FAQs
To install, prepare the enclosure, strip wires to the #14-10 AWG range, and insert wires into the back and side terminals per the device wiring diagram. Tighten to 16 lbf-in torque, secure the device in the ED Box, and verify NEMA 5-20R alignment. The slim form factor simplifies routing in tight spaces and minimizes enclosure intrusion.
Yes. The GF20GY is a NEMA 5-20R GFCI receptacle designed for 20A, 125V circuits and supports back and side wiring with #14-10 AWG. It ships in an ED Box and is suited for standard electrical enclosures, making retrofit or new installations straightforward in dense panel environments.
The GF20GY is cULus Listed with NOM certification, indicating compliance with North American safety and performance standards. These certifications help satisfy regulatory requirements for electrical installations in commercial and industrial facilities and support procurement with verified safety credentials.
The slim design reduces front-to-back footprint, freeing space for additional devices and easier routing of conductors. In practice, this means faster installations, less panel congestion, improved cooling, and easier future upgrades in high-density electrical rooms and control panels.
Self-test GFCIs automatically verify ground-fault sensing circuitry, reducing manual testing and improving safety. This lowers maintenance labor costs and minimizes downtime due to undetected faults, delivering a clear return on investment in facilities with frequent power cycling or critical equipment.
