Watertight polycarbonate housing protects against rain, splashes, and dusty conditions, reducing corrosion risk and unsafe conditions—translating to fewer field incidents and lower repair costs on outdoor sites. The 120 V, 15 A circuit interrupter provides reliable protection for common tools and equipment, helping you meet NEC requirements while maintaining workflow continuity and reducing nuisance trips. A 6 ft #12 AWG cord extends reach with minimal voltage drop, enabling safer distancing from damp surfaces and water hazards in crowded work zones. The NEMA 5-15 straight-blade plug is compatible with standard outlets, simplifying immediate deployment without adapters or custom cables, which speeds up setup and minimizes mis-wiring errors. Automatic reset resets after a ground fault, cutting downtime and enabling faster resumption of operations in wet or humid environments. With a compact polycarbonate housing and a rugged 4X enclosure, this unit is ideal for portable power distribution on construction sites, outdoor events, and service calls, delivering measurable safety and productivity gains with minimal maintenance.
