recognized standards, reducing risk during audits and helping streamline qualification processes for industrial wiring devices and connectivity components.
The GF15LA is well-suited for industrial control panels, equipment enclosures, and workstations where space is at a premium. Its slim design and 15A/125V rating accommodate general-purpose receptacles in automation environments, while the self-test feature reduces maintenance and downtime. It also supports retrofit projects where existing panels require compact, compliant GFCI protection without major rework.
Key considerations include wiring with #14-10 AWG conductors, securing each termination to 16 lbf-in torque, and choosing the ED Box packaging for proper mounting. Verify back and side wiring compatibility, confirm NEMA 5-15R configuration, and ensure self-test operation is active. Finally, confirm cULus Listed and NOM certifications are applicable to your project to maintain regulatory compliance.
