FAQs
Install the GFI12A466 by ensuring the supply receptacle matches the L5-20 locking configuration and the 120 V circuit is within 20 A. Connect the 25 ft #12 AWG cord to a compatible power source, place the unit in a dry, accessible location, and verify NEC compliance. After any fault, the automatic reset will reenergize once conditions are safe, simplifying setup on job sites.
The device is NEC compliant, features a NEMA 4X watertight enclosure, and uses a locking L5-20 plug for secure connections. It is designed for 120 V, 20 A circuits and is suitable for wet locations, delivering reliable protection in harsh outdoor environments.
Ideal for construction sites, outdoor events, maintenance work, and any temporary power installation in wet or dusty locations. The 25 ft cord and locking plug simplify deployment across remote sites, while the 4X enclosure ensures continued protection in challenging conditions, maintaining safety and uptime.
Yes. With a locking L5-20 plug, 25' cord length, and a 120 V, 20 A rating, it integrates smoothly with common portable power setups used on job sites, equipment trailers, and temporary power distributions, reducing extension-cord clutter and enhancing connection security.
Regularly inspect the GFCI for signs of wear, ensure the locking connector remains secure, and test functionality after exposure to wet conditions. Since it uses automatic reset, verify that the protective mechanism resets properly once fault conditions are cleared, and replace any damaged cords or housing to maintain NEC compliance and safe operation.
